Abstract
Great subduction earthquakes are the largest earthquakes on Earth, and they are associated with the subduction of lithosphere. They rupture the shallow dipping megathrust interfaces between the plates along areas with dimensions up to 1000 km by 200 km. Recent studies on great subduction earthquakes was the focus of the Wadati Conference on Great Subduction Earthquakes, held at the University of Alaska's Geophysical Institute in Fairbanks from September 16 to 19, 1992. About eighty scientists participated in the conference, which was sponsored jointly by the National Science Foundation and the U.S. Geological Survey.
