Two‐stage composite megathrust rupture of the 2015 Mw8.4 Illapel, Chile, earthquake identified by spectral‐element inversion of teleseismic waves
Abstract The Mw8.4 Illapel earthquake occurred on 16 September was the largest global event in 2015. This earthquake was not unexpected because the hypocenter was located in a seismic gap of the Peru‐Chile subduction zone. However, the source model derived from 3‐D spectral‐element inversion of tele...
