From geodetic imaging of seismic and aseismic fault slip to dynamic modeling of the seismic cycle
JP Avouac - Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2015 - annualreviews.org
Understanding the partitioning of seismic and aseismic fault slip is central to seismotectonics
as it ultimately determines the seismic potential of faults. Thanks to advances in tectonic …

Slip rate deficit and earthquake potential on shallow megathrusts
Most destructive tsunamis are caused by seismic slip on the shallow part of offshore
megathrusts. The likelihood of this behaviour is partly determined by the interseismic slip …

Supercycle at the Ecuadorian subduction zone revealed after the 2016 Pedernales earthquake
Large earthquakes are usually assumed to release all of the strain accumulated since the
previous event, implying a reduced seismic hazard after them. However, long records of …
