Evidence of Earthquake Triggering by the Solid Earth Tides (2008, background): “investigated a limited set of seismic events (typically 10 to 10000), yet recent laboratory studies (Lockner and Beeler, 1999; Beeler and Lockner, 2003) showed that a larger number of events (which depends”
From Geodetic Imaging of Seismic and Aseismic Fault Slip to Dynamic Modeling of the Seismic Cycle (2015, result): “This prediction is consistent with the observation that the onset of seismic slip on natural faults must be a time-dependent process to explain the negligible correlation between earthquakes and solid Earth tides (e.g., Beeler & Lockner 2003).”
Connecting near-field and far-field earthquake triggering to dynamic strain (2010, background): “In addition, the forcing at the relatively long periods of the tides may be intrinsically different from the dynamic strains imposed at the short periods of seismic waves [Beeler and Lockner, 2003; Gomberg et al., 1997; Savage and Marone, 2008].”
Introduction to special section: Stress transfer, earthquake triggering, and time‐dependent seismic hazard (2005, unknown): “Theoretical models have examined the dependence on frequency, among other things [Voisin, 2001, 2002; Beeler and Lockner, 2003; Perfettini et al., 2003], but to date, no consensus has emerged.”
