3 Chile Alaska The Quiet Days Rocking & Rolling Sumatra I started grad school at Caltech Seismo Lab Global Broadband Seismic Networks hr-gps Networks DART expansion after, Ammon et al., SRL, 2010
4 Resolutions of Joint inversion

Sumatran Fault? Sumba potential?

15 The tsunami hazard is produced by the large slip out near the trench. The shaking hazard from the low slip area down-dip on the fault near the coast. The boxes are regions where strong motions were generated. Lay et al., JGR, 2012
16 Feb. 27, 2010 Chile M w 8.8 Filling the 1835 seismic gap? But it went well beyond that c Updated From: Lay et al., GRL, 2010
17 Complementary pattern with the aftershock distribution [Yue et al. 2014b]
18 Summary: Recent great ruptures share similar depth-varying frequency-dependence. It has been recognized that upper 15 km depth range had tsunami earthquakes, with very low short-period radiation, but central portion of megathrust also has little coherent short-period radiation. Lay et al., JGR, 2012
