Recurring large deep earthquakes in Hindu Kush driven by a sinking slab
Abstract Hindu Kush subduction zone produces large intermediate‐depth earthquakes within a small volume every 10–15 years. Here we study the last three M ≥ 7 events within the cluster and find complex and diverse rupture processes. However, their main subevents appear to recur on the same fault patc...
