INTERSEISMIC DEFORMATION ACROSS THE EASTERN ALTYN TAGH FAULT FROM INSAR MEASUREMENTS [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2018
As a new type of earth observation technique, InSAR has a lot of advantages, such as all-weather, all-time, high precision, high density, wide coverage and low cost. It has been widely used in deformation monitoring.

Impact of interseismic deformation on phase transformations and rock properties in subduction zones. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
AbstractPhase transformations greatly affect physical properties of rocks and impose a first-order control on geodynamic processes. Under high deformation rates, rheological heterogeneities cause large spatial variations of stress in materials.

Interpreting the interseismic deformation of the Altotiberina Fault (central Italy) through 2D modelling

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2014
The Altotiberina low-angle normal fault in central Italy has been a focus of many recent studies. Although the existence of this fault has long been known, its seismicity and relationship to other faults are still debated.

3D architecture and complex behavior along the simple central San Andreas fault [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
The central San Andreas Fault (CSAF) exhibits a simple linear large-scale fault geometry, yet seismic and aseismic deformation features vary in a complex way along the fault. Here we investigate fault zone behaviors using geodetic observation, seismicity

Interseismic deformation in the Gulf of Aqaba from GPS measurements

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2021
SUMMARYAlthough the Dead Sea Transform (DST) fault system has been extensively studied in the past, little has been known about the present-day kinematics of its southernmost portion that is offshore in the Gulf of Aqaba. Here, we present a new GPS velocity field based on three surveys conducted between 2015 and 2019 at 30 campaign sites, complemented ...

Influences of across-strike heterogeneous viscosity on the earthquake cycle in a three-dimensional strike-slip fault model

open access: yesEarthquake Research Advances, 2023
Geodetic observations have shown that there exist large differences in the viscosity of the deep lithosphere across many large strike-slip faults. Heterogeneity in lithospheric viscosity structure can influence the efficiency of stress transfer and thus ...

Physics-Based Approach to Deep Interseismic Creep: Implications for North Tabriz Fault Behavior Using MCMC

open access: yesEngineering Proceedings, 2023
Many studies assume that the distribution of a fault slip rate remains constant with time when examining surface deformation. However, recent numerical simulations have shown that dynamic rupture can penetrate regions with increased friction and diffuse ...

A joint InSAR-GNSS workflow for correction and selection of interferograms to estimate high-resolution interseismic deformations

open access: yesSatellite Navigation, 2023
Knowledge of the spatial distribution of interseismic deformations is essential to better understand earthquake cycles. The existing methods for improving the reliability of the obtained deformations often rely on visual inspection and prior model ...

Multi-interferogram method for measuring interseismic deformation: Denali Fault, Alaska [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 2007
SummaryStudies of interseismic strain accumulation are crucial to our understanding of continental deformation, the earthquake cycle and seismic hazard. By mapping small amounts of ground deformation over large spatial areas, InSAR has the potential to produce continental-scale maps of strain accumulation on active faults.

Bias in estimates of lithosphere viscosity from interseismic deformation [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2013
The estimation of uniform viscosities representing the lower crust and uppermost mantle from postseismic or interseismic deformation (i.e., apparent viscosities) is inherently biased with respect to a depth dependence of the viscosities within each layer.
