Electronic Supplement to
Displacement and Geometrical Characteristics of Earthquake Surface Ruptures: Issues and Implications for Seismic Hazard Analysis and the Process of Earthquake Rupture

by S. G. Wesnousky

The supplement is divided into four sections:

Section 1: Compilation of maps and earthquake slip distributions for earthquakes listed in Table 1 of the manuscript.

Section 2: Digitized slip distributions of earthquakes displayed in Section 1 and listed in Table 1.

Section 3: Curve fits to digitized slip distributions in same format as illustrated in Figure 9 of the manuscript.

Section 4: Notes and references for Table 1 and Table 2 of the manuscript.

A brief explanation is provided at the beginning of each section.

Section 1: Compilation of maps and earthquake slip distributions for earthquakes listed in Table 1.

The maps and slip distributions of the earthquakes listed in Table 1 of the manuscript are provided for download. Eachis annotated in the same manner as shown and described in the captions of Figure 1a and 1b of the manuscript. The distance scale and map scale are set to be the same in the respective plots. The sources of information are referenced in Table 1. Fault maps and slip distributions are presented by geologists in varying formats and styles and, as well, the resolution, type of measurement (e.g. scarp height or vertical separation or slip) and density of slip measurements vary between earthquakes. The characteristics of the individual maps and slip distributions will thus differ because I have attempted to preserve the original presentation when redrafting the data. In some cases I have not explained particular symbols used in the original manuscripts and it may be necessary to refer to the original papers for explanation of particular symbols used by the authors that originally drafted the maps and slip distributions. The intent is to allow the reader to quickly assess the relative detail of the original slip distributions and observe the particular assignments of discontinuity locations and sizes used in development of various plots in the manuscript. The reader interested in presentation of the slip distributions in a systematic and singular format should refer to plots of the digitized slip curves presented in Section 2. Sources of information are referenced in Table 1 which is repeated below in Section 4 for convenience.

Section 2: Digitized surface slip distributions.

The digitization and plots of the digitization for each of the earthquake slip distributions are provided in the accompanying files. There are two files for each earthquake. The first contains plot(s) of the respective digitized slip distribution(s) and is in pdf format. The second contains the digitized data in text/ascii format. The data is comma-delimited and thus readily imported into various plotting or analysis software. The large open circles in the plots are the points digitized along the slip distribution curves. Values interpolated between those points are interpolated values. A given file may contain more than one slip distribution curve if for example the earthquake trace is composed of distinct segments. The user is advised to first look at the respective plot files to determine how many slip digitization curves are in the respective files. Generally, the digitized files contain four columns of data. The first two columns are generally the interpolated values of the slip distribution (distance along strike and offset) and the next two columns are the actual digitized values. Headers for each column are provided for clarity.

Section 3: Curve fits to digitized slip distributions.

Digitized surface slip distributions of earthquakes listed in Table 1 and curve-fits to those distributions are arranged in reverse chronological order in the accompanying file. The name and date of each earthquake are labeled on vertical axis of each plot. Type of curve-fit is labeled and discussed in main text and caption to Figure 9 of main text. Position of epicenter with respect to fault strike is labeled when available and indicated by downward pointing arrow. Integration of the digitized values of surface slip allows definition of a point where half the cumulative slip falls on either side. That value is defined for each slip distribution (value in circle) by the distance in km to nearest fault endpoint. Values in parentheses are distances in km of nearest fault endpoint of peak of the asymmetric sine and ellipse curves.

Notes for Table 1.

a.

Value in parentheses is that reported in text of original reference. Other is maximum of digitized slip curve as provided in original reference. Value of width taken from average depth of microseismicity along fault observed in Hill et al. (1990). Rigidity of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed. Digitized slip curve value used in plots and regressions. Epicenter assumed to be at northern end of trace based on Sieh (1978).

