Fault Orientation Trumps Fault Maturity in Controlling Coseismic Rupture Characteristics of the 2021 Maduo Earthquake [PDF]
Fault 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.

Coseismic and early postseismic deformation due to the 2021 M7.4 Maduo (China) earthquake
AbstractThe 2021 Maduo earthquake ruptured a 150 km‐long left‐lateral fault in the northeast Tibet. We used Synthetic Aperture Radar data collected by the Sentinel‐1A/B satellites within days of the earthquake to derive a finite fault model and investigate the details of slip distribution with depth.

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

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 ...

On May 21, 2021, the M7.3 Maduo earthquake occurred within the Bayan Har Block, one of the most seismically active regions in the Tibetan Plateau. This aroused attention to the seismic hazards in this block. Understanding the stress transfer to adjacent faults is important for assessing seismic hazards.

Mechanism and implications of the post-seismic deformation following the 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo (Tibet) earthquake [PDF]
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 ...
