Spatiotemporal Evolution of Postseismic Deformation Following the 2001 Mw7.8 Kokoxili, China, Earthquake from 7 Years of Insar Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
The 2001 Mw7.8 Kokoxili earthquake, which occurred in the north Tibetan Plateau, ruptured ~400 km of the westernmost portion of the Kunlun fault and produced significant time-dependent postseismic deformation over a large area around the rupture zone and

Coseismic and Postseismic Crustal Deformation Associated With the 2016 Kumamoto Earthquake Sequence Revealed by PALSAR‐2 Pixel Tracking and InSAR

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2020
Coseismic and postseismic crustal deformations caused by earthquake episodes are important in understanding the mechanisms of these episodes as well as the fault rheology near an epicentral area.

Spatiotemporal functional modeling of postseismic deformations after the 2011 Tohoku-Oki earthquake

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2022
Postseismic deformations continue to occur for a long period after major earthquakes. Temporal changes in postseismic deformations can be approximated using simple functions.

Modulation of Slow Slip Event Characteristics Throughout the Costa Rica Subduction Zone Earthquake Cycle

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Slow slip events (SSEs) represent an aseismic transient slip mode that repeats quasi‐periodically, near or partially overlapping with the megathrust earthquake zone. However, the process of stress interaction between SSEs and earthquake zones is not clearly understood.

Rapid early afterslip characteristics of the 2010 moment magnitude (Mw) 8.8 Maule earthquake determined with sub-daily GPS solutions

open access: yesSatellite Navigation
Ground surface deformations can be observed during the coseismic and postseismic periods. The accurate determination of displacements is of paramount importance for the assessment of the destructive power of large earthquakes and the characterization of ...

Coseismic and Postseismic Deformations of the 2023 Turkey Earthquake Doublet

open access: yesRemote Sensing
On 6 February 2023, an earthquake doublet of Mw 7.8 and Mw 7.5 occurred in southeastern Turkey and caused surface ruptures over 350 km for the eastern Anatolian fault (EAF) and 150 km for the Surgu fault (SF), respectively. Over 3700 Mw > 3.0 aftershocks

Omori-like slow decay (p < 1) of postseismic displacement rates following the 2011 Tohoku megathrust earthquake

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
We infer the postseismic deformation mechanisms following the 2011 Tohoku megathrust earthquake via an analysis of onshore geodetic observations. We focus on the temporal decay characteristics of postseismic deformation using continuous time-series data ...

Investigating Postseismic Creep in the Laboratory: Testing Dislocation‐Based Models for Transient Creep in the Upper Mantle

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Studies of postseismic creep often infer a strong reduction in upper‐mantle viscosity after large earthquakes, yet the microphysical mechanism responsible for this behavior remains subject of debate. Here, we present new gas‐medium apparatus experiments at 1100–1200°C on pre‐dried, annealed Åheim dunite (grain size of 400 μ ${\upmu }$m ...

Decadal Creep Acceleration on the Northern Japan Trench Driven by Erosion of Heterogeneously Locked Asperities

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Geodetic and seismic observations before the 2011 Mw 9.0 Tohoku‐oki earthquake indicate decadal‐scale acceleration of aseismic slip along the northern Japan Trench, but the mechanism remains debated. We show that this transient can be explained by creep‐front propagation that progressively erodes heterogeneously locked asperities.

Offshore Landward Motion Shortly After a Subduction Earthquake Implies Rapid Relocking of the Shallow Megathrust

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Geodetic observations after large subduction earthquakes reflect multiple postseismic processes, including megathrust relocking. The timing of relocking and the observational constraints on it are unclear.
