Fault slip distribution and fault roughness [PDF]
We present analysis of the spatial correlations of seismological slip maps and fault topography roughness, illuminating their identical self-affine exponent. Though the complexity of the coseismic spatial slip distribution can be intuitively associated with geometrical or stress heterogeneities along the fault surface, this has never been demonstrated.

Earthquake slip distribution: A statistical model [PDF]
The purpose of this paper is to interpret slip statistics in a framework of extended earthquake sources. We first discuss deformation pattern of the Earth's surface from earthquakes and suggest that continuum versus block motion controversy can be reconciled by a model of the fractal distribution of seismic sources.

Heterogeneous Slip Distribution Self-Similarity on a Fault Surface
The earthquake slip distribution self-similarity is investigated in this study. We complied finite fault slip models for earthquakes in the Taiwan orogenic belt and global earthquakes to determine the slip distribution self-similarity.

The equivalence of geophysical fields, the finiteness of measurements and the measurement errors make the result of geophysical inversion non-unique. For example, the measurements and inversion method used, the priori rupture model determined and the ...

Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake coseismic slip distribution inversion
By using GPS and gravity data before and after the Wenchuan M s8.0 earthquake and combining data from geological surveys and geophysical inversion studies, an initial coseismic fault model is constructed.

Power‐law distribution of fault slip‐rates in southern California
The spatial partitioning of deformation in the continental crust and, in particular, at plate boundary zones is determined by the distribution of fault slip‐rates. Analytic and numerical models of strain accumulation in the elastic upper crust have been divided into those that parameterize faulting as localized on a finite length fault system comprised

Different types of focal mechanism solutions for the 19 March 2021 Mw 5.7 Nakchu earthquake, Tibet, limit our understanding of this earthquake’s seismogenic mechanism and geodynamic process.

We use ALOS-2 and Sentinel-1 data spanning 2015–2020 to obtain the post-seismic deformation of the 2015 Mw 7.8 Nepal earthquake. ALOS-2 observations reveal that the post-seismic deformation was mainly distributed in four areas.

Source Model for the 2022 Qinghai Menyuan Ms 6.9 Earthquake Based on D-InSAR
On 8 January 2022, an Ms 6.9 earthquake occurred in Menyuan County, Qinghai Province, China. This earthquake ruptured a patch of the Qilian-Haiyuan fault in the northeast margin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
