A Nonplanar Slow Rupture Episode during the 2000 Miyakejima Dike Intrusion

Magmatic intrusions release extensional strain in the Earth's crust upon availability of magma. Intrusions are typically accompanied by earthquake swarms and by surface faulting that is often larger than what is expected from the magnitude of the …

Propagation of Coulomb Stress Uncertainties in Physics-Based Aftershock Models

Stress transfer between earthquakes is recognized as a fundamental mechanism governing aftershock sequences. A common approach to relate stress changes to seismicity rate changes is the rate-and-state constitutive law developed by Dieterich: these …

The Relationship between Afterslip and Aftershocks: A Study Based on Coulomb-Rate-and-State Models

The spatiotemporal clustering of earthquakes is a feature of medium- and short-term seismicity, indicating that earthquakes interact. However, controversy exists about the physical mechanism behind aftershock triggering: static stress transfer and …
