Evolution of Scaled Energy During Earthquake Ruptures

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Earthquake ruptures radiate seismic energy in complex ways, reflecting the interplay of fault heterogeneity and rupture dynamics. How the radiated energy evolves during rupture, and whether this evolution varies systematically with earthquake properties, remains poorly understood. Here we analyze more than 1,500 global earthquakes using moment‐

Along-dipping variations in fault geometry influencing shallow-slip-deficit during the 2021 MW7.4 Maduo earthquake

Geodesy and Geodynamics
The shallow slip deficit (SSD) during strike-slip earthquakes raises a question of how the strain budget is accommodated over multiple cycles. However, the origin of variable SSD observed in different earthquakes is still under debate because each ...

Study on deformation characteristics and dynamic cause of the Luding MS6.8 earthquake

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
A MS6.8 earthquake struck Luding Country in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province on 5 September 2022. The earthquake occurred on the Moxi segment of Xianshuihe fault zone (XFZ), one of the most seismically active faults in the Chinese mainland.

Frictional Heterogeneity Governs Slip Partitioning and Seismic Hazard in the 2023 Turkey Earthquake Doublet

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Quantifying fault frictional properties is fundamental to understanding slip behavior and seismic hazard. We analyze 2 years of Sentinel‐1 SAR data following the 2023 Turkey earthquake doublet using Independent Component Analysis‐enhanced Small Baseline Subset‐InSAR, to resolve postseismic deformation and invert for afterslip on the East ...

Influence of Structural Maturity on the Rupture Morphology of the Northern Alpine Fault, Aotearoa New Zealand

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Alpine Fault (AF) in Aotearoa New Zealand is a fast‐slipping plate boundary fault late in its seismic cycle that presents a major source of seismic hazard. Past earthquakes have created a structural‐geomorphic record of surface ruptures that we map and analyze for the northern AF using 1,000 km2 ${\text{km}}^{2}$ of Light Detection and ...

Three Dimensional Coseismic Deformation and Fault Slip of Maduo Mw 7.4 Earthquake from Joint Sentinel -1a and Gnss Observation

, 2023
On May 22, 2021, Mw 7.4 Maduo earthquake occurred in Qinhai province, China, which is located on Kunlunshankou-Jiangcuo fault China. In this paper, two type of the coseismic deformation of Maduo are reached using (interferometric synthetic aperture radar)

Geodetic Strain Rates, Slip Deficit Rates, and Seismic Potential in the Tianshan, Central Asia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract The Tianshan is an intracontinental orogenic belt that has experienced over 100 Mw ≥ 6 earthquakes since 1700. However, strain rates and slip deficit rates on mapped faults in this region—key factors in assessing its seismic potential—remain underexplored.

Bilateral Supershear Rupture of the 2025 MW 7.7 Myanmar Earthquake Imaged by Global P‐Wave and Regional Surface‐Wave Back‐Projections

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract We present high‐resolution rupture imaging of the 2025 MW 7.7 Myanmar earthquake using global teleseismic P‐waves and regional‐distance Rayleigh waves. Most radiated energy was released near the epicenter within the first 20 s, followed by bilateral rupture propagation along the central Sagaing Fault, extending ∼350 km southward and ∼100 km ...

Impact of Optical Imagery and Topography Data Resolution on the Measurement of Surface Fault Displacement Using Sub‐Pixel Image Correlation

Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract The amount and spatial distribution of surface displacement that occurs during an earthquake are critical information to the understanding of the earthquake source and rupture processes. However, the earthquake surface displacement occurs over wide regions, includes multiple components that affect the ground surface at different spatial scales,
