Abstract: The generating mechanism and process of slow earthquakes can help us to better understand the seismogenic process and the petrological evolution of the subduction system, but they are still not very clear. In this work… read more here.

Abstract: Slow tectonic events, such as deep tectonic tremor, low-frequency earthquakes, very low frequency earthquakes, and slow slip events, are regarded as “broadband slow earthquakes”. Various observational properties of these events have previously been explained using… read more here.

Abstract: Tectonic faults fail in a spectrum of modes, ranging from earthquakes to slow slip events. The physics of fast earthquakes are well described by stick–slip friction and elastodynamic rupture; however, slow earthquakes are poorly understood.… read more here.

Abstract: Several interplate seismic events, such as short-term slow slip events (S-SSEs) and low-frequency earthquakes (LFEs), have been identified in the Ryukyu Trench, southwestern Japan. As one of the specific characteristics of this seismicity, the depths… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s40623-018-0797-5
Abstract: The water in Earth’s mantle is closely related with plate subduction and volcanism. Recent studies revealed that the mantle wedge corner at approximately 30 km depth holds high-pressure water, where many slow earthquakes occur. To quantify… read more here.
