Interseismic coupling on the main Himalayan thrust [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2015
AbstractWe determine the slip rate and pattern of interseismic coupling on the Main Himalayan Thrust along the entire Himalayan arc based on a compilation of geodetic, interferometric synthetic aperture radar, and microseismicity data. We show that convergence is perpendicular to the arc and increases eastwards from 13.3 ± 1.7 mm/yr to 21.2 ± 2.0 mm/yr.

Interseismic Coupling and Slow Slip Events on the Cascadia Megathrust [PDF]

open access: yesPure and Applied Geophysics, 2018
In this study, we model geodetic strain accumulation along the Cascadia subduction zone between 2007.0 and 2017.632 using position time series from 352 continuous GPS stations. First, we use the secular linear motion to determine interseismic locking along the megathrust.

High interseismic coupling in the Eastern Makran (Pakistan) subduction zone

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 2015
Estimating the extent of interseismic coupling along subduction zone megathrusts is essential for quantitative assessments of seismic and tsunami hazards. Up to now, quantifying the seismogenic potential of the eastern Makran subduction zone at the northern edge of the Indian ocean has remained elusive due to a paucity of geodetic observations ...

A paleogeodetic record of variable interseismic rates and megathrust coupling at Simeulue Island, Sumatra [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2015
AbstractAn ∼1100 year long paleogeodetic record of land‐height change along the Simeulue section of the Sumatran subduction zone reveals significant variations in vertical motion rates. From an ∼267 year long record, we develop models to explain rate variations in the decades before the 1861, 2004, and 2005 great earthquakes.
