英文摘要 | On July 22, 2020, an earthquake with M(w)7.8 occurred in the southern part of Alaska Peninsula, USA. In this paper, the focal mechanism and rupture process of this earthquake are inversed with the far-field seismic waveform records and coseismic displacement data of near-field GPS stations. The results show that the Alaskan earthquake is a thrust type earthquake with a focal depth of 23km, a fault dip of about 17 degrees, and a maximum coseismic displacement of 914cm on the fracture surface. The seismic moment of the earthquake is 6. 94X 10(20) N.m and the magnitude is M(w)7.8. In addition, the rupture is not simply symmetrically distributed around the source. The rupture direction and aftershock distribution of the earthquake generally show a SW extension trend. According to the calculation results of plate convergence rate and fault locking ratio, the eastern segment of Shumagin seismic gap is capable of M8 earthquake. In terms of recurrence period, there are different intervals between the western and eastern segments of Shumagin, and they may be in different seismic periods. |
