GPS Constraints on the Mw = 7.5 Ometepec Earthquake Sequence, Southern Mexico: Coseismic and Post-Seismic Deformation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We use continuous GPS measurements from 31 stations in southernMexico to model coseismic slip and post-seismic deformation from the 2012 March 20 Mw = 7.5 Ometepec earthquake, the first large thrust earthquake to occur below central Mexico during the ...

Early Post-Seismic Deformation Revealed After the Wushi (China) Earthquake (Mw = 7.1) Occurred on 22 January 2024

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The Mw = 7.1 Wushi earthquake is the second-largest digitally recorded earthquake in the Tianshan seismic zone and provides an opportunity to explore the structural characteristics of the Tianshan seismic zone.

Slip Along the Superstition Hills Fault Associated with the 24 November 1987 Superstition Hills, California, Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Surficial slip along the entire mapped length of the Superstition Hills fault in southern California occurred in association with the Superstition Hills earthquake (M_s 6.6)of 24 November 1987.

Coseismic surface deformation from air photos: The Kickapoo step over in the 1992 Landers rupture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Coseismic deformation of the ground can be measured from aerial views taken before and after an earthquake. We chose the area of the Kickapoo-Landers step over along the 1992 Landers earthquake zone, using air photos (scale 1:40,000) scanned at 0.4 m ...

Heterogeneous rheology controlled postseismic deformation of the 2011 Tohoku‐Oki earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Using two‐dimensional finite element modeling, we reproduced the observed postseismic deformation of the 2011 Tohoku‐Oki earthquake. Our model, which accounts for the lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary and weak zones beneath volcanoes, was able to ...

Implications of rate and state dependent friclion for creep on shallow faults

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1994
The aseismic sliding on shallow strike-slip faults, under the assumption of a non linear constitutive equation (velocity strengthening), is here treated as a two-dimensional quasi-static crack problem whose equations are solved numerically (boundary ...

Temporarily Increased Recurrence Rate of Shallow Slow Slip Events Driven by Significant Afterslip Following the 2012 Mw 7.6 Nicoya Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Slow slip events (SSEs) release tectonic strain without causing sudden ground shaking. SSEs have been observed at many subduction zones, some dynamically triggered by stress changes due to the passage of seismic waves.

Postseismic viscoelastic deformation and stress. Part 2: Stress theory and computation; dependence of displacement, strain, and stress on fault parameters [PDF]

open access: yes
A viscoelastic model for deformation and stress associated with earthquakes is reported. The model consists of a rectangular dislocation (strike slip fault) in a viscoelastic layer (lithosphere) lying over a viscoelastic half space (asthenosphere).

Postseismic deformation model of the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake, central Japan

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space
We investigated the characteristics and mechanism of postseismic deformation following the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake (M7.6), which occurred on January 1, 2024, in the Noto Peninsula, Japan.
