“…The goal was to determine what makes a plate "plate-like" (Fischer et al, 2010(Fischer et al, , 2020Rychert et al, 2020). The data from the experiment also provided an opportunity to study a range of other phenomena, including, for instance, constraining local sediment properties (Agius et al, 2018;Saikia et al, 2020), imaging the mantle transition zone (Agius et al, 2021), determining 1D oceanic attenuation structure (Saikia et al, 2021a), tracking infragravity waves in the ocean (Bogiatzis et al, 2020), developing better corrections to improve normal mode measurements for seafloor data (Harmon et al, 2022), tidal triggering at the MAR (Leptokaropoulos et al, 2021), and TF seismicity on the nearby Romanche (Hicks et al, 2020) and the Chain TFs. Our study focuses on the Chain TF, which is characterized by a narrow 0-20 Myr old rupture zone, stretching over 300 km in roughly the east-west direction between two ridge spreading axes, slipping at a full spreading rate of ∼30 mm/yr.…”
