DEEP SEISMICITY AND MODES OF DEFORMATION IN TONGA SUBDUCTION ZONE
The geometry of deep ( greater than 400 km) earthquakes in the subducting western edge of the Pacific plate, when related to the local distribution of seismic activity, reveals a complex pattern of planes of shear failure, enabling the modes of deformation by which the descending plate shortens and...
