Life and death of slow-moving landslides

P Lacroix, AL Handwerger, G Bièvre - Nature Reviews Earth & …, 2020 - nature.com
In the most destructive and catastrophic landslide events, rocks, soil and fluids can travel at
speeds approaching several tens of metres per second. However, many landslides …

A review on slow earthquakes in the Japan Trench

T Nishikawa, S Ide, T Nishimura - Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023 - Springer
Slow earthquakes are episodic slow fault slips. They form a fundamental component of
interplate deformation processes, along with fast, regular earthquakes. Recent …

The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip

R Bürgmann - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018 - Elsevier
Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a
vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from …

Laboratory observations of slow earthquakes and the spectrum of tectonic fault slip modes

JR Leeman, DM Saffer, MM Scuderi… - Nature communications, 2016 - nature.com
Slow earthquakes represent an important conundrum in earthquake physics. While regular
earthquakes are catastrophic events with rupture velocities governed by elastic wave speed …

Stable cree** fault segments can become destructive as a result of dynamic weakening

H Noda, N Lapusta - Nature, 2013 - nature.com
Faults in Earth's crust accommodate slow relative motion between tectonic plates through
either similarly slow slip or fast, seismic-wave-producing rupture events perceived as …

Triggering of the 2014 Mw7.3 Papanoa earthquake by a slow slip event in Guerrero, Mexico

M Radiguet, H Perfettini, N Cotte, A Gualandi… - Nature …, 2016 - nature.com
Since their discovery two decades ago,, slow slip events have been shown to play an
important role in accommodating strain in subduction zones. However, the physical …

Frictional properties of shale reservoir rocks

AH Kohli, MD Zoback - Journal of geophysical research: solid …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
We performed laboratory friction experiments on shale samples from three hydrocarbon
reservoirs to assess compositional controls on fault slip behavior accompanying hydraulic …

Slow earthquakes and nonvolcanic tremor

GC Beroza, S Ide - Annual review of Earth and planetary …, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Nonvolcanic tremor is observed in close association with geodetically observed slow-slip
events in subduction zones. Accumulating evidence points to these events as members of a …

Understanding rate effects in injection-induced earthquakes

M Alghannam, R Juanes - Nature communications, 2020 - nature.com
Understanding the physical mechanisms that underpin the link between fluid injection and
seismicity is essential in efforts to mitigate the seismic risk associated with subsurface …

Slip-rate-dependent friction as a universal mechanism for slow slip events

K Im, D Saffer, C Marone, JP Avouac - Nature Geoscience, 2020 - nature.com
A growing body of observations worldwide has documented fault slip transients that radiate
little or no seismic energy. The mechanisms that govern these slow slip events (SSEs) and …
