Slip rates on the Chelungpu and Chushiang thrust faults inferred from a deformed strath terrace along the Dungpuna river, west central Taiwan [PDF]

, 2007
The Chelungpu fault produced the September 1999 M_w = 7.6 Chi-Chi earthquake, central Taiwan. The shortening rate accommodated by this structure, integrated over several seismic cycles, and its contribution to crustal shortening across the Taiwanese ...

Geologic context of geodetic data across a Basin and Range normal fault, Crescent Valley, Nevada [PDF]

, 2004
Geodetic strain and late Quaternary faulting in the Basin and Range province is distributed over a region much wider than historic seismicity, which is localized near the margins of the province.

Role of Slabs in Postseismic Deformation Following Deep Earthquakes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth
Abstract The Earth's viscoelastic postseismic deformation reflects its rheological structure. Even though low‐viscosity structures, such as the asthenosphere, are often thought to dominate postseismic deformation induced by shallow earthquakes, high‐viscosity subducting slabs have also been found to considerably affect postseismic ...

Postseismic deformation due to subcrustal viscoelastic relaxation following dip‐slip earthquakes [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1984
The deformation of the earth following a dip‐slip earthquake is calculated by using a three‐layer rheological model and finite element techniques. The three layers are an elastic upper lithosphere, a standard linear solid lower lithosphere, and a Maxwell viscoelastic asthenosphere. Attention is focused on the magnitude of the postseismic subsidence and

A 3D finite-element mesh for modeling large-scale surface deformation induced by subduction megathrust earthquakes: Application to Chile

Seismica
Megaearthquakes (Mw > 8) cause continental-scale, long-lasting surface deformation, mainly due to viscoelastic relaxation of the asthenosphere. To investigate the links between this deformation and the slip history along subduction interfaces—including ...

Postseismic rebound due to creep of the lower lithosphere and asthenosphere [PDF]

Postseismic surface deformations are attributed to the inelastic flow of the subcrustal regions of the Earth following an earthquake. A multilayer representation of the Earth's rheological properties is used in conjunction with a finite element ...

Crustal deformation, the earthquake cycle, and models of viscoelastic flow in the asthenosphere [PDF]

The crustal deformation patterns associated with the earthquake cycle can depend strongly on the rheological properties of subcrustal material. Substantial deviations from the simple patterns for a uniformly elastic earth are expected when viscoelastic ...

Postseismic viscoelastic surface deformation and stress. Part 1: Theoretical considerations, displacement and strain calculations [PDF]

A model of viscoelastic deformations associated with earthquakes is presented. A strike-slip fault is represented by a rectangular dislocation in a viscoelastic layer (lithosphere) lying over a viscoelastic half-space (asthenosphere).

Coseismic Rupture and Postseismic Afterslip of the 2020 Nima Mw 6.4 Earthquake

Remote Sensing
On 22 July 2020, an Mw 6.4 earthquake occurred in Nima County in the Qiangtang Terrane of the central Tibetan Plateau. This event, caused by normal faulting, remains controversial in terms of its rupture process and causative fault due to the complex ...

Fault-Parallel Postseismic Afterslip Following the 2020 Mw 6.4 Petrinja–Pokupsko Earthquake from Sentinel-1 SBAS Time Series

Remote Sensing
The Mw 6.4 Petrinja earthquake on 29 December 2020 ruptured the Petrinja-Pokupsko fault system in central Croatia, producing widespread coseismic deformation and subsequent postseismic processes.
