Fault interactions and triggering during the 10 January 2012 M w 7.2 Sumatra earthquake

Earthquake in a maze: compressional rupture branching during the 2012 M(w) 8.6 Sumatra earthquake.

Seismological observations of the 2012 moment magnitude 8.6 Sumatra earthquake reveal unprecedented complexity of dynamic rupture. The surprisingly large magnitude results from the combination of deep extent, high stress drop, and rupture of multiple faults. Back-projection source imaging indicates that the rupture occurred on distinct planes in an orthogonal conjugate fault system, with relati...

The 2012 Sumatra great earthquake sequence

recorded (moment magnitudes Mw1⁄48.6 and 8.2). Broadband seismological observations of the Mw1⁄48.6 mainshock indicate a large centroid depth ( 30 km) and remarkable rupture complexity. Detailed study of the surface-wave directivity and moment rate functions clearly indicates the partition of the rupture into at least two distinct subevents. To account for these observations, we developed a pro...

In the early 1960s, Anthony Edwards and Luca Cavalli-Sforza made an effort to apply R.A. Fisher’s maximum likelihood (ML) method to estimate genealogical trees of human populations using gene frequency data. They used the Yule branching process to describe the probabilities of the trees and branching times and the Brownian motion process to model the drift of gene frequencies (after a suitable ...
