Depth‐Dependent Slow Earthquakes Controlled by Temperature Dependence of Brittle‐Ductile Transitional Rheology

Depth‐Dependent Slow Earthquakes Controlled by Temperature Dependence of Brittle‐Ductile Transitional Rheology

Abstract The discovery of slow earthquakes illuminates the existence of a strange depth dependence of seismogenesis, which contradicts the common understanding of smooth brittle/seismic‐ductile/aseismic transition as going deeper into the earth's surface layers. However, within the transitional...
