afterslip is particularly problematic because:

Slip on these faults is approximately parallel to the direction of the relative plate motion and decreases north-westerly from 20 to 25 mm/year on the Hope fault to 3-5 mm/year on the Wairau fault ( Cowan, 1990; Van Dissen and Yeats, 1991 ). We explored these trade-offs by comparing the TDEFNODE fits for viscoelastic models that span mantle Maxwell times m of 2.5 to 40yr. Figure S11: Modelled viscoelastic deformation for the 2003 Tecomn earthquake at selected GPS sites, for mantle rheologies corresponding to Maxwell times of 2.5 (blue), 15 (red) and 40yr (green). (2007). (2). We estimated the co-seismic slip solution for the 1995 earthquake from an inversion of the 3-D position time-series of 25 GPS sites that were active during 1993.28 to 1999.00. Most notably, the continuous sites COLI and COOB clearly experienced a gradual transition from slow post-seismic uplift in the years after the 2003 Tecomn earthquake to slow subsidence after 2015 (Figs3, 7a, 13, 17 and21), which our models fail to capture. 2018; Weiss etal. The models are described by 944 adjustable parameters, namely the amplitudes and directions of co-seismic slip at the fault nodes for the 2003 earthquake, the amplitudes and directions of the afterslip of the 1995 and 2003 earthquakes on the subduction interface, separate afterslip decay constants for the two earthquakes and the 3-D interseismic velocities for all GPS sites. Black dots locate the fault nodes where slip is estimated. Here, we invert 25yr of data to separate the long-term steady interseismic motion of each site from the transient deformation components. As an example, continuous GPS measurements at site COLI onshore from the 1995 and 2003 earthquakes (inset map in Fig. 4; also see Hutton etal. Think most companies, particularly at the ruptured fault would take between six and 12 years to 300 between Immature, says Erin Murphy for explaining the observation data challenging problem because of the afterslip13.8! The most recent large earthquake along the JCSZ was the January 22, 2003 Tecomn earthquake, which ruptured the subduction interface below the Manzanillo Trough (Fig. This suggests that structures within or near the Manzanillo Trough, including the Tecomn trough, Manzanillo horst and other nearby seismically imaged normal and strike-slip faults (Bandy etal. Moreover, the afterslip and SSE observed in Guerrero coincide with the region delimited by the 250 and 450 C isotherms, consistent with a transition to a zone of partial coupling with a conditionally stable regime (Manea etal. For models with the largest assumed Maxwell time (m = 40yr), the differences in the magnitudes of the cumulative viscoelastic deformation 25yr after the earthquake predicted by the different co-seismic slip solutions were smaller than 25mm or equivalently 1mm yr1. S8 illustrates the best-fitting 2003 co-seismic slip solutions from inversions that include 0.5 to 4.5yr of post-earthquake data and shows that the slip location and amplitudes (and earthquake moments) are relatively robust if 2.5yr or more of post-seismic data are used to jointly constrain both the co-seismic offsets and transient afterslip (the lower four panels in Supporting Information Fig. Dashed lines show the slab contours (extended from Hayes etal. 20 of the main document. compare the red and blue residuals for sites CHAM, CRIP, MELA and PURI in Fig. 3). 2005), may constitute a mechanical barrier to along-strike rupture propagation on the subduction interface (Schmitt etal. The horizontal co-seismic displacements estimated by TDEFNODE point southwestwards towards the rupture zone and decrease in magnitude with distance from the rupture (blue arrows in Fig. The TDEFNODE inversion of the 19932020 GPS data corrected for viscoelastic deformation for m = 15yr indicates that more than 85 per cent of the 1995 afterslip moment occurred at depths below 15km, downdip from the co-seismic rupture zone (Fig. Seismic observations have detected widespread NVT on the subduction interface downdip from the source regions of SSEs and offset downdip from the megathrust earthquake rupture zones (Payero etal. 2002; Schmitt etal. 2003, 2010; Brudzinski etal. 2007; Radiguet etal. S7). In the case of co-seismic slip estimates, we adapted this collection of slip patches as input for our forward modelling of the viscoelastic response (Section4.1). Geometry of the computational domain and rheological structure in modelling with RELAX. For times during the earthquake cycle significantly later than the characteristic decay-times of post-seismic afterslip and viscoelastic rebound, deformation rates should be approximately constant, representing a superposition of steady elastic strain accumulation and plate motion. 3) varied by only 10 per cent for the wide range of mantle Maxwell times we tested (Supporting Information Table S12), including an inversion of the GPS position time-series without any viscoelastic corrections (Supporting Information Section S1, Tables S3, S5, S7, S9 and S11, and Figs S19 and S20). Dashed lines show the slab contours every 20km. 2014; Freed etal. TLALOCNet and other GPS related operations from SGS have also been supported by the Consejo Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnologa (CONACyT) projects 253760, 256012 and 2017-01-5955, UNAM-Programa de Apoyo a Proyectos de Investigacin e Innovacin Tecnolgica (PAPIIT) projects IN104213, IN111509, IN109315-3, IN104818-3, IN107321 and supplemental support from UNAM-Instituto de Geofsica. White, yellow and red stars are the epicentres from Yagi etal. Dashed lines show the slab contours every 10km. Because many more campaign than continuous sites were operating during the early years of this study, when rapid post-seismic deformation after the 1995 ColimaJalisco earthquake occurred, we favoured the models that best fit the early campaign observations.

