| Summary: | Abstract The paper presents the results of waveform inversion of the Mw 6.8 August 4 (5), 2000 Uglegorsk earthquake (Sakhalin Island, Russia). The detailed rupture process of the 2000 Uglegorsk earthquake was simulated using the waveform inversion method. The average parameters were calculated for both nodal planes. Waveform inversion was carried out on the basis of Global Seismographic Network (GSN) data. Only P-waves from BHZ channels of all stations from the GSN were used. The simulated source parameters included a double-couple source, the scalar seismic moment, the source time function, and the slip directions. The performed studies made it possible to investigate the features of the rupture development and the amplitude of displacements along the east and west-dipping nodal planes of the August 4 (5), 2000 Uglegorsk earthquake. The obtained P-slip model for the 2000 Uglegorsk earthquake source area is in good agreement with the surface manifestations of the rupture according to the field geology data and the results of geodetic inversion. |
