Since huge earthquakes are expected along plate subduction zones such as the Japan Trench and Nankai Trough, the estimation of coseismic slip and interseismic slip deficit is essential for immediate response and preliminary measures to reduce damage ...

Measuring and modelling deformation during the Dabbahu (Afar) rifting episode [PDF]
In September 2005, a 60-km-long dyke intruded the Dabbahu segment of the Nubia-Arabia plate boundary (Afar, Ethiopia), marking the beginning of an ongoing rifting episode.

Super-Interseismic Periods: Redefining Earthquake Recurrence [PDF]
Precise geodetic measurements made over broad swaths of tectonically active regions record patterns of interseismic strain accumulation, providing key insights into the locus and timing of pending earthquakes.

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.

An asperity model for fault creep and interseismic deformation in northeastern Japan [PDF]
We explore the potential geodetic signature of mechanical stress shadows surrounding inferred major seismic asperities along the Japan-Kurile subduction megathrust. Such stress shadows result from a decrease in creep rates late in the interseismic period.

Constraints on interseismic deformation at Japan Trench from VLBI data
We use space geodetic data from very long baseline interferometry to estimate the velocity relative to the plates of two sites near Tokyo. We use these results and elastic models of interseismic deformation to put constraints on the slip rate along the main thrust at the Japan subduction zone.

Parameter estimation for interseismic surface deformation using data assimilation
<p>Geodetic data provide an opportunity to improve our understanding of the processes and parameters controlling the dynamics of deformation during the earthquake cycle at subduction zones. However, the observations contain noise and are temporally and spatially sparse, whereas dynamical models are unequivocally imperfect.

Localizing interseismic deformation around locked strike-slip faults [PDF]
Localized geodetic deformation of an approximately arctangent shape around locked strike-slip faults is widely reported, but there are also important exceptions showing distributed interseismic deformation.
