Journal ArticleDOI
Geodetic, teleseismic, and strong motion constraints on slip from recent southern Peru subduction zone earthquakes
Matthew E. Pritchard,Edmundo Norabuena,Chen Ji,Chen Ji,Rubén Boroschek,Diana Comte,Mark Simons,Timothy H. Dixon,Paul A. Rosen +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used seismic and geodetic data both jointly and separately to constrain coseismic slip from the 12 November 1996 M_w 7.7 and 23 June 2001 M-w 8.5 southern Peru subduction zone earthquakes, as well as two large aftershocks following the 2001 earthquake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Source model of the 2007 Mw 8.0 Pisco, Peru earthquake: Implications for seismogenic behavior of subduction megathrusts
Anthony Sladen,Hernando Tavera,Mark Simons,Jean Philippe Avouac,A. O. Konca,Hugo Perfettini,Laurence Audin,Eric J. Fielding,F. Ortega,Robin Cavagnoud +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar, teleseismic body waves, tsunami waveforms recorded by tsunameters, and field observations of coastal uplift, subsidence, and runup to develop and test a refined model of the spatiotemporal history of slip during the Mw 8.0 Pisco earthquake of 15 August 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Damage Mapping for the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha Earthquake Using Synthetic Aperture Radar Data from COSMO–SkyMed and ALOS-2 Satellites
Sang-Ho Yun,Kenneth W. Hudnut,Susan Owen,Frank Webb,Mark Simons,Patrizia Sacco,Eric Gurrola,Gerald Manipon,Cunren Liang,Eric J. Fielding,Pietro Milillo,Hook Hua,Alessandro Coletta +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used these radar observations and rapidly produced damage proxy maps (DPMs) derived from temporal changes in Interferometric SAR coherence, which were qualitatively validated through comparison with independent damage analyses by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research’s United Nations Operational Satellite Applications Programme, and based on their own visual inspection of DigitalGlobe's WorldView optical pre- versus postevent imagery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Locations of selected small earthquakes in the Zagros mountains
Rowena B. Lohman,Mark Simons +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors surveyed all Mw > 4.5 earthquakes in the Harvard Centroid Moment Tensor (HCMT) and International Seismological Centre (ISC) catalogs that occurred in the Zagros mountains during the period 1992-2002 and that were spanned by InSAR images from the ERS 1 and 2 satellites.
