YES-27-D-19: How do Slow Earthquakes work? Using field, microstructural and -chemical evidence in combination with targeted experiments to gain a deep understanding of Slow Earthquakes
University of Leeds
School of Earth & Environment
In this exciting project, you will focus on the processes associated with Slow Earthquakes and Slow Slip events. Until now, the processes that enable deformation at rates slower than “normal” earthquakes, but faster than the commonly observed creep, remain elusive. Read more
