Creator:: Nolan, Sarah
Abstract:: Studies reveal differences in slip segmentation and plate coupling along the Cascadia subduction zone. The segment between 44.0°N and 45.0°N exhibited reduced slip in the 1700 megathrust earthquake (Wang et al., 2013) and corresponds with previous rupture boundaries inferred from paleoseismic data (Leonard et al., 2010). Notably, this segment of...
