GPS Data

Ben Brooks contributed two maps of coseismic and postseismic displacements plotted with inter-seismic velocities measured with GPS.


A map showing interseismic velocities (yellow) and Maule co-seismic displacement (red) for the M8.8 Chile earthquake. Data from 21 stations, especially in the near field area in Chile, come from the cGPS network installed under the framework of the chilean-french cooperation, the international laboratory "Montessus de Ballore". A description of the cooperation and networks is available at (https://www.lia-mb.net). A paper with 29 authors is currently in review. C. Vigny(1), A. Socquet(2), S. Peyrat (3), J.-C. Ruegg(2), M.

Simon Banville, working for Richard Langley at the University of New Brunswick has prepared plots of ground motion from GPS station CONZ, one of which is shown below:       longer time scale       shorter time scale



Fred Pollitz has prepared a map of the co-seismic displacement field

The above figure compares observed GPS static offsets (courtesy J.Foster, B.Brooks, Project CAP) with the predictions of a uniform-slip model. This model involves 5m slip on a 600 km long plane (shown as a composite of 12 sub-planes) extending from 60 km to the surface. Following the global CMT solution, the fault dips 18 deg toward the East and strikes N17.5E, and the slip vector has a rake of 112 deg. The uniform dislocation is imposed on the PREM model and calculated in a spherical geometry (Pollitz, 1996). The amplitude of the displacement field is matched well in the far field -- suggesting that the average slip of the earthquake is close to the assumed value of 5m. The data considered so far indicate that slip in the northern part is somewhat less than 5m, and slip is likely variable over the considered fault surface.

Source Model

ALOS PALSAR data provided by JAXA throuth the ASF and processed using GMTSAR Xiaopeng Tong (xitong@ucsd.edu) and David Sandwell (dsandwell@ucsd.edu)

Preliminary coseismic slip model from joint inversion of InSAR and GPS data. The dominant sense of motion is thrust along with minor right-slip. Most of the moment is released from the surface to 150 km down-dip, corresponding to 38.8 km in depth, which means most of the moment is released above the depth of Moho. The most intensive slip area (> 19 m) is at the northern part of the fault, about 170 km north of the epicenter. GPS data is courtesy of Ben Brooks, James Foster, Mike Bevis, Bob Smalley, Hector Parra, Juan Carlos Soto, Eric Kendrick, Jeff Genrich. The line-of sight ALOS InSAR data are also provided. These ascii data are unwrapped, subsampled, and calibrated using the GPS data in the region. ftp://topex.ucsd.edu/pub/chile_eq/chile_insar.zip
