Bend Faulting at the Edge of a Flat Slab: The 2017 Mw7.1 Puebla‐Morelos, Mexico Earthquake
Abstract We present results of a slip model from joint inversion of strong motion and static Global Positioning System data for the Mw7.1 Puebla‐Morelos earthquake. We find that the earthquake nucleates at the bottom of the oceanic crust or within the oceanic mantle with most of the moment release o...
