Shallow geological structures triggered during the Mw 6.4 Meinong earthquake, southwestern Taiwan

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
The Meinong earthquake generated up to ~10 cm surface displacement located 10 - 35 km west of the epicenter and monitored by InSAR and GPS. In addition to coseismic deformation related to the deep earthquake source, InSAR revealed three sharp surface ...

Interseismic Deformation and Earthquake Hazard along the Southernmost Longitudinal Valley Fault, Eastern Taiwan [PDF]

Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2012
About half of the 8  cm/yr of oblique convergence across the active convergent plate boundaries of Taiwan occurs in eastern Taiwan, across the Longitudinal Valley. Significant shortening and left‐lateral slip occurs across the Longitudinal Valley fault there, both as shallow fault creep and as seismogenic fault slip.

Competing Effects of Elastic Heterogeneity and Viscous Flow on Interseismic Coupling at Cascadia

Geophysical Research Letters
Interseismic coupling maps are important tools for estimating future earthquake hazard at subduction zones. Often interseismic coupling is estimated from surface velocities using a homogeneous elastic Earth model.

Present-day crustal deformation in central Sumatra, Indonesia derived from GNSS observation and tectonic implications

Geodesy and Geodynamics
Central Sumatra, Indonesia, is historically known for its significant seismic activities, most notably the devastating 1883 earthquake. In this study, we measured the interseismic deformation using continuous GNSS observation data for three years from ...

Constraints on the Geometry and Frictional Properties of the Main Himalayan Thrust Using Coseismic, Postseismic, and Interseismic Deformation in Nepal [PDF]

, 2020
The geometry and frictional properties of a fault system are key parameters required to understand its seismic behavior. The Main Himalayan Thrust in Nepal is the type example of a continental megathrust and forms part of a fault system which ...

Interseismic, Coseismic, and Early Postseismic Slip Associated With the 2025 Mw 8.8 Kamchatka Earthquake

Geophysical Research Letters
Unraveling the surface deformation and fault kinematics during the seismic cycle is crucial for understanding earthquake physics. Herein, we use geodetic and seismic observations to quantify the interseismic coupling, coseismic rupture, and postseismic ...

Residual polar motion caused by coseismic and interseismic deformations from 1900 to present [PDF]

Geophysical Journal International, 2016
We challenge the perspective that seismicity could contribute to polar motion by arguing quantitatively that, in first approximation and on the average, interseismic deformations can compensate for it. This point is important because what we must simulate and observe in Earth Orientation Parameter time-series over intermediate timescales of decades or ...

Pseudotachylyte Formation in Brittle–Ductile Transition of the Anning River Fault Zone: Implications for Seismic Processes

Applied Sciences
Pseudotachylytes and cataclasites record transient seismic slips within the brittle–ductile transition zone and ductile flow layers. Investigating the mechanisms of pseudotachylytes can provide the most direct geological evidence for revealing seismic ...
