Among the wide range of thermal, petrologic, hydrological, and structural factors that
potentially affect subduction earthquakes, the roughness of the subducting seafloor is …

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 …

Faults in Earth's crust accommodate slow relative motion between tectonic plates through
either similarly slow slip or fast, seismic-wave-producing rupture events perceived as …

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 …

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 …

In the first edition, we paid attention not only to tsunami waves, but to related phenomena,
namely, seaquakes, as well, which to a significant extent reflected the interests of the …

Constraints on the recurrence times of subduction zone earthquakes are important for
seismic hazard assessment and mitigation. Models of such megathrust earthquakes often …

Abstract The 2011 Mw 9.0 Tohoku‐oki earthquake is one of the world's best‐recorded
ruptures. In the aftermath of this devastating event, it is important to learn from the complete …

A dense GPS network deployed in Ecuador reveals a highly heterogeneous pattern of
interseismic coupling confined in the first 35 km depth of the contact between the subducting …
