Long-term temperature records following the M[subscript w] 7.9 Wenchuan (China) earthquake are consistent with low friction

Creator:: Li, Haibing, Xue, Lian, Brodsky, Emily E., Mori, James J., Fulton, Patrick M., Wang, Huang, Kano, Yasuyuki, Yun, Kun, Harris, Robert N., Gong, Zheng, Li, Chenglong, Si, Jialiang, Sun, Zhiming, Pei, Junling, Zheng, Yong, and Xu, Zhiqin
Abstract:: Knowledge of the shear stress on a fault during slip is necessary for a physically-based understanding of earthquakes. Borehole temperature measurements inside the fault zone immediately after an earthquake can record the energy dissipated by this stress. In the first Wenchuan Earthquake Fault Zone Scientific Drilling Project hole (Sichuan province,...

Low Coseismic Friction on the Tohoku-Oki Fault Determined from Temperature Measurements

Creator:: Fulton, P. M., Brodsky, E. E., Kano, Y., Mori, J., Chester, F., Ishikawa, T., Harris, R. N., Lin, W., Eguchi, N., Toczko, S., Expedition 343 Scientists, Expedition 343T Scientists, and Expedition KR13-08 Scientists
Abstract:: The frictional resistance on a fault during slip controls earthquake dynamics. Friction dissipates heat during an earthquake; therefore the fault temperature after an earthquake provides insight into the level of friction. The JFAST project (IODP Expedition 343/343T) installed a borehole temperature observatory 16 months after the March 2011 M[subscript w]9.0...

Living with earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Yeats, Robert S.
Abstract:: In this expanded new edition of Living with Earthquakes, Robert Yeats, a leading authority on earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest, describes the threat posed by the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a great earthquake fault which runs for hundreds of miles offshore from British Columbia to northern California. New research...

Does hydrologic circulation mask frictional heat on faults after large earthquakes?

Creator:: Fulton, Patrick M., Harris, Robert N., Saffer, Demian M., and Brodsky, Emily E.
Abstract:: Knowledge of frictional resistance along faults is important for understanding the mechanics of earthquakes and faulting. The clearest in situ measure of fault friction potentially comes from temperature measurements in boreholes crossing fault zones within a few years of rupture. However, large temperature signals from frictional heating on faults have...

On the evolution of seismogenic faults in the Longmen Shan, eastern Tibet

Creator:: Zhang, Huiping, Yi, Guixi, Zhang, Peizhen, and Kirby, Eric
Abstract:: A fundamental debate exists regarding the geometry and depth extent of seismogenic faults in eastern Tibet. Along the Longmen Shan, geologic and seismic reflection data reveal a belt of low to moderate angle thrust faults, some of which may have been activated in devastating earthquakes in 2008 (Mw ~7.9, Wenchuan)...

Testing spatial correlation of subduction interplate coupling and forearc morpho-tectonics

Creator:: Kaye, Grant David
Abstract:: The two largest earthquakes ever recorded, the 1964 M[subscript w] 9.2 Alaskan and 1960 M[subscript w] 9.5 Chilean, occurred on seismogenic plate interfaces at subduction zones. It has been theorized that the catastrophic failure of a locked zone along the contact between the downgoing slab and the upper plate causes...

Active tectonics of the Kashmir Himalaya (NW India) and earthquake potential on folds, out-of-sequence thrusts, and duplexes

Creator:: Gavillot, Yann G.
Abstract:: Active tectonics of a deformation front constrains the kinematic evolution and structural interaction between the fold-thrust belt and the most-recently accreted foreland basin. At the Himalayan deformation front, the thrust front is blind, characterized by a broad fold (the Suruin-Mastgarh anticline (SMA)), and displays no emergent faults cutting the southern...

Late Cenozoic Foreland-to-Hinterland Low-Temperature Exhumation History of the Kashmir Himalaya

Creator:: Gavillot, Yann, Meigs, Andrew J., Sousa, Francis J., Stockli, Daniel, Yule, Doug, and Malik, Manzoor
Abstract:: New apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He cooling ages quantify late Cenozoic exhumation patterns associated with fault activity across the Kashmir Himalaya. Apatite (U-Th)/He (AHe) cooling ages of detrital grains from the Sub-Himalayan foreland sediments indicate significant resetting. AHe data and thermal modeling reveal cooling and exhumation initiated by 4Ma at the...

Seismic Performance of Aging Prestressed Transmission Pole with Simulated Soil Foundation

Creator:: Argo, Maximo
Abstract:: The Cascadia Subduction Zone has recently been identified as a source for an impending great earthquake. The potential of a large earthquake has created widespread interest into the resiliency of lifelines within the potentially affected areas. One critical lifeline is the electrical distribution and transmission systems which relies on legacy...

Late Holocene Earthquake History Recorded in Alluvial Fan Sequences, Panamint Valley, Eastern California

Creator:: Sethanant, Israporn
Abstract:: The Panamint Valley fault zone (PVFZ) is an active, dextral-oblique normal fault that partially accommodates dextral shear across the Eastern California Shear Zone (ECSZ). The fault system has a complex geometry, characterized by a relatively high-angle dextral oblique normal fault in the south and a low-angle detachment system that accommodates...
