On shear stresses, temperatures, and the maximum magnitudes of earthquakes at convergent plate boundaries

Abstract:

Apparent coefficients of friction, urn:x-wiley:jgrb:media:jgrb52909:jgrb52909-math-0001, on nine subduction interfaces for which surface heat flux constraints exist fall in the range urn:x-wiley:jgrb:media:jgrb52909:jgrb52909-math-0002. Surface heat flux above the maximum depth of thrust‐faulting earthquakes adjusted for radiogenic heat production, QT, falls in a narrow range, implying that the transition from seismic to aseismic slip on the interface takes place at a temperature, TT, that ...
