Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Fault Slip Monitoring: Simulation, Frictional Parameter Estimation, and Prediction on Slow Slip Events in a Spring-Slider System J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-12-06 Rikuto Fukushima, Masayuki Kano, Kazuro Hirahara
The episodic transient fault slips called slow slip events (SSEs) have been observed in many subduction zones. These slips often occur in regions adjacent to the seismogenic zone during the interseismic period, making monitoring SSEs significant for understanding large earthquakes. Various fault slip behaviors, including SSEs and earthquakes, can be explained by the spatial heterogeneity of frictional

Along the strike of subduction zones, tectonic tremor episodicity is segmented on a geologic scale. Here, we study how this segmentation reflects large-scale variations of the structure and conditions of the fault interface where tremor is generated. We try to understand which properties of the hydraulic system of the fault allow elementary tremor sources to synchronize, leading to the emergence of

Do Subducted Seamounts Act as Weak Asperities? J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-11-20 Sungho Lee, Eunseo Choi, Christopher H. Scholz
The additional work of ploughing makes seamounts more resistant to subduction and more strongly coupled than smoother areas. Nevertheless, the idea that subducted seamounts are weakly coupled and slip aseismically has become dominant in the last decade. This idea is primarily based on the claim that a seamount being subducted in the southern Japan Trench behaves this way. The key element in this assertion

Lithospheric Structure Controls Sequentially Active Detachment Faulting at the Longqi Segment on the Southwest Indian Ridge J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-11-14 Ming Chen, Chunhui Tao, Lars H. Rüpke, Yunlong Liu, Hanchuang Wang, Sibiao Liu
Oceanic detachment faulting, a major mode of seafloor accretion at slow and ultraslow spreading ridges, is thought to occur during magma-poor phases and be abandoned when magmatism increases. In this framework, detachment faulting is the result of temporal variations in magma flux, which is inconsistent with recent geophysical observations at the Longqi segment on the Southwest Indian Ridge (49°42′E)

Omphacite Melting and the Destruction of Early High-Pressure Rock Records J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-11-12 Shuaiqi Liu, Guibin Zhang, Lifei Zhang, A. Alexander G. Webb
The presence of eclogite marks high-pressure metamorphism and deep, cold burial of crust, and is therefore a widely accepted indicator for the onset of modern-style plate tectonics. However, eclogite is rarely preserved in many heavily granulite-overprinted orogens, which are particularly common across ancient metamorphic terranes (i.e., Archean and Paleoproterozoic terranes). Here, we show that eclogite

Stratified thin layers often present a prominent mechanical contrast with regard to the embedding background and, hence, are important targets for seismic reflection studies. An efficient way to study the reflectivity response of these thin layers is to employ their homogenized viscoelastic equivalents. We aim to homogenize a simple, yet realistic, thin-layer model, which is composed of a finite non-periodic

Seismicity in the New Madrid seismic zone and the rest of stable North America remains controversial. Some workers view present-day earthquakes there as long-lived aftershocks; others view them as background seismicity concentrated in lithospheric weak zones. Separating long-lived aftershocks from background seismicity, however, is challenging. Here, we used the nearest-neighbor (NN) method to identify

Constraining Historical Earthquake Sequences With Coulomb Stress Models: An Example From Western Türkiye J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-26 M.-L. Diercks, Z. K. Mildon, S. J. Boulton, E. Hussain, C. Alçiçek, C. Yıldırım, T. Aykut
Knowledge of earthquake source faults is crucial for the calculation of robust Coulomb stress models. However, source faults are often poorly constrained, especially for pre-instrumental events, and these historical earthquakes are commonly studied with little or no consideration of other nearby events. We introduce an approach using Coulomb Stress Transfer (CST) modeling to investigate historical

Detection of Long- and Short-Term Slow Slip Events Using a Network Inversion Filter and Dense Global Navigation Satellite System Network in Shikoku, Japan J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-23 Shinzaburo Ozawa, Hiroshi Munekane, Hisashi Suito
The study of slow slip events is essential to elucidating the slip mechanisms and frictional properties of plate interfaces. We imaged the aseismic slip at the plate interface between the subducting Philippine Sea Plate and overriding Amur Plate beneath Shikoku Island, Japan, by applying a network inversion filter to the position time series obtained from Global Navigation Satellite System data spanning

Postseismic Deformation in the Northern Antarctic Peninsula Following the 2003 and 2013 Scotia Sea Earthquakes J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-23 Grace A. Nield, Matt A. King, Achraf Koulali, Nahidul Samrat
Large earthquakes in the vicinity of Antarctica have the potential to cause postseismic viscoelastic deformation affecting measurements of displacement that are used to constrain models of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA). In November 2013, a Mw 7.7 strike-slip earthquake occurred in the Scotia Sea, 650 km from the Antarctic Peninsula. GPS time series from the northern Peninsula show a change in

Equations of State and Phase Boundaries of SiO2 Polymorphs Under Lower Mantle Conditions J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-20 Guoge Li, Zhiming Zhang, Xiaoguang Niu, Jin Liu, Juan Li, Wei Wang, Zhigang Zhang
SiO2 is an important modally abundant component of terrestrial planets, while there are few studies that quantitatively determine the properties of silica under simultaneously high-temperature and high-pressure conditions. In this study, thermal properties of stishovite, CaCl2-type SiO2 and seifertite have been obtained by using extensive first-principles simulations. The quasi-harmonic approximation

Continental Fragments in the South China Block: Constraints From Crustal Radial Anisotropy J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-17 Tingzi Li, Mingming Jiang, Liang Zhao, Yang Chu, Weihua Yao, Bo Wan, Ling Chen, Yinshuang Ai, Thomas Bodin, Huaiyu Yuan
The lithospheric architecture of the South China Block (SCB) is crucial to understanding the formation and evolution of this distinctive and highly reworked continental lithosphere with over 3 billion years of tectonic history. However, due to a lack of high-resolution geophysical datasets, a detailed picture of the SCB lithosphere is absent, and fundamental questions regarding its formation, assembly

Fractal Distribution of Subduction-Related Crack-Seal Veins (Schistes Lustrés, W. Alps): Implications for Fluid Flow and Rupture Processes at the Downdip End of the Seismogenic Zone J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-16 Clément Herviou, Philippe Agard, Anne Verlaguet, Thomas Gyomlai, Guillaume Bonnet, Kevin Mendes, Alexis Plunder
In the Western Alps, oceanic lithosphere fragments recovered from subduction are exposed continuously across the Liguro-Piemont domain. In this nappe-stack, the Schistes Lustrés metasediments are volumetrically dominant and contain large amounts of high-pressure lawsonite- and Fe-Mg carpholite-bearing veins. These veins formed close to peak burial conditions at 30–60 km depth where deep slow slips

Linking Significant Zr Isotopic Fractionation in Magmatic Zircons With Petrographic Textures J. Geophys. Res. Solid Earth (IF 3.9) Pub Date : 2023-10-17 Yu Yuan, Keqing Zong, Jing-Liang Guo, Wen Zhang, Zaicong Wang, Frédéric Moynier, Lanping Feng, Zhaochu Hu, Yongsheng Liu
The origin of crystal-scale Zr isotopic variation remains enigmatic. Here, we report high-precision Zr isotopic compositions of thin-sectioned and hand-picked zircon crystals from monzodiorites and K-feldspar granites, which represent the mafic and felsic products of a differentiating magma. Our results reveal that zircons from both rock associations are dominated by a rim-ward increase in the 94Zr/90Zr
