Rupture features of the 2010 Mw 8.8 Chile earthquake extracted from surface waves

Abstract: This study used the rupture directivity theory to derive the fault parameters of the 2010 Mw 8.8 Chile earthquake on the basis of the azimuth-dependent source duration obtained from the Rayleigh-wave phase velocity. Results revealed that the 2010 Chile earthquake featured asymmetric bilateral faulting. The two rupture directions were N171°E (northward) and N17°E (southward), with rupture lengths of approximately 313 and 118 km, respectively, and were related to the locking degree in the source region. The enti… Show more

“…Our PKIKP phase BP results are consistent with BP results resolved by direct P phase BP (Figure 3b, d;and Koper et al, 2012) in terms of the north branch length and direction. However, published studies show discrepancies in the rupture direction, length, and speed for the south branch (Koper et al, 2012;Zhang, 2018;Palo et al, 2014;Huang et al, 2017). By comparing our BP results from PKIKP and P phases, we find that the former resolves a clearer south branch (Figure 3a, c).…”
