The Mw 8.0 2003 Tokachi-oki earthquake offshore Hokkaido is the largest earthquake observed to date by a dense GPS network (GEONET). These GPS data are important both for resolving the geodetic signature of the earthquake itself and studies of postseismic deformation. Because GPS positions are generally estimated by averaging 24 hours of observations, it can be difficult to separate the...
The aseismic slow slip event of 2001–2002 in Guerrero, Mexico, with an equivalent magnitude MW ~ 7.5, is the largest silent earthquake (SQ) among many recently recorded by GPS in different subduction zones (i.e. Japan, Alaska, Cascadia, New Zealand). The sub-horizontal and shallow plate interface in Central Mexico is responsible for specific conditions for the ~100 km long extended transient zone...
