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 …

Abstract The 2011 March 11 Tohoku-oki great (Mw 9.1) earthquake ruptured the plate
boundary megathrust fault offshore of northern Honshu with estimates of shallow slip of 50 m …

We develop new empirical scaling laws for rupture width W⁠, rupture length L⁠, rupture
area A⁠, and average slip D⁠, based on a large database of rupture models. The database …

Subduction zone plate boundary megathrust faults accommodate relative plate motions with
spatially varying sliding behavior. The 2004 Sumatra‐Andaman (Mw 9.2), 2010 Chile (Mw …

Many studies have modeled the Tohoku tsunami of March 11, 2011 as being due entirely to
slip on an earthquake fault, but the following discrepancies suggest that further research is …

We describe two transient slow slip events that occurred before the 2011 Tohoku-Oki
earthquake. The first transient crustal deformation, which occurred over a period of a week in …

A data set of earthquake hypocenters and associated traveltime residuals for seismic
phases recorded by seismograph stations globally is an essential starting point for most …

Source parameter scaling for major and great thrust‐faulting events on circum‐Pacific
megathrusts is examined using uniformly processed finite‐fault inversions and radiated …

Here, I present a database of> 160 finite fault models for all earthquakes of M 7.5 and above
since 1990, created using a consistent modeling approach. The use of a common approach …

Focal mechanism and slip history of the 2011 M w 9.1 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku, Japan
earthquake were derived rapidly from teleseismic body and surface waves. Multiple double …
