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

Imaging coseismic rupture in far field by slip patches [PDF]
SUMMARY Since the end of the 1970s, teleseismic waves are used routinely to infer the first-order characteristics of the event (location, depth, duration, focal mechanism), but finding the second-order kinematic parameters (spatial distribution of slip, rupture velocity and more basically the discrimination between the fault plane and the other nodal ...

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 ...

Slip distributions on active normal faults measured from LiDAR and field mapping of geomorphic offsets: an example from L'Aquila, Italy, and implications for modelling seismic moment release [PDF]
Surface slip distributions for an active normal fault in central Italy have been measured using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), in order to assess the impact of changes in fault orientation and kinematics when modelling subsurface slip distributions ...
