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.

Probing time-dependent afterslip and viscoelastic relaxation following the 2015 Mw7.8 Gorkha earthquake based on the 3-D finite-element model

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
We analyzed daily displacement time series from 34 continuous GPS stations in Nepal and 5 continuous GPS stations in South Tibet, China, and extracted the first 4.8 years of postseismic motion after the 2015 Mw7.8 Gorkha earthquake.

Viscoelastic relaxation of the upper mantle and afterslip following the 2014 MW8.1 Iquique earthquake

open access: yesEarthquake Research Advances, 2021
An improved understanding of postseismic crustal deformation following large subduction earthquakes may help to better understand the rheological properties of upper mantle and the slip behavior of subduction interface.

Co- and Postseismic Deformation of the 2020 Mw 6.3 Nima (Tibet, China) Earthquake Revealed by InSAR Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
On 22 July 2020, an Mw 6.3 earthquake occurred in Nima County, central Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China. We used the synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) technique with Sentinel-1 images to retrieve the line of sight (LOS) coseismic deformation ...

Seismogenic, coseismic and postseismic deformation and stress evolution of the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake: Numerical simulation analysis

open access: yesDizhi lixue xuebao, 2021
The 2008 MS 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake occurred in the Longmenshan fault zone, which has complex geological background, strong surface relief, and heterogeneous elastic-viscous structures; however, the seismic risk of the Longmenshan fault zone was ...

Postseismic deformation and the strength of ductile shear zones [PDF]

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2014
A good understanding of the rheology and strength of the whole crust is needed to obtain a physics-based earthquake prediction models. However, geodynamics-based and laboratory-based strength estimates disagree. Geodynamics tend to indicate that the actual strength of the plastic crust is less than deduced from laboratory experiments.

Postseismic deformation following the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake detected by ALOS-2/PALSAR-2

open access: yesEarth, Planets and Space, 2020
I have been conducting a study of postseismic deformation following the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake using ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 acquired till 2018. I apply ionospheric correction to interferograms of ALOS-2/PALSAR-2.

Homogeneous vs heterogeneous subduction zone models: Coseismic and postseismic deformation [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2001
A finite‐element model (FEM) incorporating geologic properties characteristic of a subduction zone is compared with FEMs approximating homogeneous elastic half‐spaces (HEHS)s to investigate the effect of heterogeneity on coseismic and postseismic deformation predictions for the 1995 Colima‐Jalisco Mw =8.0 earthquake.

Coseismic and Early Postseismic Deformation of the 2020 Mw 6.4 Petrinja Earthquake (Croatia) Revealed by InSAR

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The largest earthquake (Mw 6.4) in northwestern Croatia ruptured the faults near the city of Petrinja on 29 December 2020, at 11:19 UTC. The epicenter was located ~3 km southwest of Petrinja, ~40 km southeast of Zagreb, the capital of the Republic of ...

Postseismic deformation following the 1997 Umbria‐Marche (Italy) moderate normal faulting earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2003
We combine aftershock strain mapping, GPS measurements and leveling profiles with forward modeling of viscoelastic relaxation to study the postseismic deformation of the 1997 Umbria‐Marche (Central Apennines) earthquake sequence. We explore the feasibility of GPS monitoring of postseismic transients, for the first time in Italy, generated by shallow ...
