The 2011 Magnitude 9.0 Tohoku-Oki Earthquake: Mosaicking the Megathrust from Seconds to Centuries
Mark Simons,Sarah E. Minson,Anthony Sladen,Anthony Sladen,F. Ortega,Junle Jiang,Susan Owen,Lingsen Meng,Jean-Paul Ampuero,Shengji Wei,Risheng Chu,Donald V. Helmberger,Hiroo Kanamori,Eric A. Hetland,Angelyn Moore,Frank Webb +15 more
TL;DR: Detailed geophysical measurements reveal features of the 2011 Tohoku-Oki megathrust earthquake and suggest the need to consider the potential for a future large earthquake just south of this event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Updated repeat orbit interferometry package released
TL;DR: RO1_PAC as mentioned in this paper is a Repeat Orbit Interferometry package that allows topographic and surface change researchers to apply Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Frictional Afterslip Following the 2005 Nias-Simeulue Earthquake, Sumatra
Ya-Ju Hsu,Mark Simons,Jean Philippe Avouac,John Galetzka,Kerry Sieh,Mohamed Chlieh,Danny H. Natawidjaja,L. Prawirodirdjo,Yehuda Bock +8 more
TL;DR: It is observed that the cumulative number of aftershocks increases linearly with postseismic displacements; this finding suggests that the temporal evolution ofAftershocks is governed by afterslip.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete (3-D) surface displacement field in the epicentral area of the 1999 Mw7.1 Hector Mine earthquake, California, from space geodetic observations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used InSAR data to derive continuous maps for three orthogonal components of the co-seismic surface displacement field due to the 1999 M_w7.1 Hector Mine earthquake in southern California.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-dimensional deformation caused by the Bam, Iran, earthquake and the origin of shallow slip deficit
TL;DR: The InSAR-derived surface displacement data from the Bam and other large shallow earthquakes suggest that the uppermost section of the seismogenic crust around young and developing faults may undergo a distributed failure in the interseismic period, thereby accumulating little elastic strain.
