Collaborative Research: Time-dependent imaging of earthquake cycle behavior across the Jap — NSF Award to Smith College (MA, $128,

This project aims to estimate fault slip rates across Japan over the past 25 years using geodetic data and computational models. Combining three-dimensional fault system models with statistical tracking techniques, Meade, Loveless, and their students will estimate daily slip distributions on major fault zones in Japan.

AbstractThis project aims to estimate fault slip rates across Japan over the past 25 years using geodetic data and computational models. Combining three-dimensional fault system models with statistical tracking techniques, Meade, Loveless, and their students will estimate daily slip distributions on major fault zones in Japan. This comprehensive model will help to show how fault movements are interconnected over time and space, and how slip rates vary with time between large earthquakes. This research i
