DOI: 10.1029/2018gl081168
Abstract: Double seismic zones are ubiquitous features of subduction zones, where seismicity is distributed along two layers separated by a region with significantly less seismic activity. Dehydration embrittlement is thought to be responsible for earthquakes in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1061/(asce)nh.1527-6996.0000426
Abstract: AbstractDespite the potential of high-consequence events, rarity of earthquake occurrences in moderate seismic zones and a misconstrued perception of risk has often led to a delayed onset of seismi... read more here.
