Estimation of the Wenchuan Earthquake Rupture Sequence Utilizing Teleseismic Records and Coseismic Displacements

Figure 9

(a) The slip distribution with coseismic displacements constraints of rupture process 2. (b) Moment rate function. (c) Rupture process snapshots of Wenchuan earthquake with 4 s interval. (d) The comparison of seven-month aftershock distribution (solid circles) and the projection of the spatial-slip distribution of BCF. The information of aftershocks is from the China earthquake network center (CENC). The red star is the epicenter, and the brown stars are the epicenter of seven aftershocks with magnitude greater than 6.0 [10].
