Slip-Parallel Seismic Lineations on the Northern Hayward Fault, California
A high-resolution relative earthquake location procedure is used to image the fine-scale seismicity structure of the northern Hayward fault, California. The seismicity defines a narrow, near-vertical fault zone containing horizontal alignments of hypocenters extending along the fault zone. The lineations persist over the 15-year observation interval, implying the localization of conditions on t...
متن کاملA Double-Difference Earthquake Location Algorithm: Method and Application to the Northern Hayward Fault, California
We have developed an efficient method to determine high-resolution hypocenter locations over large distances. The location method incorporates ordinary absolute travel-time measurements and/or cross-correlation P-and S-wave differential travel-time measurements. Residuals between observed and theoretical travel-time differences (or double-differences) are minimized for pairs of earthquakes at e...
متن کاملFault structure and mechanics of the Hayward Fault, California, from doubledifference earthquake locations
[1] The relationship between small-magnitude seismicity and large-scale crustal faulting along the Hayward Fault, California, is investigated using a double-difference (DD) earthquake location algorithm. We used the DD method to determine high-resolution hypocenter locations of the seismicity that occurred between 1967 and 1998. The DD technique incorporates catalog travel time data and relativ...
متن کامل33 Seismic Imaging of the San Andreas Fault in Northern California using Receiver Functions
Scattering of teleseismic body waves is conventionally used to investigate crustal and mantle structure using the so-called “receiver function” technique. This approach makes use of the fact that teleseismic events have nearvertical incidence upon horizontally layered structure, ensuring minimum phase, and assumes that source-time functions can be approximated by energy on the P component of mo...
متن کاملDouble-Difference Tomography: The Method and Its Application to the Hayward Fault, California
We have developed a double-difference (DD) seismic tomography method that makes use of both absolute and relative arrival times. By reducing systematic errors using the more accurate relative arrival times, the method produces an improved velocity model. Simultaneously, it yields event locations of a quality equivalent to those of the DD location method, while avoiding simplifying assumptions o...
