Journal ArticleDOI
Mélange rheology and seismic style
Ake Fagereng,Richard H. Sibson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the proportion of competent and incompetent material is a significant factor affecting seismic style within subduction channel shear zones, and along comparable mixed-lithology fault zones, with shear surfaces localized along lithological contacts or within competent domains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterizing the seismogenic zone of a major plate boundary subduction thrust: Hikurangi Margin, New Zealand
Laura M. Wallace,Martin Reyners,Ursula Cochran,Stephen Bannister,Philip M. Barnes,Kelvin Berryman,Gaye Downes,Donna Eberhart-Phillips,Ake Fagereng,Susan Ellis,Andrew Nicol,Robert McCaffrey,Robert McCaffrey,R. John Beavan,Stuart Henrys,Rupert Sutherland,D. Barker,Nicola Litchfield,John Townend,Russell Robinson,Rebecca E. Bell,Kate Wilson,William Power +22 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review existing geophysical and geological data in order to characterize the seismogenic zone of the Hikurangi subduction interface, and find that a large area of the interface is interseismically coupled, along which stress could be released in great earthquakes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shear veins observed within anisotropic fabric at high angles to the maximum compressive stress
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe shear veins within the Chrystalls Beach accretionary melange, New Zealand, and suggest that episodic slip was facilitated by the anisotropic internal fabric, in a fluid-overpressured, heterogeneous shear zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Explanation of Episodic Tremor and Slow Slip Constrained by Crack-Seal Veins and Viscous Shear in Subduction Mélange
Kohtaro Ujiie,Kohtaro Ujiie,Hanae Saishu,Ake Fagereng,Naoki Nishiyama,Makoto Otsubo,Haruna Masuyama,Hiroyuki Kagi +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported that the minimum time interval between low-angle brittle thrusting at near-lithostatic fluid overpressures within viscous shear zones may be explained by frequent release of accumulated strain by ETS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Slow slip source characterized by lithological and geometric heterogeneity

Screaton,Uma Shankar,Srisharan Shreedharan,Evan A. Solomon,X. Wang,H.-Y. Wu,Ingo Pecher,Leah J. LeVay,Iodp Expedition Scientists +53 more
TL;DR: Observations suggest that SSEs and associated slow earthquake phenomena are promoted by lithological, mechanical, and frictional heterogeneity within the fault zone, enhanced by geometric complexity associated with subduction of rough crust.
