The role of fluids in earthquake rupture is key to understanding seismic hazards, particularly at subduction zones. The Shumagin Gap, Alaska, is notable due to a paucity of large earthquake nucleation and weak coupling between the overriding and subducting plates. Fluids have been hypothesized to explain these observations, but the source of the fluids remains unclear.