b. Digitized slip curve taken from (3) and is scarp height and for this reason may overestimate actual displacement. Max Suter (pers. comm.) suggests the rupture is significantly longer but chose not to share his observations at this time. Moment calculated assuming 60° dip. Rigidity and fault depth assumed same as used for 1954 Fairview Peak earthquake.
c. Moment calculated from vector sum of left-lateral and vertical slip measurements. Fault depth assumed same as average base (15 km) of seismogenic layer (e.g., Wesnousky et al., 1982). Rigidity assumed same as used for 1943 Tottori earthquake. Epicenter taken from Research Group for Active Faults (1991).
d. Total length measured along average strike from ends of Obanai and Senya fault segments . Vertical component of slip provided in original surface slip distribution. Values in brackets are corrected for dip and used when calculating moment and making plots and regressions. Individual segment values are original values from slip distribution and not corrected for dip. Values of maximum and average slip for entire trace are obtained after summing slip of main and conjugate traces. Dip of Senya fault is 45-70° from field observation (Matsuda et al., 1980). Thatcher et al. (1980) use rigidity of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 in geodetic analysis of event. Fault depth assumed same as average base (15 km) of seismogenic layer (e.g. Takagi et al., 1977; Wesnousky et al., 1982). Epicenter taken from Research Group for Active Faults (1991).
e. Fault dip ‘well-defined’ at 44°±8° (Doser, 1988). Vertical component of slip provided in original surface slip distribution. Values in brackets are corrected for dip and used when calculating moment. Individual segment values are original values from slip distribution and not corrected for dip. Values of fault width assumed same as used for 1954 Fairview Peak earthquake. Value of rigidity is back calculated from parameters of moment, fault width, and displacement given to the event by (Doser, 1988).
f. Slip distribution curve is modified by author to more closely approximate distribution of measurements. Original curve of Matsuda (1972) appears to consistently be greater than maximum values of measurement. Only horizontal values of slip used here because they are dominant and vertical components alternate along fault strike and likely reflect in large part the horizontal displacement. Epicenter for event is that reported by Nakata et al. (1998). Fault depth (12 km) is depth of aftershock distribution for nearby 1974 Izu-Oki earthquake and also same as elastic model that gives best fit to displacements measured with triangulation data  in 1930 (Abe, 1978). Rigidity value assumed similar to that used in geodetic moment determination of Abe (1978). Epicenter taken from Research Group for Active Faults (1991).
g. Fault depth 12.5 and shear modulus (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault. Source cites McKenzie (1972) for focal mechanism and presumably epicenter, and incorporates measurements of Pamir and Ketin (1941) and Kocyigit (1989; 1990) into his slip distribution curve.  Epicenter taken from Barka (1996) who cites Dewey (1976).
h. Rigidity and fault depth values are assumed same as used for 1979 Imperial Valley earthquake. Best-fitting geodetic analysis confines slip to upper 13 km of crust (Reilinger, 1984; Doser and Kanamori, 1987). Subdivision of segments ‘north’ and ‘south’ reflects measures to north and south of All American Canal, respectively, where there is abrupt change in displacement values in apparent absence of any structural discontinuity along fault trace. Epicenter taken from maps of Trifunac (1972) and also Anderson and Bodin (1987).
i. Fault depth 12.5 and shear modulus (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault. Slip distribution also incorporates measurements of (Pamir and Aykol, 1943). Epicenter is taken from [Stein et al. (1997). Uncertainty in epicenter location is comparable to rupture length (Dewey, 1976).
j. Fault depth 12.5 and shear modulus (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault. Slip distribution also incorporates measurements of (Blumenthal, 1945a; Blumenthal, 1945b; Ketin, 1969; Ando, 1974b; Ozturk, 1980). Epicenter is taken from [Stein et al. (1997) and he cites relocated ISC earthquakes by Engdahl et al (1998).
k. Mean and max slip values are taken from vector sum of displacement components along trace. Slip distribution plot shows interpolated values used by author (thick dashed lines) and those originally interpreted (thin dashed lines) by source. Rigidity assumed on basis of Kanamori’s (1973) seismological analysis (see Table 2). Fault depth assumed same as average base (15km) of seismogenic layer  (e.g., Wesnousky et al., 1982).
l. Fault depth 12.5 and shear modulus (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault. Slip distribution includes new measures of slip and compilations of older observations (Tasman, 1944; Ketin, 1948; Allen, 1969; Ketin, 1969; Ambraseys, 1970). Epicenter is taken from [Stein et al. (1997) and he cites relocated ISC earthquakes by Engdahl et al. (1998).
