Earthquake RecurrenceOutline of this lecture • Simple models of earthquake recurrence • Segmentation • Earthquake rate models: Gutenberg-Richter and Characteristic • Earthquake recurrence simulation
A. Periodic earthquake model in which stress levels at the time of rupture and after it are known. These yield a predictable time and slip for each earthquake. B. Time-predictable model based on a consistent stress level at which failure occurs. Stress drop and slip magnitude are unpredictable, but given previous slip, time until the next earthquake (with unknown slip) is predictable. C. Slip-predictable model based on a consistent stress level at the end of an earthquake. Given time since the last rupture, magnitude of slip is predictable.

Basic fault segmentation Burbank and Anderson
Fault zone is comprised of heterogeneous non coplanar fault surfaces bounding oblate blocks whose geometry and activity varies in time and space 3D mixed mode stepover Cross-section view mode III step (bend) Map view mode II step (bend) Questions: Geometric—Fault surface and block shapes and sizes Time—How long are they active? What is slip history? Block motion history? Development—Linkage and evolution of roughness • Strong influences on • Stress and displacement fields around the fault surfaces • Further development and linkage • Fluid flow • Rupture dynamics • Fault zone strength

If we know slip rate du/dt And we assume u(x) per event We can get recurrence time uave or umax per event should also imply length and M Burbank and Anderson

Thatcher, 1990 So what do these earthquakes look like along the fault over time? Quasi-static earthquake simulator using elastic dislocations with stress boundary conditions and simple friction produces synthetic earthquake catalogue (900,000 events > 5km2 over 540kyr; cumulative stress history) Zielke and Arrowsmith, 2008; Zielke, 2009
RW vs. Freq. Bimodal Seismicity Distribution • Down-dip rupture width RW of small EQs is limited by zp • Rupture of strength barrier zp causes activation of full seismic zone • Abrupt increase in RW and RA at transition from small to large EQs • Abrupt increase in Magnitude Small vs. Large EQ Mag. vs. Freq.
Implies bimodal M, RA, and slip at surface->controlling influence of event on landscape Moderate M, partial rupture, Gutenberg-Richter Large M, full rupture, Characteristic Zielke and Arrowsmith, 2008
