- 1From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 75, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedIn subduction zones, slip deficit monitoring along the plate interface is important for understanding the seismogenesis of megathrust earthquakes. In the last two decades, aseismic slip transients, such as slow slip...
- 2From:European Journal of Mineralogy (Vol. 34, Issue 6) Peer-ReviewedThe ferric iron content in hydrothermally altered ultrabasic rocks and their major minerals, serpentines and Mg-chlorites, is important for establishing the oxidation state budget from oceanic ridges to subduction zones,...
- 3From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 74, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe Izu-Bonin-Mariana Subduction System (IBM) is one of the longest subduction zones in the world with no instrumental history of shallow focus, great earthquakes (Mw > 8). Over the last 50 years, researchers have...
- 4From:Doklady Earth Sciences (Vol. 498, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedA relative decrease in the fraction of large aftershocks in the first days after earthquakes in subduction zones is demonstrated, and a connection of this phenomenon with aseismic stress release is shown. Author(s): P....
- 5From:Solid Earth (Vol. 13, Issue 7) Peer-ReviewedUnderstanding the long-term evolution of Earth's plate-mantle system is reliant on absolute plate motion models in a mantle reference frame, but such models are both difficult to construct and controversial. We present a...
- 6From:Solid Earth (Vol. 13, Issue 9) Peer-ReviewedObservations of sediments at subduction margins appear to divide them into two classes: accretionary and erosive. Accretionary margins are dominated by accretion of thick piles of sediments (1 km) from the subducting...
- 7From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 74, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe S-wave velocity (Vs) structure of sediments and the uppermost crust in the landward slope of a subduction zone are important for determining the dynamics of the overriding plate. Although distributed acoustic sensing...
- 8From:Progress in Earth and Planetary Science (Vol. 9, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedBack-arc spreading is a non-steady-state process exemplified by the repeated cycles of spreading of the South Fiji and the Lau Basins behind the Tonga arc, and the Parece Vela Basin and the Mariana Trough behind the...
- 9From:Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (Vol. 175, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedAqueous fluids produced by dehydration of the downgoing slab facilitate chemical exchange in subduction zones, but the efficiency of fluid-mediated redox transfer as a mechanism to deliver oxidized material from the slab...
- 10From:Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (Vol. 176, Issue 12) Peer-ReviewedUnderstanding how halogens are distributed among usual hydrous silicates in the lithosphere is important to constrain their deep geochemical cycle and fluid-rock interactions in subduction zones. This article presents...
- 11From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 74, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe critical taper model best describes the first-order mechanics of subduction zone wedges. The wedge geometry, which is conventionally defined by two parameters, slope angle and basal dip angle, accounts for the...
- 12From:Solid Earth (Vol. 13, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe objective of this work is to analyse the density structure of the continental forearc in the northern segment of the 1960 M.sub.w 9.6 Valdivia earthquake. Regional 2D and local 3D density models have been obtained...
- 13From:Progress in Earth and Planetary Science (Vol. 9, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake generated a surprisingly large near-trench slip, and earth scientists have devoted significant attention to understanding why. Some studies proposed special rupture mechanisms, such as...
- 14From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 75, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedA recent paper by Nishiyama et al. (Earth, Planets, and Space 73:126) examined syntectonic quartz veins to constrain temporal variations in the recurrence intervals between slow slip and tremor events. The authors claim...
- 15From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 73, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedThe study of slow earthquake activity, which occurs in the shallow and deep sides of seismogenic zone, is crucial for understanding subduction zones, including variations in frictional properties with depth and...
- 16From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 73, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedGreen's functions (GFs) for elastic deformation due to unit slip on the fault plane comprise an essential tool for estimating earthquake rupture and underground preparation processes. These estimation results are often...
- 17From:Earth, Planets and Space (Vol. 73, Issue 1) Peer-ReviewedSurface waves from the 2017 M.sub.w8.2 Tehuantepec earthquake remotely triggered tectonic tremors in the Jalisco region, approximately 1000 km WNW in the northern Mexican subduction zone. This is the first observation of...
- 18From:Solid Earth (Vol. 13, Issue 3) Peer-ReviewedWhat controls the location and segmentation of mega-earthquakes in subduction zones is a long-standing problem in Earth sciences. Prediction of earthquake rupture extent mostly relies on interplate coupling models based...
- 19From:Solid Earth (Vol. 11, Issue 4) Peer-ReviewedUnderstanding the behavior of halogens (Cl, Br, and I) in subduction zones is critical to constrain the geochemical cycle of these volatiles and associated trace metals, as well as to quantify the halogen fluxes to the...
- 20From:Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology (Vol. 175, Issue 10) Peer-ReviewedAntigorite is considered as the most important source of water in subduction zones, playing a key role during arc magma genesis. Although, these magmas seem more oxidized than mid-oceanic ridge basalts (MORB), the...