m. Fault dip (30°) and depth (8km) are from seismological analysis of Kikuchi et al. (2003). Value of rigidity assumed to same as used in that same analysis (see Table 2). Assumption is made that lateral values of slip are apparent. Calculations include only measures of vertical slip.
n. Moment value is sum of all segments (SMo). Average displacement calculated as SMo/(3x10^11dyne/cm^2)(15km/sin(60))(62km). Fault depth (15km) and dip (60°) based on long-period body-wave analysis of Doser (1986). Geodetic fault models of Hodgkinson et al. (1996) suggest most slip occurred at depths shallower than 8 km. Value of rigidity taken to be same as used by Hodgkinson et al. (1996).  Epicenter taken from Doser (1986).
s. Slip distribution constructed by author from original measurements of displacement on Plate 2 of Witkind (1964). Range of epicenter estimates shown by oval in slip distribution plot encompasses estimates of Doser (1985) and Ryall (1962). Average value of rigidity is that used by Barrientos et al. (1987) in their geodetic analysis of event. Depth extent of faulting (15 km) in concert with focal depth determination and geodetic modeling of source (Doser, 1985; Barrientos et al., 1987). Average dip (50°) assumed based on long-period body wave analysis of Doser (1985). Epicenter reflects range of values from Doser and Smith (1985) and  Ryall (1962).
t. Original slip distribution gives measures of vertical separation. Values in square brackets are corrected for fault dip (sum of vertical separations / sin(60°). Geologic moment calculated assuming 60° dipping fault and reflect vector sum of displacements on all traces. Fault depth assumed to be 12 km based on hypocentral depth calculation of Doser (1986). The lesser value as compared to the Fairview Peak earthquake is consistent with geodetic modeling of Hodgkinson et al. (1996) that suggests slip was confined to shallower depths than Fairview Peak. Value of rigidity taken to be same as used by Hodgkinson et al. (1996). Epicenter assumed to be at south end of rupture and triggered by 1954 Fairview Peak but in reality simply assumed.
u. Length and moment calculation for main fault trace between about Kanlicay and Guney. The single reported measure near Sapanca is not included. Epicenter adapted from Stein et al. (1997). Value of rigidity is derived from average velocity-density crustal model used by Pinar et al (1996) to compute Green’s functions. Analysis of teleseismic body waves place most moment release at 10 km. Depth extend assumed 12 km on that basis. Epicenter is taken from Stein et al. (1997) and he cites relocated ISC earthquakes by Engdahl et al. (1998).
v. Central and south strands recorded afterslip. Values in this table also reflect measurements in April and June after earthquake. Depth extent of aftershocks limited to 12 km (Hamilton, 1972). Value of rigidity assumed similar to that used at source depth in analyses determining seismic moment (see Table 2). Epicenter taken from Allen and Nordquist (1972).
w. Aftershocks and geodetic models indicate slip limited to upper 13 km of crust (Reilinger, 1984; Doser and Kanamori, 1986). Rigidity of 2.53x10^11dyne/cm^2 based on velocity density model of Hartzell and Heaton (1983). See notes for Table 2. Range of surface displacement values is for measurements taken 4 days and 160 days after event. Values for 160 days used in plots.
x. Net surface displacements taken from Table 3 of source. Dip and depth taken from teleseismic body-wave inversion of Fredrich et al. (1988). Depth is twice centroid depth. Rigidity is derived from velocity-density structure at source used by Fredrich et al. (1988).
y. Original slip distribution gives measures of throw (vertical). Values given reflect vertical throw, except for those in square brackets which are corrected for dip. Fault dip and depth are from Doser and Smith (1985) and Richins et al. (1987). Value of rigidity is average of values that have been used in calculating seismic moment from waveforms (see Table 2). Note segments in digitized slip curve are separated by decay in displacement to 0 and discontinuities and bends in fault strike. Segments 1 and 2 show distinct patches of relatively increased slip with long ‘tails’ of lesser slip. Values in parenthesis are those for the ‘slip patch’ and ‘tails’. 1983 Borah Peak epicenter from Richins et al. (1987).
z. Original slip distribution gives measures of throw (vertical). Values in square brackets are corrected for fault dip. Dip and depth of fault plane taken to equal 35° and 3 km, respectively, based on centroid moment determination of Fredrich et al. (1988). Rigidity assumed on basis of velocity-density structure at source given by Fredrich et al. (1988). Length of slip distribution curve measured along curved trace. Separate values are for smoothed (s) and unsmoothed slip distribution curves. Unsmoothed is used in plots. Epicenter from Fredrich et al. (1988) and/or Machette et al. (1993)
aa.

