E. M. Sherrill studies how tectonic plates interact along subduction zones, where one plate slides beneath another and can produce large earthquakes. Their work focuses on mapping which parts of these fault boundaries are 'locked' (storing stress) versus 'creeping' (slipping slowly), and on modeling how earthquakes and slow deformation relate over the earthquake cycle. This informs assessments of earthquake and seismic hazard in regions such as Japan (Nankai) and the U.S. Pacific Northwest (Cascadia).
