Codes and data for: Spatial Relationships between Coseismic Slip, Aseismic Afterslip, and On-fault Aftershock Density in Continental Earthquakes

This code is an accompanyment to the paper: Spatial Relationships between Coseismic Slip, Aseismic Afterslip, and On-fault Aftershock Density in Continental Earthquakes. The code serves to allow reproduction of figures in the paper, and the repository also serves as a store for the data analysed. Readers are welcome to edit/adapt/incorporate the code freely, but please cite our paper. Use of, or reference to, any of the datasets included here should also be accompanied by a reference to the original source (i.e. the work by the original authors), which can be found in our paper.

The code should be run sequentially and is not unbreakable, please take care. The methods outlined in the paper give a guide to the workflow, please contact me should you have additional questions.

DATA (also referenced in the accompanying paper):

• Seismic catalogs are provided pre-processed in the folder 'catalogs'. These originate from:
  • The Northern California Earthquake Catalog (NCEC) (Waldhauser & Schaff, 2008; Waldhauser, 2009)
  • The California Integrated catalog by the Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) (SCEDC, 2013)
  • The International Seismological Centre Bulletin (ISC)
• Slip models (coseismic slip and afterslip) are provided in the folder 'SlipModels':
  • Many of these are availible freely online and are referenced in the accompanying paper
  • Additional coseismic slip models are availible from the SRCMOD database (Mai & Thingbaijam, 2014)
  • Chris Rollins (the El Mayor Cucapah afterslip paper) and Daniele Cheloni (the L'Aquila afterslip paper) were kind enough to allow me to include their models in this repository.

Again, we thank the following individuals who provided, or helped find, coseismic and afterslip models: Roland B ̈urgmann, Daniele Cheloni, Nicola D’Agostino, Semih Ergintav, Wangpeng Feng, Elizabeth Hearn, Junle Jiang, Fred Pollitz, Chris Rollins, Elisa Trasatti, Kang Wang, Sam Wimpenny, and Han Yue.
