摘要
Continuous global positioning system （GPS） in northern Sumatra detected signal of the ongoing physical process of postseismic deformation after the M9.2 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake. We analyze the character- istics of postseismic deformation of the 2004 earthquake based on GPS networks operated by BIG, and the others named AGNeSS, and SuGAr networks located in northern Sumatra. We use a simple analytical logarithmic and exponential function to evaluate the postseismic deforma- tion parameters of the 2004 earthquake. We find that GPS data in northern Sumatra during time periods of 2005-2012 are fit better using the logarithmic function with dog of 104.2 ± 0.1 than using the exponential function. Our result clearly indicates that other physical mechanisms of post- seismic deformation should be taken into account rather than a single physical mechanism of afterslip only.
