Triggered creep as a possible mechanism for delayed dynamic triggering of tremor and earthquakes (2011, background): “Whereas the mechanism of instantaneous dynamic triggering can be understood in terms of known failure mechanism”
Connecting near-field and far-field earthquake triggering to dynamic strain (2010, methodology): “Both Love and Rayleigh waves can trigger earthquakes [Hill, 2008; Velasco et al., 2008], but the 20 s Rayleigh wave, with a velocity of ∼3.5 km/s, is usually associated with the surface wave magnitude equation we use to estimate peak ground motions [Lay and Wallace, 1995].”
Widespread seismicity excitation throughout central Japan following the 2011 M=9.0 Tohoku earthquake and its interpretation by Coulomb stress transfer (2011, background): “[6] Remote earthquake triggering was observed at even greater distances but much lower densities following the 1992 M=7.3 Landers and 2002 M=7.9 Denali, earthquakes [Hill, 2008].”
