Rapid procedures (i.e. within 5 to 15 minutes) for earthquake and tsunami early warnings focus on earthquake location, depth, magnitude, and slowness, but initial tsunami early warnings are more often issued without knowing the mechanism of the earthquake. Kawakatsu (1998) proposed using a limited number of stations to automatically detect, locate and determine the source parameters of earthqua...
We developed a new method to determine earthquake source time functions and focal depths. It uses theoretical Green’s function and a time-domain deconvolution with positivity constraint to estimate the source time function from the teleseismic P waveforms. The earthquake focal depth is also determined in the process by using the time separations of the direct P and depth phases. We applied this...
The rate- and state-dependent constitutive formulation for fault slip characterizes an exceptional variety of materials over a wide range of sliding conditions. This formulation provides a unified representation of diverse sliding phenomena including slip weakening over a characteristic sliding distance Dc, apparent fracture energy at a rupture front, time-dependent healing after rapid slip, an...
Immediately following the 1966 Parkfield earthquake a continuing program of fault displacement measurements was undertaken, and several types of instruments were installed in the fault zone to monitor ground motion. In the year subsequent to the earthquake a maximum of at least 20 cm of displacement occurred on a 30 km section of the San Andreas fault, which far exceeded the surfidal displaceme...
The moderate magnitude Chamoli earthquake, which occurred on 29 March, 1999 in the Alkananda river valley region of Garhwal Himalaya, caused considerable loss to human life and property. From a systematic ®eld survey of the damage, conducted for ®ve continuous days immediately after the earthquake, the following could be noted: (i) The consequences of the damage are most pronounced near the Mai...
The Gorkha earthquake (magnitude 7.8) on 25 April 2015 and later aftershocks struck South Asia, killing ~9000 people and damaging a large region. Supported by a large campaign of responsive satellite data acquisitions over the earthquake disaster zone, our team undertook a satellite image survey of the earthquakes' induced geohazards in Nepal and China and an assessment of the geomorphic, tecto...
A class of probability models for earthquake occurrences, called shortterm exciting, long-term correcting (SELC) models, is presented. This class encompasses features of two different classes of models presently used in hazard analysis to characterize earthquake catalogs: (1) self-exciting models and (2) self-correcting models. It offers the potential for a unified approach to the analysis and ...
The near-surface areas of major faults commonly contain weak, phyllosilicate minerals, which, based on laboratory friction measurements, are assumed to creep stably. However, it is now known that shallow faults can experience tens of meters of earthquake slip and also host slow and transient slip events. Laboratory experiments are generally performed at least two orders of magnitude faster than...
The near-source energy released on a fault is estimated through the strain energy change and the fracture energy from the results of kinematic waveform inversion and dynamic modeling for two different types of earthquakes: a shallow crustal earthquake, the 2000 Tottori, Japan (Mw 6.6) earthquake, and an in-slab event, the 1999 Oaxaca, Mexico (Mw 7.5) earthquake. The procedure incorporates the s...
Because seismic activity within mid-continents is usually much lower than that along plate boundary zones, even small earthquakes can cause widespread concerns, especially when these events occur in the source regions of previous large earthquakes. However, these small earthquakes may be just aftershocks that continue for decades or even longer. The recent seismicity in the Tangshan region in N...
