Deep Coseismic Slip in the Cascadia Megathrust Can Be Consistent With Coastal Subsidence
AbstractAt subduction zones, the down‐dip limit of slip represents how deep an earthquake can rupture. For hazards it is important ‐ it controls the intensity of shaking and the pattern of coseismic uplift and subsidence. In the Cascadia Subduction Zone, because no large magnitude events have been observed in instrumental times, the limit is inferred ...

Coseismic and postseismic fault slip characteristics of the 2020 MW6.3 Nima earthquake
The 2020 MW6.3 Nima earthquake occurred in the northern Yibug Caka graben on the Qiangtang Block of the Tibetan Plateau. The epicentral area has complex geological structures, topography, and geomorphology, and there are few near-field ground observation

Coseismic Ground Deformation Reproduced through Numerical Modeling: A Parameter Sensitivity Analysis
Coseismic ground displacements detected through remote sensing surveys are often used to invert the coseismic slip distribution on geologically reliable fault planes.

Quantifying slip balance in the earthquake cycle: Coseismic slip model constrained by interseismic coupling [PDF]
AbstractThe long‐term slip on faults has to follow, on average, the plate motion, while slip deficit is accumulated over shorter timescales (e.g., between the large earthquakes). Accumulated slip deficits eventually have to be released by earthquakes and aseismic processes.
