Complex nonvolcanic tremor near Parkfield, California, triggered by the great 2004 Sumatra earthquake
[1] In several instances, the passing surface waves from large earthquakes have ignited nonvolcanic tremor (NVT) on major faults. Still, the mechanism of tremor and its reaction to the dynamic stressing from various body and surface waves is poorly understood. We examine tremor near Parkfield, California, beneath the San Andreas fault triggered by the Mw 9.2, 2004 Sumatra earthquake. The prolon...
متن کاملShort Note Temporal Variations in Crustal Scattering Structure near Parkfield, California, Using Receiver Functions
We investigate temporal variations in teleseismic receiver functions using 11 yr of data at station PKD near Parkfield, California, by stacking power spectral density (PSD) functions within 12-month windows. We find that PSD levels for both radial and transverse components drop by ∼5 dB following the 2003 San Simeon (M 6.5) earthquake, with a persistent reduction in background levels of ∼2 dB, ...
متن کاملSeismicity Alert Probabilities at Parkfield, California, Revisited
For a decade, the U.S. Geological Survey has used the Parkfield Earthquake Prediction Experiment scenario document to estimate the probability that earthquakes observed on the San Andreas fault near Parkfield will turn out to be foreshocks followed by the expected magnitude 6 mainshock. During this time, we have learned much about the seismogenic process at Parkfield, about the long-term probab...
متن کاملLong‐term monitoring of ULF electromagnetic fields at Parkfield, California
Received 3 March 2009; revised 13 October 2009; accepted 30 October 2009; published 9 April 2010. [1] Electric and magnetic fields in the (10–1.0) Hz band were monitored at two sites adjacent to the San Andreas Fault near Parkfield and Hollister, California, from 1995 to 2007. A data window (2002–2005), enclosing the 28 September 2004 M6 Parkfield earthquake, was analyzed to determine if anomal...
متن کاملRupture Directivity Characteristics of the 2003 Big Bear Sequence
Abstract We have developed a forward modeling technique to retrieve rupture characteristics of small earthquakes (3 < M < 5), including rupture propagation direction, fault dimension, and rupture speed. The technique is based on an empirical Green’s function (EGF) approach, where we use data from collocated smaller events as Green’s functions to study the bigger events. We tend to choose smalle...
