[1] In several instances, the passing surface waves from large earthquakes have ignited nonvolcanic tremor (NVT) on major faults. Still, the mechanism of tremor and its reaction to the dynamic stressing from various body and surface waves is poorly understood. We examine tremor near Parkfield, California, beneath the San Andreas fault triggered by the Mw 9.2, 2004 Sumatra earthquake. The prolon...
