Slow earthquakes, including low-frequency earthquakes, tremor, and geodetically detected
slow-slip events, have been widely detected, most commonly at depths of 40–60 km in …

Kaolinite is the major clay mineral and dispersed widely in topsoil and subsoil in the world.
The structural, electronic, and mechanical properties of kaolinite are closely related to their …

Epidote is a common hydrous mineral present in subduction zones subject to greenschist
metamorphic conditions–and potentially an important control on the fault stability-instability …

Talc‐rich rocks are common in exhumed subduction zone terranes and may explain
geophysical observations of the subduction zone interface, particularly beneath Guerrero …

The long‐term state of stress in the subduction forearc depends on the balance between
margin‐normal compression due to the plate‐coupling force and the margin‐normal tension …

Hydrothermal alteration occurs in upper-mantle fault zones and significantly modifies the
rheological properties of ultramafic rocks. To understand how hydrothermal alteration affects …

Talc is commonly found in the cores of exhumed faults and may be important to the
dynamics of slip in active fault zones. To understand the rheology of talc at conditions …
