Block Motion Changes in Japan Triggered by the 2011 Great Tohoku Earthquake [PDF]
Plate motions are governed by equilibrium between basal and edge forces. Great earthquakes may induce differential static stress changes across tectonic plates, enabling a new equilibrium state.

Coseismic slip distribution of the 1946 Nankai earthquake and aseismic slips caused by the earthquake [PDF]
Coseismic slip distribution on the fault plane of the 1946 Nankai earthquake (Mw 8.3) was estimated from inversion of tsunami waveforms. The following three improvements from the previous study (Satake, 1993) were made. (1) Larger number of smaller subfaults is used; (2) the subfaults fit better to the slab geometry; and (3) more detailed bathymetry ...

New constraints on the uplift of October 9, 1995 Jalisco-Colima earthquake (Mw 8) based on the analysis of tsunami records at Manzanillo and Navidad, Mexico [PDF]
Tsunami records registered during the October 9, 1995 Jalisco-Colima earthquake (Mw 8) by two tide gauges and one pressure gauge are analyzed to estimate the coseismic subsidence at Manzanillo and Navidad Bay.

The transition process from coseismic to early postseismic phenomena within a half-day remains a significant topic for understanding the slip budget and friction properties of the fault.

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 ...

Diffuse deformation explains the magnitude-dependent coseismic shallow slip deficit
Abstract Continental earthquakes produce both localized slip on faults and diffuse deformation in the surrounding medium, up to 1-2 kilometers from the faults. However, the origin of the diffuse deformation and its role in the rupture process are still debated.

Earthquake rupture extents and coseismic slips promoted by damaged fault zones [PDF]
AbstractHere we investigate the effects of damage fault zones on rupture propagation by conducting a series of 3‐D dynamic rupture simulations on a planar vertical strike‐slip fault. We find that damage fault zones can promote rupture extent and increase earthquake potency.

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 ...

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.
