Fig. 2: Signals analyzed and timings of slow slip events.

From: An exponential build-up in seismic energy suggests a months-long nucleation of slow slip in Cascadia

Fig. 2

a Down-sampled (solely for visualization purposes), clipped (at 5E−7 m/s) continuous seismic waves for one station analyzed (B001). Our goal is to rely exclusively on continuous seismic waves to identify signatures preceding an upcoming slow slip event. b Slow slip timing from PNSN tremor logs (gray shaded areas), and smoothed (over 10 days) cataloged tremor rates in Southern Vancouver Island from the PNSN tremor catalog for comparison.
