Prolonged seismically induced erosion and the mass balance of a large earthquake
Large earthquakes deform the Earth's surface and drive topographic growth in the frontal
zones of mountain belts. They also induce widespread mass wasting, reducing relief. The …

Postseismic relaxation driven by brittle creep: A possible mechanism to reconcile geodetic measurements and the decay rate of aftershocks, application to the Chi‐Chi …
H Perfettini, JP Avouac - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
We evaluate the effect of coseismic stress changes on the fault slip at midcrustal depth,
assuming a velocity‐strengthening brittle creep rheology. We show that this model can help …
