| Part of this complexity can be related to the presence of irregularities on the subducting plates, such as aseismic ridges and arc terranes. |
| We want to understand the connections between aseismic deformation and earthquake occurrence. |
| Fine-grained mylonite developed in the fault corridor may have favoured aseismic deformation in the Shin volcano area. |
| The Rio Grande Rise is an aseismic ocean ridge in the southern Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Brazil. |
| Integration of these two data sets could provide a missing link in our understanding of the transition from aseismic to seismogenic plate motion. |
