The 2015 Mw 7.1 earthquake on the Charlie‐Gibbs transform fault: Repeating earthquakes and multimodal slip on a slow oceanic transform

Abstract The 2015 Mw 7.1 earthquake on the Charlie‐Gibbs transform fault along the Mid‐Atlantic Ridge is the latest in a series of seven large earthquakes since 1923. We propose that these earthquakes form a pair of quasi‐repeating sequences with the largest magnitudes and longest repeat times for s...
