Objectives of NanTroSEIZE Document the material properties and state of the plate boundary fault
system at several P-T and lithology conditions, testing hypotheses for stable
vs. unstable frictional behavior.
Investigate partitioning between seismic vs. aseismic processes on the main
plate boundary, through monitoring of seismicity, borehole strain, pore fluid
pressure, and temperature.
Test whether there are interseismic temporal changes in state – including
possible earthquake precursory signals.
Calibrate observations in the broader geophysical volume (3D seismic)
surrounding the boreholes to the rock properties and state.
NanTroSEIZE is primarily about FAULT MECHANICS

NanTroSEIZE Future PlansNanTroSEIZE Future Plans2011 Install monitoring systems in cased boreholes:
Seismometer array, Strainmeter, tiltmeter, pore pressure, and temperature
2012 until 20?? Drill with riser system to megasplay fault/plate boundary at
C0002, or equivalent site.

Link to cabled observatory network for real-time monitoring
Japanese seafloor cabled network DONET will be completed in 2010
NanTroSEIZE IODP borehole observatories will be connected
