Slow earthquakes are characterized by a wide spectrum of fault slip behaviors and seismic
radiation patterns that differ from those of traditional earthquakes. However, slow …

Despite decades of observational, laboratory and theoretical studies, the processes leading
to large earthquake generation remain enigmatic. However, recent observations provide …

Seismology is experiencing rapid growth in the quantity of data, which has outpaced the
development of processing algorithms. Earthquake detection—identification of seismic …

Earthquake prediction, the long-sought holy grail of earthquake science, continues to
confound Earth scientists. Could we make advances by crowdsourcing, drawing from the …

The recent expansion of dense GPS networks over plate boundaries allows for remarkably
precise mapping of interseismic coupling along active faults. The interseismic coupling …

Subduction zone megathrust faults host Earth's largest earthquakes, along with multitudes of
smaller events that contribute to plate convergence. An understanding of the faulting …

Earthquake swarms may be driven by fluids, through hydraulic injections or natural fluid
circulation, but also by slow and aseismic slip transients. Understanding the driving factors …

The Pawnee M5. 8 earthquake is the largest event in Oklahoma instrument recorded history.
It occurred near the edge of active seismic zones, similar to other M5+ earthquakes since …

Foreshocks may provide valuable information on the nucleation process of large
earthquakes. The 2021 Ms 6.4 Yangbi, Yunnan, China, earthquake was preceded by …

Repeating earthquakes, or repeaters, are identical in location and geometry but occur at
different times. They appear to represent recurring seismic energy release from distinct …
