Local-scale cross-correlation of seismic noise from the Calico fault experiment
Most studies of seismic noise cross-correlation (NCC) have focused on regional/continental scale imaging using empirical surface-wave Green’s functions extracted from primary (0.05–0.08 Hz) and secondary (0.1–0.16 Hz) microseisms. In this work, we present the NCC results at higher frequencies ([0.5 Hz) from 6 months seismic noise recorded by a local array (*4 km aperture) deployed along the Cal...
متن کاملEarthquake recurrence-time variations with and without fault-zone interactions
The macroscopic behaviour of a fault zone can be described by a classic Coulomb friction law and static^kinetic rheology. The critical failure stress leading to the activation of a single shear zone segment then depends on the normal stress acting on the future fault plane. It is known that the seismic cycle on a main fault patch can be modulated by surrounding fault activations, leading to int...
متن کاملSeismic Fault Rheology and Earthquake Dynamics
As preparation for this Dahlem Workshop on The Dynamics of Fault Zones, specifically on the subtopic “Rheology of Fault Rocks and Their Surroundings,” we addressed critical research issues for understanding the seismic response of fault zones in terms of the constitutive response of fault materials. This requires new concepts and a host of new observations and experiments to document material r...
متن کاملMultiple-fault rupture of the M7.1 Hector Mine, California, earthquake from fault zone trapped waves
[1] We studied the complex multiple-faulting pattern of the 40-km-long rupture zone of the 1999 M7.1 Hector Mine, California, earthquake with fault zone trapped waves generated by near-surface explosions and aftershocks, and recorded by linear seismic arrays deployed across the surface rupture. The explosion excited trapped waves, with relatively large amplitudes at 3–5 Hz and a long duration o...
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 ...