Results provided for slip after 1 day and final displacement predicted to power-law fit to observed decay of after-slip with time. Aftershocks limited to upper 12 km of crust (Magistrale et al., 1989). Rigidity computed from velocity-density structure used by Frankel and Wennerberg (1989). Plots use final displacement value. Epicenter taken from Sharp et al. (1989).

ab. Dip and depth of faulting from aftershock and waveform analysis of Choy and Bowman (1990). Rigidity (3.3) is value used in that same analysis (George Choy, USGS, pers. comm.). Vertical component of slip provided in original surface slip distribution. Values in brackets are corrected for dip and used when calculating moment. Individual segment values are original values from slip distribution and not corrected for dip. Epicenter taken from Choy and Bowman (1990).
ac. Source provides a cumulative slip distribution which is sum of contributions of individual strands composing rupture. Assessment of characteristics of individual traces required differencing the contributions of individual traces. Aftershock distribution extends to 15km depth (Sieh et al., 1993). Rigidity assumed same as generally used in seismological analyses of event. Epicenter taken from Sieh et al. (1993).
ad. Displacement values are the vector sum of the original slip distributions which provide vertical and lateral components of slip separately. Values in brackets take into account fault dip. Geologic moment calculated assuming fault dips at 70°. Aftershocks mostly confined to upper 20 km of crust (Lin, 2001). Rigidity reflects average of velocity-density structures used in seismological analyses of event (see Table 2). Epicenter taken from Lin et al. (2002).
ae. Fault depth 12.5 and shear modulus (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault. Length of slip and, hence, geologic estimate of Mo is minimum because trace is submerged beneath Marmara sea at west end. Total length is probably about 145 km. Similarly, characteristics of Golcuk and Herzek sections of the fault are incomplete and not considered separately. Depth of aftershocks generally limited to upper 15 km of crust (Ergin et al., 1999). Epicenter taken from Akyuz et al. (2002) but note fault extends offshore which is not reflected in surface distribution plot.
af. Displacement values are vector sum of vertical and horizontal slip. Values of rigidity and fault depth kept same as used for events on eastern Anatolian fault. Thus, fault depth 12.5 and rigidity (3.2) are those used by Stein et al. (1997) in modeling of stress transfer along Anatolian fault, although aftershocks of the earthquake were generally limited to above 17 km (Milkereit et al., 1999; Umutlu et al., 2004). Epicenter taken from Akyuz et al. (2002).
ag. Fault dip from teleseismic analysis (Berberian et al., 2001) and fault depth is twice the centroid moment depth  and equal to depth of found with INSAR modeling of source by same authors. Original slip distribution gives values of vertical and lateral components of slip separately. Value of slip is for total fault slip including effect of dip (sqrt((vertical/sin(54))2+(strike slip)2).
ah. Fault width of 10 km assumed based on range of aftershock depths reported by (Eberhart-Phillips et al., 2003). Rigidity (3.2) assumed between that used by Ozacar and Beck (2004) and Frankel (2004)(see Table 2).
