A plate flexure approximation to postseismic and interseismic deformation
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1985The rather large postseismic deformation that is associated with two‐dimensional dip‐slip faulting in the lithosphere is related to the bending of a free plate generated by dip‐slip faulting. In the absence of gravity, asthenosphere relaxation eventually permits the faulted lithosphere to assume the dihedral configuration of a faulted free plate.

Optimal Combination of InSAR and GPS for Measuring Interseismic Crustal Deformation
Advances in Space Research, 2010High spatial resolution measurements of interseismic deformation along major faults are critical for understanding the earthquake cycle and for assessing earthquake hazard. We propose a new remove/filter/restore technique to optimally combine GPS and InSAR data to measure interseismic crustal deformation, considering the spacing of GPS stations in ...

Potential and Limits of InSAR to Characterize Interseismic Deformation Independently of GPS Data: Application to the Southern San Andreas Fault System [PDF]
The evaluation of long-wavelength deformation associated with interseismic strain accumulation traditionally relies on spatially sparse GPS measurements, or on high spatial-resolution InSAR velocity fields aligned to a GPS-based model.

Interseismic deformation at the Nankai Trough, Japan, subduction zone
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1992Uplift along the coast of southwestern Japan following the 1944 Tonankai (Ms = 8.0) and 1946 Nankaido (Ms = 8.2) earthquakes has been inferred from the 1950–1985 tide gage records. Although uplift rates vary with geographic position, the temporal dependence at each site can be described as the superposition of an exponentially decaying (time constant ...

Interseismic Deformation in the Gulf of Aqaba Inferred from GPS Measurements
2020<p>The Dead Sea Transform fault forms the boundary between the Arabian plate and the Sinai-Levant subplate. Several aspects of this fault system have been extensively studied during the last century. However, the present-day kinematics and deformation along its southern end in the Gulf of Aqaba remain poorly understood.

Interseismic deformation along the San Andreas Fault in southern California
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1995Eight trilateration networks located along the San Andreas fault in southern California have been surveyed 8 to 19 times within a 14‐ to 17‐year interval between 1971 and 1992. The data, measurements of distances between the same 10 to 32 pairs of geodetic monuments within a network in each of the surveys, have been corrected for coseismic offsets from

Principal component analysis of interseismic deformation in southern California
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1995Eight trilateration networks along the San Andreas fault in southern California have been surveyed repeatedly (8 to 19 times) within an approximately 15‐year interval between 1971 and 1992. The data for each network were analyzed by principal component analysis to represent the observed changes in line length as a superposition of individual modes: Lij

A two-dimensional dislocation model for interseismic deformation of the Taiwan mountain belt
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2003We use a Global Positioning System (GPS)-derived surface velocity field of Taiwan for the time period between 1993 and 1999 to infer interseismic slip rates on subsurface faults. We adopt a composite elastic half-space dislocation model constrained by the observed horizontal velocities projected into the direction of plate motion (306‡).

Abstract We make use of two-step modeling to simulate inter- and coseismic deformation within one seismic cycle by means of visco-elastic finite element method (FEM). The first step is to perform inversion to find the optimum modeling parameters by fitting the observed interseismic deformation.