In the Supporting Information, we describe results from a TDEFNODE inversion of the GPS position time-series assuming that fault afterslip was the source of all the observed transient post-seismic deformation (i.e. 1997), respectively. Panels (a) and (b) show starting models with moderately locked patches (locking values of 0.5) and their predicted (synthetic) horizontal GPS velocities. 2012; Trubienko etal.

Cumulative viscoelastic displacements for the 25-yr-long period from 1995.77 to 2020.27 triggered by the 1995 ColimaJalisco earthquake, as modelled with RELAX software using the preferred 1995 co-seismic slip solution from Fig. The wrms misfits to the noisier vertical daily positions are 11.2mm at site COLI and average 18.6mm at the 23 campaign sites. The combined viscoelastic effects of the 1995 and 2003 earthquakes for the 25-yr interval spanned by our study constitute a non-negligible fraction of the overall deformation within our study area during the past few decades. Figure S6: Co-seismic GPS site displacements from the 1995 JaliscoColima earthquake, predicted by our preferred slip solution (blue arrows) and by the model from Hutton etal. 13). The inset map shows the site location and 1995 and 2003 earthquake rupture areas. 2001; Kostoglodov etal. \times\, \left[ A_{ij}^{\mathrm{co}\_k}+A_{ij}^{\mathrm{as}\_k}\log _{10}\left(1+\frac{t-t_{\mathrm{eq}\_k}}{\tau _{\mathrm{c}\_k}}\right)\right] We imposed a shear modulus = 40 GPa and a Poissons ratio = 0.25 for the whole domain. Despite the geometric similarities of the Guerrero and Oaxaca subduction interfaces, SSEs beneath Guerrero have larger magnitudes (M7.5) than those beneath Oaxaca (M6.57), and the SSEs are shallower, possibly intruding the seismogenic zone and releasing a portion of the accumulated shallow elastic strain (Kostoglodov etal. Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements in Jalisco began in the mid-1990s as part of an effort to study the regional subduction earthquake cycle and associated seismic hazards (DeMets etal. GPS station horizontal trajectories relative to a fixed NA plate for years 2003.082020.00. Coloured circles show the M 3.0 earthquakes with depths 60km from 1962 to 2017 from the United States Geologic Survey (USGS) catalogue. It is movement following an earthquake that continues to break pipes, aqueducts and other infrastructure for weeks and months. 12), increasing for models with shorter m (i.e. (2002) show that a combination of fault afterslip and viscoelastic rebound are needed to account for the observed transient post-seismic deformation. We analysed all of the GPS code-phase data with releases 6.3 and 6.4 of the GIPSY software suite from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). It furthers the University's objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide, This PDF is available to Subscribers Only. 20). Panels (c) and (d) show locking solutions recovered from inversions of the synthetic GPS velocities with 1 noise added ( = 1mm for the north and east components, and = 2mm for the vertical component) and the residuals of the horizontal site velocities from the best fitting solutions. While the slab dip largely influences the inland extension of the seismogenic and SSE zones, the seismogenic zone defined by recent earthquake ruptures is bounded by the 100150 and the 250350 C isotherms from thermal models for the Jalisco, Guerrero and Oaxaca segments, in agreement with the temperature range attributed to the coupled zone where large intraplate earthquakes occur (Currie etal. (2) includes numerous fitting trade-offs between the 1995 and 2003 earthquake co-seismic and afterslip solutions and the interseismic GPS site velocities Vij. Intercepts are arbitrary. 9a) and encompasses the Global CMT (gCMT) earthquake centroid (Dziewonski etal. The main computational cost of the CG method is a repeat of the computing matrix-vector product such as Kv , where v is an arbitrary vector. The interval used for the inversion was 1993.282005.50. Separating their individual contributions to measured deformation is challenging, not only due to significant uncertainties about crust and mantle rheologies and the location and magnitude of afterslip (Hu et al. 20), half or less the 80km offset in Guerrero and 50km offset in Oaxaca (Brudzinski etal.
