Modeling afterslip and aftershocks following the 1992 Landers earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2007
One way to probe the rheology of the lithosphere and fault zones is to analyze the temporal evolution of deformation following a large earthquake. In such a case, the lithosphere responds to a known stress change that can be assessed from earthquake slip

Kinematic Afterslip Patterns

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Non‐inertial afterslip has been inferred to occur following large earthquakes. An explanation for this slow slip phenomenon is that coseismically generated stresses induce sliding on parts of a fault surface with velocity‐strengthening frictional ...

Imaging topographic growth by long-lived postseismic afterslip at Sefidabeh, east Iran [PDF]

open access: yesTectonics, 2014
This paper describes observations and models of the postseismic deformation following the 1994 Sefidabeh earthquake sequence in east Iran, which shed light on the nature of the earthquake cycle and the mechanisms of topographic growth in the region ...

Afterslip From the 2020 M 6.5 Monte Cristo Range, Nevada Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2022
We investigate postseismic deformation following the 15 May 2020, Mw 6.5 Monte Cristo Range, Nevada earthquake using geodetic and aftershock data. Seven months of Sentinel 1‐A/B SAR images were used to model deformation as afterslip on two subparallel ...

Frictional Heterogeneity Governs Slip Partitioning and Seismic Hazard in the 2023 Turkey Earthquake Doublet

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Quantifying fault frictional properties is fundamental to understanding slip behavior and seismic hazard. We analyze 2 years of Sentinel‐1 SAR data following the 2023 Turkey earthquake doublet using Independent Component Analysis‐enhanced Small Baseline ...

Aftershocks following the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake driven by both stress transfer and afterslip

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2023
Aftershocks are a fundamental characteristic of seismicity, and their generation mechanism is mainly characterized by two physical models, stress transfer from large earthquakes and afterslip-induced stress loading.

Frictional Afterslip Following the 2005 Nias-Simeulue Earthquake, Sumatra [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2006
Continuously recording Global Positioning System stations near the 28 March 2005 rupture of the Sunda megathrust [moment magnitude ( M w ) 8.7] show that the earthquake triggered aseismic frictional afterslip on the subduction megathrust, with a major fraction of this slip in the up-dip direction from ...

Fault Heterogeneity and the Connection between Aftershocks and Afterslip [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2019
Whether aftershocks originate directly from the mainshock and surrounding stress environment or from afterslip dynamics is crucial to the understanding of the nature of aftershocks. We build on a classical description of the fault and creeping regions as two blocks connected elastically, subject to different friction laws.
