Why do fast earthquakes accelerate dramatically while slow ones are not able to? In this study, we explore the physical origins of various types of events in a particle-based simulation of fault slip. Our model simulates a vertical crustal strike-slip fault in two dimensions, viewed from the top. We use an assemblage of about 14,000 particles, bonded to impart cohesion at all contacts except along a pre-defined fault line of 50 km length.

"Exploring the drivers of past monsoon variability in SE Asia" Southeast Asia occupies a nexus between three major branches of the Asian monsoon system. Distribution of proxy sites in SE Asia are insufficient to resolve the spatial impacts of dynamical climate features (e.g. the ITCZ, Pacific Walker Circulation (PWC) and tropical storms) as they relate [...].
