Data assimilation for fault slip monitoring and short-term prediction of spatio-temporal evolution of slow slip events: application to the 2010 long-term slow slip event in the Bungo Channel, Japan
Monitoring and predicting fault slip behaviors in subduction zones is essential for understanding earthquake cycles and assessing future earthquake...

Temporary slip speed increases during short-term slow slip events with durations of one to three hours
Temporary slip speed increases with durations of 1–3 h were identified during short-term slow slip events in records of borehole and laser...

Detection of a recent large Hyuga-nada long-term slow slip event and estimation of its spatiotemporal slip distributions
Using horizontal and vertical GNSS time series data from the GSI in sotheastern Kyushu from January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2022, we detected a recent...

Spatiotemporal slip distribution associated with the 2012–2016 Tokai long-term slow slip event inverted from GNSS data
We used Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) time series data to estimate the spatiotemporal slip distribution for a long-term slow slip event...

Slow slip along the Hikurangi margin linked to fluid-rich sediments trailing subducting seamounts
Large seamounts and basement relief cause permanent deformation when they collide with the overriding plate at subduction zones. The resulting...

Time-dependent modeling of slow-slip events along the Nankai Trough subduction zone, Japan, within the 2018–2023 period
According to a 2013 report by the Earthquake Research Committee of Japan, it was estimated that the probability of the occurrence of the next Nankai...

Long-term slow slip events with and without tremor activation in the Bungo Channel and Hyuganada, southwest Japan
Slow slip events (SSEs) lasting for approximately 1 year occur every 6–8 years around the Bungo Channel in the southwest Japan subduction zone. The...

Bayesian Estimation of Fault Slip Distribution for Slow Slip Events Based on an Efficient Hybrid Optimal Directional Gibbs Sampler and Its Application to the Guerrero 2006 Event
An efficient Bayesian approach is proposed to infer fault slip from geodetic data in a Slow Slip Event (SSE). The physical model of the slip process...

Variable slip mode in the past 3300 years on the fault ruptured in the 2012 M 5.6 Pernik slow earthquake in Bulgaria
The 2012 M5.6 Pernik earthquake in Bulgaria proceeded at slow slip rates and was accompanied with ground failure along the Meshtitsa fault scarp. Our...

Slow slip event in the focal area of the 1975 Kurile tsunami earthquake inferred from unusual long-term seismic quiescence
In subduction zones, slow slip events (SSEs) have been observed in the portion deeper than the downdip edge of seismogenic zone. However, since it is...

Simulation of great earthquakes along the Nankai Trough: reproduction of event history, slip areas of the Showa Tonankai and Nankai earthquakes, heterogeneous slip-deficit rates, and long-term slow slip events
Great earthquakes have occurred repeatedly along the Nankai Trough, but only for recent events are details known, such as rupture areas and time lags...

Relationship between strain accumulation and release associated with recent slow slip events on the Japanese Islands
In this study, we investigated the relationship between the strain accumulation before a slow slip event (SSE) and the strain release during the SSE...

Slow slip events following the afterslip of the 2002 Mw 7.1 Hualien offshore earthquake, Taiwan
Geodetic evidence for slow slip recurrence changed by stress perturbations was rare, especially from afterslip following a nearby large earthquake....

Comment on “Spatial changes in inclusion band spacing as an indicator of temporal changes in slow slip and tremor recurrence intervals” by Nishiyama et al.
A recent paper by Nishiyama et al. (Earth, Planets, and Space 73:126) examined syntectonic quartz veins to constrain temporal variations in the...

Eight-year catalog of deep short-term slow slip events at the Nankai trough based on objective detection algorithm using strain and tilt records
In subduction zones, slip deficit monitoring along the plate interface is important for understanding the seismogenesis of megathrust earthquakes. In...

Joint inversion of strain and tilt data using the Akaike’s Bayesian information criterion to map detailed slip distributions of short-term slow slip events
Along the Nankai Trough subduction zone, southwest Japan, short-term slow slip events (SSEs) are commonly detected in strain and tilt records. These...

Physical conditions and frictional properties in the source region of a slow-slip event
Recent geodetic studies have shown that slow-slip events can occur on subduction faults, including their shallow (<15 km depth) parts where tsunamis...

Long-lived shallow slow-slip events on the Sunda megathrust
During most of the time between large earthquakes at tectonic plate boundaries, surface displacement time series are generally observed to be linear....

Reply to comment by Williams on “spatial changes in inclusion band spacing as an indicator of temporal changes in slow slip and tremor recurrence intervals”
Our recent paper (Nishiyama et al. in Earth Planets Space 73:126, 2021) suggested that the sealing time of a crack-seal event recorded in...

Laboratory Study on Fluid-Induced Fracture Slip and Permeability Evolution in Marble Fractures
The increased fluid pressure in faults/fractures can trigger the decrease of shear strength and induce the faults/fractures to become instable. A...
