A Numerical Investigation of Boumerdes-Zemmouri (Algeria) Earthquake and Tsunami
On May 21, 2003 Boumerdes-Zemmouri (Algeria) earthquake generated a small tsunami, which was recorded at several locations around the coast of Balearic Islands, Spain. Recent field studies (Meghraoui, et al., 2004) and teleseismic wave analysis (Yiga, 2003) indicated that the earthquake magnitude is stronger than that suggested by the Harvard CMT solution. Moreover, the seafloor displacement is...
متن کاملDamage Detection Based on Object-based Segmentation and Classification from High-resolution Satellite Images for the 2003 Boumerdes, Algeria Earthquake
A strong earthquake of magnitude 6.8 struck the Mediterranean coast of Algeria on 21 May 2003 and the city of Zemmouri in Boumerdes province was most heavily damaged. QuickBird satellite observed the Zemmouri area on 23 May 2003. By image sharpening, buildings, cars and even debris can clearly be identified in a natural colour image. Preliminarily, the present authors performed visual damage in...
متن کاملFault friction parameters inferred from the early stages of afterslip following the 2003 Tokachi-oki earthquake
[1] We use subdaily GPS time series of positions in the first 5 hours following the 2003 Tokachi-oki earthquake (Mw = 8.0) located offshore of Hokkaido, Japan, to estimate frictional parameters for the afterslip zone on the subduction interface. The data show little motion immediately after the earthquake with sudden acceleration at about 1.2 hours after the main shock. This coincides with the ...
متن کاملFrictional afterslip following the 2005 Nias-Simeulue earthquake, Sumatra.
Continuously recording Global Positioning System stations near the 28 March 2005 rupture of the Sunda megathrust [moment magnitude (Mw) 8.7] show that the earthquake triggered aseismic frictional afterslip on the subduction megathrust, with a major fraction of this slip in the up-dip direction from the main rupture. Eleven months after the main shock, afterslip continues at rates several times ...
متن کاملModeling afterslip and aftershocks following the 1992 Landers earthquake
[1] One way to probe the rheology of the lithosphere and fault zones is to analyze the temporal evolution of deformation following a large earthquake. In such a case, the lithosphere responds to a known stress change that can be assessed from earthquake slip models constrained from seismology and geodesy. Here, we model the postseismic response of a fault zone that is assumed to obey a rate-str...