ai. Original slip distribution provides measures of vertical separation and horizontal slip separately. Slip values are vector sums of two components and that in brackets is corrected for fault dip (e.g. slip/sin(dip)). Values of dip (69°) on basis of teleseismic analysis by Berberian et al. (2001). Fault depth of 15 km assumed. Centroid moment solution depths reported by Berberian et al. (2001) are 15 to 18 km but he notes ‘depths are not well resolved’. Same authors note surface slip appears small for length of fault and suggest most slip concentrated at depth.
aj. Mechanism and slip calculated same as for 1998 Fandoqa earthquake. Each occurred on same fault. Exception to this is that dip and fault depth assumed to be 15km based on body-wave analysis of Berberian (2001)(see Table 2).
ak. Values reflect vector sum of vertical and horizontal slip. Fault width of 10 km assumed based on range of aftershock depths reported by Eberhart-Phillips et al. (2003). al. Ozacar and Beck (2004) note regional seismicity limited to about 15 km depth. Rigidity (3.2) assumed between that used by Ozacar and Beck (2004) and Frankel (2004)(see Table 2). Epicenter taken from Haeussler et al (2005).
al. Digitized slip distribution is that of Xu et al. (2002) modified in central portion where reexamined by Klinger et al. (2005). Fault trace is taken from Klinger et al. (2005). Depth of rupture assumed to be same as depth of background seismicity (15) as stated by Ozacar and Beck (2004). Rigidity (3) is that used by Ozacar and Beck (2004) (Arda Ozacar, Dept. of Geological Sciences, University of Arizona, pers. comm.). Epicenter taken from Klinger et al. (2006).
am. Width based on depth extent of aftershocks (Shibutani, 1991; Yoshida and Abe, 1992) and value of rigidity of 3.5 follows assumption of (Velasco et al., 1996). Epicenter taken from map of Nakata (1990). Epicenter taken from Klinger et al. (2006).
an. Depth of aftershocks extends to and is limited to above 15 km (Hauksson et al., 2002). Rigidity value is approximate average value from zero to 15 km (Jones and Helmberger, 1998; see figure 10 in Simons et al., 2002). Two values of average and max offset are given. First includes only offsets on main trace. Second also includes contribution from secondary traces. Differences do not change estimates of geologic moment or potency at level of significance listed in table. Epicenter as reported in Treiman et al. (2002).
ao. Slip distribution describes vertical component of displacement. Range of dip values reported for fault range from 55°-71°. Values of offset in brackets are corrected for dip (offset/sin(60°)). Moment is calculated with corrected values of slip. Depth of aftershocks is limited to upper 10 km (Robinson, 1989). Rigidity of 2.6x10^11dyne/cm^2 is computed from average velocity-density structure (Ozacar and Beck, 2004)in upper 15 km of crust (see Table 1 of Anderson and Webb, 1989).
ap. Slip distribution is for total slip. Dip of 45° assumed on basis of waveform and focal mechanism analysis. Rigidity of 3.4x10^11dyne/cm^2 is average of values explicitly stated in Table 2. Depth extent of faulting assumed from depth of aftershocks and bodywave form analyses cited.
aq. Slip profile is for vertical component. Aftershock analyses indicate depth of seismicity reaches 12 km. Focal mechanism and waveform modeling indicate average dip of 50°, leading to ~15 km fault plane width. Only displacement from fault offset at surface considered, not folding component.

