Studying postseismic deformation of the 2010–2011 Rigan earthquake sequence in SE Iran using geodetic data

open access: yes, 2020
In this paper, we study the spatial distribution and temporal evolution of the postseismic deformation of the 2010–2011 Rigan earthquake sequence which occurred at the southern termination of the East Lut fault system, southeast Iran.

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.

New Madrid strain and postseismic transients [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2007
A crucial issue for the assessment of earthquake hazard in the New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) of the central United States is whether the small motions inferred from geodetic measurements are actually the result of strain accumulation that will eventually be released in damaging earthquakes.

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 ...

Dislocation interactions in olivine control postseismic creep of the upper mantle [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
AbstractChanges in stress applied to mantle rocks, such as those imposed by earthquakes, commonly induce a period of transient creep, which is often modelled based on stress transfer among slip systems due to grain interactions. However, recent experiments have demonstrated that the accumulation of stresses among dislocations is the dominant cause of ...

Postseismic Deformation in the Northern Antarctic Peninsula Following the 2003 and 2013 Scotia Sea Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Large earthquakes in the vicinity of Antarctica have the potential to cause postseismic viscoelastic deformation affecting measurements of displacement that are used to constrain models of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA).

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.

Global postseismic gravity changes of a viscoelastic Earth [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1998
A spherically symmetric Earth model with a viscoelastic mantle and an inviscid core is used to study the gravitational perturbation due to a lithospheric shear dislocation in the coseismic and postseismic regime. Our approach is based on a quasi‐static solution of the equilibrium equations taking advantage of the normal mode technique for a layered ...

Interseismic Creep Along the Enriquillo–Plantain Garden Fault, Haiti, Estimated From InSAR

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract The Enriquillo–Plantain Garden fault zone (EPGFZ) is a major left‐lateral strike‐slip fault in southern Haiti hosting several recent destructive earthquakes, including the 2021 MW 7.1 Nippes event with primary thrust‐slip. To investigate how strain is accommodated in the vicinity of the 2021 event, we analyzed Sentinel‐1 interferometric ...

The use of Terrestrial Laser Scanning in characterizing active tectonic processes from postseismic slip to the long term growth of normal faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This thesis investigates two main hypotheses regarding uncertainty in the measurement of paleoseismic offsets used to estimate fault activity and paleoearthquake magnitudes on normal faults: (1) That variations in fault geometry have a significant effect
