Evidence of Seismic Slip on a Large Splay Fault in the Hikurangi Subduction Zone

Evidence of Seismic Slip on a Large Splay Fault in the Hikurangi Subduction Zone

Abstract The Hikurangi subduction zone is capable of producing moderate to large earthquakes as well as regularly repeating slow slip events. However, it is unclear what structures host these different slip styles along the margin. Here we address whether splay faults can host seismic slip at shallo...