Notes for Table 2

be. Rigidity not cited in original text of source. Value used was 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Diane Doser, University of Texas, El Paso, pers. comm).
bh. Rigidity for moment estimates (2.3 and 4.8) not cited in original texts of sources (Doser and Kanamori, 1987; Doser, 1990). Value used was 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Diane Doser, University of Texas, El Paso, pers. comm.]. The value of rigidity used in Thatcher and Hanks’ (1973) estimate of body-wave moment  (3.0) is incorporated into expression for shear displacement spectra but not explicitly stated in text. Value of 3.0 for rigidity is assumed. Trifunac and Brune’s (1970) do not state the value of rigidity used in estimate of body-wave moment (4.4). They used value of rigidity = 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 when using geologic data to compute moment. Assumed here that same value was used in their estimate of seismic moment. The geodetic moment (8.4) arises from Doser and Kanamori’s (1987) interpretation of Reilinger’s (1984) geodetic model. The interpretation does not state value of rigidity used. Value of 3.3 is assumed here.
bk. Value of rigidity used in estimate of body-wave moment (3.6) not explicitly stated. Value of rigidity 3.35x10^11 dyn/cm^2  is back calculated from Kanamori’s (1973) statement of source dimensions and moment estimate (m=Mo/LWD).
bm. Value of rigidity not explicitly stated in text of Kikuchi et al. (2003). It is inferred to equal 3.0x10^11 dyn//cm^2 from their statement of source dimensions (20km x 15km), average coseismic slip (1.1m), and moment (1.0).  Ando (1974a) uses rigidity 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2 to calculate seismic moment (0.87) from geodetic model.  Kakehi and Iwata (1992) report seismic moment (1.0), source dimensions (12km x 11km), and average slip (3m) from which it is calculated here that they used average rigidity of 2.5 x 10^11  dyn/cm^2.
br. Rigidity for moment estimate (5.5) not cited in original text of source (Doser, 1985). Value used was 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Diane Doser, University of Texas, El Paso, pers. comm.].  Hodgkinson et al. (1996) use a value of rigidity 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2 too calculate geodetic moment from model fault parameters.
bs. Rigidity for moment estimates (10 and 13) not cited in original texts of sources (Doser, 1985; Doser and Kanamori, 1987). Values used were 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Diane Doser, University of Texas, El Paso, pers. comm.]. Barrientos et al. (1987) explicitly state rigidity of 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2 used in calculation of geodetic moment.
bt. Value of rigidity used in calculation of body wave moment (1.0) by Doser (1986) not provided. Assumed here to be 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2. Hodgkinson et al. (1996) use a value of rigidity 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2 too calculate geodetic moment from model fault parameters.
bu. Hanks and Wyss (1972) do not state value of rigidity used in moment (8.8) calculation but assume 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 when computing moment from field data. Assumed here same value used in estimate of seismic moment. Value or rigidity (2.4) calculated from velocity-density structure used by Pinar et al., (1996) to calculate body-wave moment (11).  The body-wave moment (15) of Stewart and Kanamori (1982) is not accompanied by information bearing on value of rigidity used. Here assumed to equal 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2. 
bv. Hanks and Wyss (1972) do not state value of rigidity used in moment (0.9): 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed for this analysis. Burdick and Mellman (1976) report use of rigidity 3.4x10^11 dyn/cm^2 in estimate of body wave moment (1.1). Butler (1983) provides no estimate of velocity-density structure or rigidity used in estimate of surface wave moment (1.1): 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed for this analysis. Ebel  and Helmberger’s (1982) body wave moment (0.7) accompanied by velocity-density structure at source from which rigidity calculated to equal 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2. Swanger et al. (1978) do not cite value of rigidity used in body wave moment (1.2) but provide velocity-density at assumed 8 km source depth from which rigidity of 3.8x10^11 dyn/cm^2 listed here is calculated. Vidale et al.(1985) give velocity-density structure at source depth from which rigidity 3.8x10^11 dyn/cm^2 listed here is derived.
