Aseismic slip transients emerge spontaneously in three-dimensional rate and state modeling of subduction earthquake sequences (2005, background): “as km/day or more in the Cascadia and Mexico subduction zones [Dragert et al., 2001; Rogers and Dragert, 2003; Kostoglodov et al., 2003].”
Earthquake nucleation on rate and state faults - Aging and slip laws (2008, background): “[43] Recently, periodic slow slip events have been identified near the base of the seismogenic portion of subduction zones in Cascadia and southwest Japan [Dragert et al., 2001; Obara and Hirose, 2006].”
Three-dimensional viscoelastic finite element model for postseismic deformation of the great 1960 Chile earthquake (2004, background): “[17] Downdip of the seismogenic zone, a subduction fault may slip aseismically and episodically during the interseismic period [Dragert et al., 2001; Ozawa et al., 2002].”

Dynamics of a velocity strengthening fault region: Implications for slow earthquakes and postseismic slip (2008, neutral): “, 2006], have now been observed in the Cascadia subduction zone [Dragert et al., 2001], in northern California [Miller et al.”
Postseismic relaxation driven by brittle creep: A possible mechanism to reconcile geodetic measurements and the decay rate of aftershocks, application to the Chi-Chi earthquake, Taiwan (2004, background): “In several cases the geodetic data show that afterslip occurred down dip of the locked fault portion, so probably in the BCFZ [Dragert et al., 2001; Hutton et al., 2001; Katsumata et al., 2002; Owen et al., 2002].”
Detection of arbitrarily large dynamic ground motions with a dense high‐rate GPS network (2004, background): “CGPS has detected aseismic slow earthquakes [e.g., Dragert et al., 2001; Melbourne et al., 2002] and precursory transient slip [Melbourne and Webb, 2002] not detected by traditional seismic methods.”
Spatial and temporal evolution of stress and slip rate during the 2000 Tokai slow earthquake (2006, background): “Cascadia slow events, first found by Dragert et al. [2001] , are different from the Tokai event in duration (3 months for Cascadia, more than 3 years for Tokai), cumulative slip amplitude (0.02 m for Cascadia, greater than 0.2 m for Tokai), maximum slip rate (1 m/yr for Cascadia, 0.13 m/yr for Toka”

Modeling afterslip and aftershocks following the 1992 Landers earthquake (2007, neutral): “PERFETTINI AND AVOUAC: AFTERSLIP MODEL OF LANDERS [28] It is also possible that the BCFZ could have accelerated in the preseismic phase due to the occurrence of a slow slip transient, a mechanism that may promote the nucleation of subduction earthquakes [e.g., Dragert et al., 2001].”
Afterslip and aftershocks in the rate‐and‐state friction law (2007, background): “They occur generally above [Bilham, 1989] or below [Dragert et al., 2001; Mitsui and Hirahara, 2006] the seismogenic zone.”
The physics of earthquakes (2001, background): “In this introductory review for non-specialists, we gloss over many exciting and important advances in recent years ranging from the discovery of periodic slow slip events (Dragert et al 2001) to the elucidation of fault structure revealed by new accurate location techniques (Rubin et al 1999).”
Aftershock Zone Scaling (2002, background): “For example, Dragert et al. (2001) (see also Thatcher, 2001) hypothesize that during the summer of 1999 an aseismic slip occurred in the Cascadia subduction zone as a discrete pulse equivalent to an earthquake with magnitude 6.7.”
