Zooming In between Plates: deciphering the nature of the plate interface in subduction zones (ZIP)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,
"Subduction zones play a fundamental role in our daily life. Half of the world population lives on top or nearby one of them, in coastal areas repeatedly devastated by large earthquakes, tsunamis or volcanic eruptions. Giant earthquakes occurring on subduction zone mega-thrusts (Mw close to 9 or larger) are indeed amongst the deadliest natural hazards. During the last decade, very large earthquake ...