bw. Hartzell and Helmberger (1982) state rigidity is  2.5x10^11 dyn/cm^2 when extracting displacement from moment estimate (0.5). Hartzell and Heaton’s (1983) do not state rigidity explicitly in calculation of moment (0.5) but displacements of their model are distributed primarily between 5 and 11 km depth where shear velocity (3.07 km/s) and density (2.67 g/cc) model: rigidity derived from velocity model assumed 2.5x10^11 dyn/cm^2.  The surface wave moment (0.7) of Kanamori and Reagan (1982) is computed assuming point source at 9.75  km and velocity-density model 5.08M reported in Kanamori (1970), implying rigidity 3.9 x10^11 dyn/cm^2 used for source excitation functions (but when estimating slip from moment – they assume rigidity of 3.0 x10^11 dyn/cm^2).
bx. Fredrich et al., (1988) provide velocity- density structure at source used to compute seismic moment (15): 3.2 x10^11 dyn/cm^2.
by. Rigidity used to calculate body wave moment (2.1) not cited in original text of source. Value used was 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Diane Doser, University of Texas, El Paso, pers. comm). Mendoza and Hartzell  (1988) provide velocity-density structure used to calculate synthetics and moment (2.3): average rigidity in source region of maximum slip is  2.5x10^11 dyn/cm^2.  Ward and Barrientos (1986) calculation of moment (2.6) accompanied by use of rigidity of 3.2 x10^11 dyn/cm^2 when calculating average fault slip yielding best fit of geodetic model deformation to that observed.  Inferred that Barrientos et al. (1987) calculate moment (2.9) using rigidity of 3.2 x10^11 dyn/cm^2 : they calculate average fault slip from geodetic moment using this value. Assumed rigidity used in Tanimoto and Kanamori ‘s (1986) surface wave moment (3.5) was 3 x10^11 dyn/cm^2.
bz. Fredrich et al. (1988) provide velocity-density structure at source used to compute seismic moment (.06), from which rigidity is estimated here.
baa. Wald et al. (1990) do not state rigidity explicitly in calculation of seismic moment (0.5). They use average value of rigidity rigidity 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 when deriving estimate of stress drop from seismic moment. The centroid moment tensor solution of Hwang et al. (1990) (0.8) gives depth of event at 4-6 km. Velocity (Vs=2.6 km/s) – density (2.6 g/cm3) structure which equates to rigidity  1.8x10^11 dyn/cm^2.  Velocity-density structure used by Frankel and Wennerberg  (1989) to calculate moment (0.2) implies rigidity of 2.3x10^11 dyn/cm^2.   Value of rigidity 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed for Sipkin’s (1989) estimate of moment (1.0): no explicit statement of rigidity or velocity-density structure.  Rigidity of 2.8x10^11 dyn/cm^2 used in estimate of moment (0.9) by Larsen et al. (1992).  The depth (15km)  and velocity-density model of PREM used in  centroid solution of Dziewonki et al.  (1989)indicates rigidity 4.4x10^11 dyn/cm^2 used in estimate of moment (0.7). Note depth is at boundary of upper and lower crust and method assumes velocity-density structure of lower when final location is at boundary (Goran Ekstrom,  Harvard University, personal comm. 2005).
bai. Anderson and Webb (1989) best estimate of moment (0.4) is for source depth at 8±3 km. Average rigidity at this depth based on velocity-density structure they use is  3.5x10^11 dyn/cm^2.  Rigidity values of Priestly’s (1987) seismic moment estimates from body (0.6) and surface waves (0.9)  appear to use average velocity (Vs = 3.6 km/s) and density  (2.8 g/ cm3) at source equivalent to rigidity of 3.6x10^11 dyn/cm^2.
bab. Rigidity of 3.3x10^11  dyn/cm^2 used in Choy and Bowman’s (1990) estimate of seismic moment (George Choy, USGS, Menlo Park, personal comm., 2005).  Value of moment is sum of 3 distinct subevents. Value of Harvard moment tensor catalog is also sum of 3 subevents over span of 12 hours.
baj. Rigidity used in calculation of synthetics and surface wave moment (39) of Yoshida and Abe (1992) is 7.3x10^11  dyn/cm^2: derived from shear wave velocity (4.7 km/s) – density (3.3 g/cc) at source depth of 30 km (Yasuhiro Yoshida, Meteorological Research Institute, Japan, personal comm., 2005). Rigidity used in calculation of synthetics and body wave moment (36) of Yoshida and Abe (1992) is 4.0x10^11  dyn/cm^2: derived from shear wave velocity (3.74 km/s) – density (2.87 g/cc) at at depth of source (Yasuhiro Yoshida, Meteorological Research Institute, Japan, personal comm., 2005). Velasco et al.  (1996)  use numerous velocity models to find best fitting centroid moment (42) depth between 15 and 45 km: Rigidity at these depths in PREM is 4.4x10^11 dyne/cm^2.
