Deformation on Rainbow Massif, Mid‐Atlantic Ridge, Illuminated With Microearthquakes Detected by Machine Learning

Abstract Oceanic detachment fault systems are characteristic of slow‐spreading mid‐ocean ridges, where reduced magma supply leads to increased extension by faulting and exhumation of oceanic core complexes (OCCs). OCCs have complicated structure reflecting the interplay between magmatic, hydrotherma...
