Rapid early afterslip characteristics of the 2010 moment magnitude (Mw) 8.8 Maule earthquake determined with sub-daily GPS solutions

Satellite Navigation
Ground surface deformations can be observed during the coseismic and postseismic periods. The accurate determination of displacements is of paramount importance for the assessment of the destructive power of large earthquakes and the characterization of ...

Coseismic Rupture and Postseismic Afterslip of the 2020 Nima Mw 6.4 Earthquake

Remote Sensing
On 22 July 2020, an Mw 6.4 earthquake occurred in Nima County in the Qiangtang Terrane of the central Tibetan Plateau. This event, caused by normal faulting, remains controversial in terms of its rupture process and causative fault due to the complex ...

Tsunamigenic earthquake at the Sunda trench promoted by aseismic slip after a previous megathrust event

Communications Earth & Environment
The shallow portion of megathrusts can exhibit various modes of failure: interseismic creep, triggered afterslip, or rupture during a tsunami(genic) earthquake, resulting in a potential hidden danger to onshore communities.

Shear Strain Evolution Spanning the 2020 Mw6.8 Elazığ and 2023 Mw7.8/Mw7.6 Kahramanmaraş Earthquake Sequence Along the East Anatolian Fault Zone

Geophysical Research Letters
Shallow creep along strike‐slip faults is essential in releasing strain during earthquake cycles. However, its origin—whether inherent or triggered by earthquakes—remains debated. Using Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar phase‐gradient data, we map
