Fault Orientation Trumps Fault Maturity in Controlling Coseismic Rupture Characteristics of the 2021 Maduo Earthquake [PDF]
AbstractFault maturity has been proposed to exert a first order control on earthquake rupture, yet direct observations linking individual rupture to long‐term fault growth are rare. The 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo earthquake ruptured the east‐growing end of the slow‐moving (∼1 mm/yr) Jiangcuo fault in north Tibet, providing an opportunity to examine the relation

Transient Deformation Excited by the 2021 M7.4 Maduo (China) Earthquake: Evidence of a Deep Shear Zone [PDF]
AbstractWe use Sentinel‐1 and ALOS‐2 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR), and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data to investigate the mechanisms of coseismic and postseismic deformation due to the 2021 M7.4 Maduo (China) earthquake.

InSAR‐Derived Horizontal Velocities in a Global Reference Frame [PDF]
Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar is used to measure deformation rates over continents to constrain tectonic processes. The resulting velocity measurements are only relative, however, due to unknown integer ambiguities introduced during ...

Strain Threshold for the Formation of Coseismic Surface Rupture
The 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo earthquake (eastern Tibetan Plateau), with a surface deformation zone that is characterized by multiple distinct surface rupture segments separated by segments with no surface ruptures, provides an excellent opportunity to constrain

Accuracy evaluation on five non-linear methods for fault parameter inversion of different-type fault earthquakes [PDF]
Accurate inversion of seismic fault parameters has been a challenge in the studies of geophysical non-linear inversion problems. Many non-linear methods such as Simulated Annealing (SA), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and ...

Mechanism and implications of the post-seismic deformation following the 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo (Tibet) earthquake [PDF]
SUMMARY A major earthquake shook the Chinese county of Maduo, located in the Songpan-Ganzi terrane on the Tibetan Plateau, on 21 May 2021. Here, we investigate the post-seismic deformation process of this event, with the aim to understand the fault geometry, friction behaviour and regional rheology.

Constraining Shear Strength of Fault Damage Zone Using Geodetic Data and Numerical Simulation
Shear strength of damage zone, representing the stress threshold for rupture initiation, is a critical parameter in faulting mechanics. Despite its significance, the damage‐zone's shear strength has not been estimated in natural earthquake ruptures. Here
