| Research Abstract |
Change in deformation styles and the related transition from smectite to illite within the aseismic-seismic transition zone (2-4 km below the seafloor) in a subduction zone were analyzed by studying an onland accretionary complex that was previously buried to a depth of just 2-4 km. Such strain hardening associated with the clay mineral transition and decrease in porosity is the primary mechanism of thickening of the decollement and/or melange zone, and represents a fundamental mechanical/chemical change in the properties of sediments immediately before entering the seismogenic zone.
