Late Stage Interseismic Strain Interval, Cascadia Subduction Zone Margin, USA and Canada

Abstract: Modern horizontal strain (2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015)(2016) measured along 56 new and 108 previously published GPS station baselines are used to establish the length (800 km) and width (300 -400 km) of the central Cascadia convergent margin seismogenic structure. Across-margin (west-east) annual rates of shortening range from 10 −9 a −1 at the eastern (landward) limit of the central Cascadia seismogenic structure to 10 −7 a −1 along the western onshore portion of the interplate … Show more

“…Surface GPS stations can be used to look at the variation in the vertical component of GPS station motion [24]. Though not recording vertical strain, the GPS station velocity data do demonstrate vertical deformation at the regional scale.…”

“…However, the duration of the first stage of the interseismic strain interval, a period of interplate recoupling, might last only a few decades after coseismic subsidence. Tectonic uplift during the middle stage of the interseismic interval could emerge the tidal flats to pre-subsidence tidal elevations within another 100-200 years (Cruikshank & Peterson, 2017). The third stage of the present interseismic interval in Willapa Bay is characterized by slight subsidence (several millimeters per year), based on a decade of averaged GPS station vertical velocities.…”
