Heterogeneity in Microseismicity and Stress Near Rupture‐Limiting Section Boundaries Along the Late‐Interseismic Alpine Fault
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: SOLID EARTH
08 october 2022
Emily Warren-Smith, John Townend, Calum J. Chamber...

Paleoseismic evidence from the late‐interseismic Alpine Fault suggests key section boundaries conditionally inhibit rupture. We utilize a yea...

Regional‐Scale Low‐Angle Normal Fault Friction and Cohesion Constrained From Mohr‐Coulomb Models of Active and Abandoned Range‐Front Faults in Papua New Guinea
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: SOLID EARTH
20 april 2022
Samuel M. Webber, Timothy A. Little, Carolyn J. Bo...

Low‐angle normal faults (LANFs) are poorly understood, as their slip at <30° dips appears inconsistent with Byerlee friction and Ande...

Persistent compliance drives localization of deformation on a major plate boundary fault
MECHANICAL COMPLEXITY AND STRUCTURAL HETEROGENEITY IN DIFFUSE FAULT ZONES: OBSERVATION, MODELING, AND EXPERIMENTS II ORAL
seismology | 16 december 2021
Ludmila Adam, Shreya Kanakiya, Carolyn J. Boulton,...
The Alpine Fault is a major boundary between the Pacific and Australian plates in the South Island of New Zealand. The fault is late in its interseism...
