Broad fault zones enable deep fluid transport and limit earthquake magnitudes

Geophysical data from Chain Transform Fault reveal that broad damage zones preferentially facilitate fluid transport that cools the mantle, increasing earthquake depths. Fluids weaken the fault and segment it, limiting earthquake magnitudes.

Back-propagating supershear rupture in the 2016 M_w 7.1 Romanche transform fault earthquake

In one earthquake, an oceanic transform fault ruptured in one direction and then backwards at a speed exceeding that of shear-wave propagation, according to an analysis of data recorded by nearby seafloor and global seismometers.
