Analog Models of Lithospheric‐Scale Rifting Monitored in an X‐Ray CT Scanner
(Tectonics, 2023-03-01)Rifting and continental break‐up are fundamental tectonic processes, the understanding of which is of prime importance. However, the vast temporal and spatial scales involved pose major limitations to researchers. Analog ... -
Central uplift collapse in acoustically fluidized granular targets: Insights from analog modeling
(Meteoritics & Planetary Science, 2020)Depending on their sizes, impact craters have either simple or complex geometries. Peak-ring craters such as the Chicxulub impact structure possess a single interior ring of peaks and hills and a flat interior floor. The ... -
Predicting Imminence of Analog Megathrust Earthquakes With Machine Learning: Implications for Monitoring Subduction Zones
(Geophysical Research Letters, 2020-03-31)Subduction zones are monitored using space geodesy with increasing resolution, with the aim of better capturing the deformation accompanying the seismic cycle. Here, we investigate data characteristics that maximize the ... -
Strain Signals Governed by Frictional‐Elastoplastic Interaction of the Upper Plate and Shallow Subduction Megathrust Interface Over Seismic Cycles
(Tectonics, 2022-05-03)The behavior of the shallow portion of the subduction zone, which generates the largest earthquakes and devastating tsunamis, is still insufficiently constrained. Monitoring only a fraction of a single megathrust earthquake ... -
Upper Plate Response to a Sequential Elastic Rebound and Slab Acceleration During Laboratory‐Scale Subduction Megathrust Earthquakes
(Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2022-09-02)An earthquake‐induced stress drop on a megathrust instigates different responses on the upper plate and slab. We mimic homogenous and heterogeneous megathrust interfaces at the laboratory scale to monitor the strain ...
