These deeper planes are extensions of plate boundaries located in seismic gap areas of megathrust earthquakes. I believe that computer simulations of such slow slip events should help us to ...

Non-volcanic tremor ramp up precedes slow slip in Cascadia by about a day, indicating that brittle-creeping process ...

While our scenario is the “big one”, a M9.0 megathrust earthquake, this study is not a simulation because of the unpredictable nature of earthquakes. Rather, it is an assessment of what critical ...

Forecasting the size of future megathrust earthquakes and tsunamis by exploiting the new technology of offshore and onshore geophysical observations. We aim to assess the potential for megathrust ...

A megathrust is a very large earthquake that occurs in a subduction ... as well as police and military institutions, holds a simulation of what we should do when the megathrust disaster occurs ...

In six of these cases, an earthquake of magnitude-8.0 or greater occurred within a week of a magnitude-7.0 level temblor striking. The advisory, which is officially called “megathrust earthquake ...

Earthquakes of this relatively small size are common in the Pacific Northwest, with most of them occurring out in the ocean. The last big, “megathrust” earthquake in the region, along the 600 ...
