英文摘要: The Mw 6.5 Jiuzhaigou earthquake occurred on 8 August 2017 36 km west-southwest of Yongle, Sichuan, China. We use both ascending and descending Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data from Sentinel-1 and coseismic offsets of four Global Positioning System sites to obtain the coseismic surface deformation field and invert for the fault geometry and slip distribution. Most slip of the left-lateral strike-slip earthquake occurred in the 3–10 km depth interval with a maximum slip of about 1 m and a large shallow slip deficit (SSD). An eight-month InSAR time-series analysis documents a lack of resolvable postseismic deformation, and inversions for the distribution of postseismic slip demonstrate the lack of shallow afterslip. We argue that the observations of a pronounced SSD and no early afterslip of the Jiuzhaigou earthquake are indicative of an immature fault and that all incipient young strike-slip faults likely feature a SSD. We would expect a complex rupture geometry with distributed coseismic failure in the uppermost part of the brittle crust during the fault-zone development. As faults mature, they straighten out, develop a localized fault-zone core, and the SSD diminishes. By calculating the static Coulomb stress change and nine-year viscoelastic stress change caused by the Wenchuan earthquake, we also show that the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake did not significantly affect the time of occurrence of the 2017 Jiuzhaigou earthquake. © Seismological Society of America.
