Abstract

This study employs the Okada Method to analyze the horizontal seismic deformation of the Palu earthquake on September 28, 2018, with a magnitude of 7.5 Mw. Data from InaCORS stations (WATP, CPRE, CPAL, TOBP, and CMLI) strategically positioned near the earthquake epicenter were processed using Gfortran software, and deformation was mapped using GMT software. The analysis focuses on the 100 Days of Year (DOY) period from August 6 to November 28, 2018. Results indicate that during the co-seismic phase (DOY 272), InaCORS stations experienced deformations ranging from 477.130 mm to 7.7852 mm. The magnitude of deformation varied based on station proximity to the epicenter, with the largest displacement observed at TOBP and the smallest at CPRE. Station movements were divergent, with northern stations shifting northward and southern stations moving southward. Subsurface slip reached 1449.23 mm, affecting an area measuring 145 km by 76 km at a depth of 8 km, dip of 65˚, strike of 351˚, and rake of -46˚. These findings contribute valuable insights into the seismic impact on the Earth's crust, aiding seismic hazard assessments in the region

Abstract

This study examines long-term GNSS-derived velocities along southern Java during 2011–2020 to characterize regional crustal deformation. Data from six InaCORS stations operated by BIG were processed using GAMIT/GLOBK to produce time series and estimate horizontal and vertical velocities. Horizontal velocities range from 21.35 mm/yr to 27.54 mm/yr toward the southeast, reflecting strong Eurasian Plate influence. The time series indicates gradual, continuous displacement without significant co-seismic offsets, despite several Mw ~6 earthquakes in the region. Vertical velocities show both uplift and subsidence, ranging from −13.84 mm/yr to 12.61 mm/yr, likely resulting from combined tectonic and non-tectonic processes. Because vertical GNSS measurements generally have higher uncertainty, these results must be interpreted cautiously. Although station motions appear stable, this does not indicate low seismic hazard. Instead, it may suggest ongoing strain accumulation within a seismic gap that could generate a future major earthquake. Overall, these findings enhance understanding of southern Java’s subduction dynamics and support improved earthquake hazard assessment and disaster preparedness.
