Is there any evidence of Slow Slip Events in the southern Peru-northern Chile subduction zone?

Yes, Jara et al. find tiny events hidden in the geodetic noise. Read more to see how they detected and characterized them:

NZ’s silent quakes: Scientists capture mysterious ‘slow-slip’ event off Hawke’s Bay coast
Scientists have edged closer to understanding mysterious “silent” earthquakes, after capturing a recent event that raised part of Hawke’s Bay’s seafloor by several centimetres.
