Buried shallow fault slip from the South Napa earthquake revealed by near-field geodesy. [PDF]
Earthquake-related fault slip in the upper hundreds of meters of Earths surface has remained largely unstudied because of challenges measuring deformation in the near field of a fault rupture.

Normal fault earthquakes or graviquakes [PDF]
Earthquakes are dissipation of energy throughout elastic waves. Canonically is the elastic energy accumulated during the interseismic period. However, in crustal extensional settings, gravity is the main energy source for hangingwall fault collapsing ...

On 7 January 2025, an Mw 7.0 earthquake struck Dingri County, Shigatse, Tibet. This was the largest event in the region in recent years. Analysis of the Dingri earthquake is urgent for understanding the coseismic slip and early postseismic deformation ...

An aseismic slip pulse in northern Chile and along-strike variations in seismogenic behavior [PDF]
We use interferometric synthetic aperture radar, GPS, and seismic observations spanning 5 to 18 years to reveal a detailed kinematic picture of the spatiotemporal evolution of fault slip in a region corresponding to the 30 July 1995 M_w 8.1 subduction ...

Geodetic model of the 2016 Central Italy earthquake sequence inferred from InSAR and GPS data [PDF]
We investigate a large geodetic data set of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR)and GPS measurements to determine the source parameters for the three main shocks of the 2016Central Italy earthquake sequence on 24 August and 26 and 30 October (

Surface deformation induced by the 2016 Meinong earthquake and its implications to active folds
We present 230 field observations on the location, trending, and displacement vectors of the coseismic surface cracks induced by the 2016 Meinong earthquake in the Guanmiao area, SW Taiwan. Coseismic surface cracks trends from the north to northeast. The

Core-mantle boundary deformations and J2 variations resulting from the 2004 Sumatra earthquake
The deformation at the core-mantle boundary produced by the 2004 Sumatra earthquake is investigated by means of a semi-analytic theoretical model of global coseismic and postseismic deformation, predicting a millimetric coseismic perturbation over a ...

Mode of Strain Release Associated with Major Earthquakes in Japan [PDF]
It is now widely accepted that most shallow earthquakes are caused by a sudden release of tectonic stress, and therefore strain, in the form of faulting (56, Chap. 14).

Recent advances of computing coseismic deformations in theory and applications [PDF]
This paper reviews the recent advances in computing coseismic deformations, and their contributions to seismology and geodesy. At first, an overview on the history of the dislocation theory development is given in the introduction section. Then, emphasis are given on some new developments through few examples in the following sections, such as the new ...
