Sentence examples for thrust event from inspiring English sources

The exception is the Mw 7.2 thrust event (50 70 km deep) that occurred as the first event of the doublet.

The 2011 Mw 7.1 Araucania earthquake consisted of two events: a Mw 6.8 thrust event followed 12 s later by a Mw 6.7 event with a normal faulting mechanism and 30 km shallower (Hicks and Rietbrock 2015).

An Mw 7.2 thrust event first ruptured at depths of 50 70 km, followed by an Mw 7.1 7.2 normal-faulting event about 27 km to the SSW at depths of 10 30 km [31].

The events include the Mw = 7.6 outer trench slope aftershock, several shallow coastal and offshore 5.4 ≤ Mw ≤ 5.8 normal events, the thrust event near Nagano, and the remote strike-slip events in the Japan Sea and at the base of Mt. Fuji (Fig. 2).

However, some great extensional faulting events have happened in the outer trench slope environment with no proximate large thrust event, such as the 1977 Sumba (Mw 8.4) (Lynnes and Lay, 1988) and 2009 Samoa (Mw 8.1) (Lay et al, 2010) earthquakes which occurred seaward of what appear to be seismically weakly-coupled subduction zones.

Angster et al. (2015) claimed that no surface rupture along the trace of the HFT, the pattern of InSAR interferograms, focal mechanism and aftershock distribution of the event indicated that it was a low-angle thrust event on the MHT and the southern tip of the rupture ended below the mountain over 30 km north of the Gangetic plain.

In this frame, we will handle the strike-slip and thrust events separately.

"A lot of potentially smaller thrust events in the L.A. basin could act as hidden triggers," he says.

The focal mechanism retrieved from the events in Yalova–Hersek area is portrayed in Fig. 13, where strike-slip and thrust events are dominating.

Depth variation of differences in seismic magnitude differentials mb−Mw for interplate thrust events on the megathrusts along the Kuril, Sumba, Aleutians and Peru subduction zones.

Interplate thrust events were identified based on the location, depth and gCMT focal mechanisms, and mb−Mw differences were corrected in the same fashion.