bac. Cohee and Beroza (1994) do not provide or recall exact estimate of rigidity (velocity-density structure) used in estimating body wave moment (7) (Greg Beroza, Stanford University, personal comm., 2005): Value of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed. Dreger (1994) do not provide velocity-density structure nor explicitly state value of rigidity used in estimate of moment (8): Value of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed.  Geodetic moment (9) of Freymueller (1994) not accompanied by explicit notation of value of rigidity used in model. He generally uses 3.0x10^11 dyn/cm^2 (Jeff Freymueller, University of Alaska, personal comm., 2005), which is used here. Johnson et al (1994) do not explicitly state value of rigidity in their use of geodetic data to estimate moment (10): Value of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed.  Wald and Heaton (1994) do not provide information bearing on value of rigidity used in body-wave analysis of moment (7.5): Value of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 assumed.
bad. Zeng and Chen (2001) use average rigidity of 2.1x10^11 dyn/cm^2 in their estimate of seismic moment (29) (Yuehua Zeng, USGS, Golden, Co, personal comm.).  Average value of rigidity of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 is estimated here from velocity structure used by Wu et al (2001) in their joint inversion of GPS and strong-ground motion observations to calculate moment (27): they do not explicitly state average value displacement or rigidity. Average value of rigidity of 3x10^11 dyn/cm^2 is estimated here from velocity structure used by Chi  et al. (2001) to determine moment (41): they do not explicitly state average value displacement or rigidity.
bae. Delouis et al. (2002) use rigidity 3.3x10^11 dyn/ cm^2 in calculating synthetics for inversion for moment (24).  Rigidity of  3.5x10^11  indicated for Sekiguchi and Iwata’s (2002) estimate of seismic moment (1.5) is derived from velocity-density structure at depth of 10 km. Rigidity for Li et al. (2002) moment (22) estimate is that for their velocity-density model structure at 5 to 15km depth. Feigl et al (2002) explicity state rigidity 3.3x10^11 dyn/cm used in seismic moment (18) calculation. Wright et al (2001) use rigidity 3.4x10^11 dyn/cm^2 in calculation of moment (26).
baf. Burgmann et al (2002) use rigidity 3.4x10^11 dyn/cm^2 in estimating moment (5.4). Body-wave analysis of Umutlu, et al. (2004) does not state value of rigidity used in moment calculation (5.0) nor estimate of fault slip.
bag. Berberian et al. (2001) use Vs=3.7 km/s in body-wave analsysis and estimate of seismic moment (0.91). Assume density of 2.6g/ cm3 yields value of 3.3x10^11 dyne/cm^2 listed. Harvard moment (0.95) is constrained at 15km, a layer boundary in PREM model. Assume here rigidity of lower layer (Goran Ekstron, personal communication). Moment (1.2) derived by Berberian et al by SAR assumes 3.4exp11 dyn/cm^2 for rigidity and is average of two solutions for differing boundary conditions.
bah. Berberian et al. (2001) use Vs=3.7 km/s. Assume density of 2.6g/cc yields value of 3.3x10^11 dyne/cm^2 assumed here. Harvard moment (0.95) centroid is 15 km, a layer boundary in PREM model. Assume here rigidity (4.4x10^11 dyn/cm^2. of lower layer (Goran Ekstrom, personal communication).
bai. Moment (71) estimated from INSAR by Lasserre et al. (2005) does not state value of rigidity used in analysis. Value of 3.3x10^11 dyn/ cm^2 assumed. Rigidity of 3 used by Ozacar and Beck (2004) in calculation of seismic moments (46) (Arda Ozacar, Dept. of Geological Sciences, University of Arizona, pers. comm.). Rigidity of 4.4 x10^11 dyne/cm^2 based on PREM and centroid depth for Harvard moment-tensor estimate (59). Rigidity of 3.0x10^11 dyn/ cm^2 used by Antolik, et al.

bak. Rigidity of 3.3x10^11 dyne/cm^2 is that assumed by Abe (1978) when estimating moment (2.7) from geodetic data.
bal. Moment estimate (6.2) of Ji et al. (2002) does not state nor provide velocity-density structure from which averge rigidity may be calculated. The same is true for the moment estimates (6.8 and 5.9) of Kaverina et al. (2002) and Jonsson et al (2002). Rigidity value (3.0) used by Simons et al. (2002) when estimating moment (7.0)  is average of rigidity structure in upper 15 km of crust (Jones and Helmberger, 1998; see figure 10 in Simons et al., 2002).
