Stress-driven fluid flow controls long-term megathrust strength and deep accretionary dynamics

The heterogeneity of frictional strength along the megathrust earthquake zone critically controls plate coupling and long-term subduction dynamics. However, the persistence and distribution of high-friction segments through space and time remain poorly constrained. Here, we show that accretion proce...
