Recent Crustal Deformation in West-Central South America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
I use interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) to create maps of crustal deformation along the coast and within the volcanic arc of central South America. I image deformation associated with six subduction zone earthquakes, four volcanic centers,

Do Shallow Slip Deficits Reflect Fault Structural Maturity or Modeling Choices? A Comparative Analysis of Tibetan Strike‐Slip Earthquakes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract InSAR‐constrained finite fault slip models are often used to characterize fault geometries and slip distributions of large continental earthquakes. A common feature of these models is a decrease in slip near the surface, commonly expressed as a percentage shallow slip deficit (SSD).

Influence of anelastic surface layers on postseismic thrust fault deformation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2000
We present the results of a systematic modeling study of postseismic deformation following blind thrust earthquakes. The results include qualitative and quantitative predictions of the surface movement caused by relaxation in viscoelastic near‐surface layers.

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

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 ...

Mechanical Decoupling Across the Deep Megathrust Boundary

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 11, November 2026.
Abstract We examine stress and strength across the deep subduction plate boundary at ∼60 km depth offshore northeastern Japan, near the downdip seismic limit of the megathrust. High‐frequency (2–5 Hz) moment tensor inversion of ∼2,000 M 2–3.5 earthquakes, integrated with existing catalogs, increases the number of focal mechanisms by more than a factor ...

Constraining Fault Kinematics and India‐Tarim Convergence Partitioning in Southwestern Tibet With Geodetic Block Modeling

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract How the convergent strain between the India Plate and the Tarim basin is partitioned by active faults and off‐fault deformation in southwestern Tibet is poorly understood due to limited knowledge of strain localisation and fault kinematics. In this study, we derive high‐resolution velocity fields for the southwestern Tibetan Plateau using both

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.

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.
