GNSS-Acoustic Observations of Seafloor Crustal Deformation Using a Wave Glider

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Crustal deformation of the seafloor is difficult to observe solely using global navigation satellite system (GNSS). The GNSS-acoustic (GNSS-A) technique was developed to observe seafloor crustal deformation, and it has produced a steady series of ...

Study on deformation characteristics and dynamic cause of the Luding MS6.8 earthquake

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
A MS6.8 earthquake struck Luding Country in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province on 5 September 2022. The earthquake occurred on the Moxi segment of Xianshuihe fault zone (XFZ), one of the most seismically active faults in the Chinese mainland.

What can seismic noise tell us about the Alpine reactivation of the Iberian Massif? An example in the Iberian Central System [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2020
The Iberian Central System, formed after the Alpine reactivation of the Variscan Iberian Massif, features maximum altitudes of 2500 m. It is surrounded by two foreland basins with contrasting elevation: the Duero Basin to the north, located at 750–800 m,

3D GNSS Velocity Field Sheds Light on the Deformation Mechanisms in Europe: Effects of the Vertical Crustal Motion on the Distribution of Seismicity

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2022
Crustal deformation and seismicity in Europe are still poorly understood. Seismic activity is classically ascribed to crustal strain rates generated by edge‐driven tectonic forces. However, crustal deformation is not only due to tectonic loading, but can

Isolating non-subduction-driven tectonic processes in Cascadia

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2021
Several tectonic processes combine to produce the crustal deformation observed across the Cascadia margin: (1) Cascadia subduction, (2) the northward propagation of the Mendocino Triple Junction (MTJ), (3) the translation of the Sierra Nevada–Great ...

Sensitivity Analysis for Seafloor Geodetic Constraints on Coseismic Slip and Interseismic Slip-Deficit Distributions

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
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.

Present‐Day Crustal Deformation of Continental China Derived From GPS and Its Tectonic Implications

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2020
We process rigorously GPS data observed during the past 25 years from continental China to derive site secular velocities. Analysis of the velocity solution leads to the following results.

Complex Crustal Deformation Beneath the Cathaysia Block in South China: Evidence From Receiver Function Analysis

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
By harmonically fitting the arrival times of the P‐to‐S converted phases from the Moho, we systematically investigate the crustal anisotropy beneath the Cathaysia Block (CaB) and the surrounding areas in South China for the first time.

Recent Crustal Deformation in West-Central South America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
I use interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) to create maps of crustal deformation along the coast and within the volcanic arc of central South America. I image deformation associated with six subduction zone earthquakes, four volcanic centers,

Deformation and exhumation in thick continental crusts induced by valley incision of elevated plateaux [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth
Surface processes such as erosion and sedimentation play a critical role in crustal deformation, particularly in actively deforming orogenic belts. While these processes have been extensively studied in large-scale erosive and tectonically active regions,
