Earthquakes along the shallow South American subduction zone exhibit heterogeneous rupture characteristics, going back several centuries of the earthquake record in this area …
This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …
The assimilation of geological, geophysical, and laboratory data in physics-based models of fault dynamics promises increasingly realistic simulations of the seismic cycle. To assist this …

Source parameter scaling for major and great thrust‐faulting events on circum‐Pacific megathrusts is examined using uniformly processed finite‐fault inversions and radiated …
Along the western margin of South America, plate convergence is accommodated by slip on the subduction interface and deformation of the overriding continent,,,,,. In Chile,,,, Bolivia …
Abstract The 11 March 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku (M w 9.0) Earthquake ruptured a 200 km wide megathrust fault, with average displacements of~ 15–20 m. Early estimates of …
Abstract The 11 March 2011 Tohoku Earthquake ruptured the interplate boundary off-shore of east Japan, with fault displacements of up to 40 m and a rupture duration of 150–160 s. W …
The Papua New Guinea (PNG) tsunami of July 1998 was a seminal event because it demonstrated that relatively small and relatively deepwater Submarine Mass Failures …
