Interseismic strain accumulation: Spin-up, cycle invariance, and irregular rupture sequences

, 2006
[1] Using models of infinite length strike-slip faults in an elastic layer above linear viscoelastic regions, we investigate interseismic deformation. In the models we investigate, interseismic strain accumulation on mature faults is the result of the ...

Depth-dependent deformation structure reconciles geodetic and geologic observations in central Japan

Earth, Planets and Space
Reconciliation of geodetic observations of short-term deformation and geologic records of long-term deformation is required to better understand the processes of crustal deformation associated with the generation of tectonic landforms and earthquakes ...

A Joint Inversion Algorithm of GNSS and InSAR for Continuous 3‐D Surface Velocities and Associated Horizontal Strain Rate Field

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Simultaneous analyses of complementary GNSS and InSAR measurements may lead to breakthroughs in our understanding of crustal deformation. We present an algorithm that combines InSAR with GNSS measurements, in which the GNSS data can be used either as ...

Detection of slow slip events along the southern Peru - northern Chile subduction zone

Seismica
Detections of slow slip events (SSEs) are now common along most plate boundary fault systems at the global scale. However, no such event has been described in the south Peru - north Chile subduction zone so far, except for the early preparatory phase of

Slip rate and interseismic coupling along the Moxi-Shimian segment of the Xianshuihe fault, Eastern Qinghai-Xizang Plateau

Geodesy and Geodynamics
On September 5, 2022, the Luding M6.8 earthquake occurred in the Moxi-Shimian segment of the Xianshuihe fault, coinciding with the historical ruptured zone of the 1786 Moxi earthquake.

Interseismic deformation in the Nepal Himalaya from GPS data

, 2007
The velocity of interseismic convergence through the Nepal Himalaya - essential parameter in the study of the seismic cycle - is discussed since several years. To constrain this velocity, we have successfully combined geodetic data from campaign GPS surveys, cGPS stations and DORIS stations to determine the plate motion of India and contemporary ...

Long-baseline fluid tiltmeter for seismotectonic studies of Mexican subduction zone [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2002
A long-baseline water tiltmeter (LBT) was constructed on the Pacific coast of Mexico to provide high precision tilt observations in a section of the subduction zone apparently undergoing interseismic-preseismic deformation phase.

The effects of earthquakes with different rupture patterns in the main Himalayan thrust on deformation and stress changes in the Himalayan orogenic belt and Southern Tibetan Plateau

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
The relationships between co-seismic slip and surface deformation under different rupture patterns along the Main Himalayan Thrust remain poorly understood.

Coulomb stress evolution due to coseismic, postseismic and interseismic deformation in southern California, NE Caribbean and southern Alaska

, 2009
Evolution of Coulomb stress is numerically simulated in three tectonically active regions i.e., Southern California, NE Caribbean and Southern Alaska, in order to better understand the relationship between stress change and earthquake occurrence and to ...

Interseismic deformation fingerprints on the hyperarid coastal landscape in North Chilean subduction

Along-strike seismotectonic behavior of subduction megathrusts feeds back into the forearc deformation as elastic and permanent deformation. However, whether and how short-term elastic deformation reflects long-term permanent deformation in the forearc and shapes the coastal region remains unclear.
