Coseismic slip distribution of the 1923 Kanto earthquake, Japan [PDF]
The slip distribution associated with the 1923 M = 7.9 Kanto, Japan, earthquake is reexamined in light of new data and modeling. We utilize a combination of first‐order triangulation, second‐order triangulation, and leveling data in order to constrain the coseismic deformation.

InSAR observations reveal interactions between seismic and aseismic slip during and after the 2016 Mw 6.6 Muji earthquake [PDF]
Studying the relationship between coseismic slip and aseismic creep helps better understand the seismic and aseismic behavior of crustal faults. We use multi-platform synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and global positioning system data to invert for the ...

Extensive off-fault damage around the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake surface ruptures [PDF]
Quantifying coseismic fault offsets for surface ruptures of major earthquakes is important for earthquake cycle and slip-rate studies, and thus for earthquake hazard assessments.

Seismic versus aseismic slip for the 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake doublet [PDF]
Interplay between seismic and aseismic slip could shed light on the frictional properties and seismic potential of faults. The well-recorded 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake doublet provides an excellent opportunity to understand their partitioning on ...

Coseismic deformation and fault slip distribution of the 2023 MW7.8 and MW7.6 earthquakes in Türkiye
On February 6, 2023, a devastating earthquake with a moment magnitude of MW7.8 struck the town of Pazarcik in south-central Türkiye, followed by another powerful earthquake with a moment magnitude of MW7.6 that struck the nearby city of Elbistan 9 h later.

Coseismic fault-slip distribution of the 2019 Ridgecrest Mw6.4 and Mw7.1 earthquakes [PDF]
AbstractThe 2019 Ridgecrest, California seismic sequence, including an Mw6.4 foreshock and Mw7.1 mainshock, represent the largest regional seismic events within the past 20 years. To obtain accurate coseismic fault-slip distribution, we used precise positioning data of small earthquakes from January 2019 to October 2020 to determine the dip parameters ...

Pre‐Existing Off‐Fault Damage Can Impede Coseismic On‐Fault Slip
Primarily due to the scarce direct field evidence along a same fault, understanding the relationship between the pre‐existing off‐fault damage and coseismic slip distribution remains challenging.

Thermochemical pressurization of faults during coseismic slip [PDF]
During earthquakes, frictional heating on the fault plane induces a temperature rise and thus a pore pressure rise, which is known as thermal pressurization (TP). Coseismic mineral dehydrations may occur because of this temperature increase and are included within the TP framework.

Sensitivity Analysis for Seafloor Geodetic Constraints on Coseismic Slip and Interseismic Slip-Deficit Distributions [PDF]
Estimating the coseismic slip distribution and interseismic slip-deficit distribution play an important role in understanding the mechanism of massive earthquakes and predicting the resulting damage. It is useful to observe the crustal deformation not only in the land area, but also directly above the seismogenic zone.
