This research builds on previously-developed methods of analyzing Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) footage to examine actions taken during the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake at Wellington International Airport, Aotearoa New Zealand...

... the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake in New Zealand, we undertook such a near‐real‐time modeling campaign in an attempt to pinpoint the location of landslides and identify the locations where roads and rivers had been blocked. The model combined an empirical analysis of landslide hazard (based on previously...

.... Rengers; D. Rhoades; B. Rosser; D. Strong; C. Singeisen; M. Villeneuve Abstract The 14 November 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake generated more than 10,000 landslides over a total area of about 10 , 000 km 2 , with the majority concentrated in a smaller area of about 3600 km 2 . The largest landslide...

...Olivia Leigh Walbert; Eric Andreas Hetland ABSTRACT We use a Bayesian Markov chain Monte Carlo estimation strategy to estimate the state of pre‐earthquake stress from eight published coseismic slip models (CSMs) of the 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura, New Zealand, earthquake. Our estimation relies...

... November 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake, and many have been documented in detail, providing an opportunity to understand the factors controlling multifault ruptures, including the role of the subduction interface. We present a summary of the surface ruptures, as well as previous knowledge including...

... Papatea fault and nearby structures and uplift/translation of the Papatea block are two of the exceptional components of the 14 November 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake. The dual‐stranded Papatea fault, comprising main (sinistral reverse) and western (dip‐slip) strands, ruptured onshore and offshore from...

... magnitudes ( M L ) of 4.00–6.26, which occurred as part of the Kaikōura earthquake sequence from 13 November 2016 to 1 March 2017. Most of the earthquakes occurred in the shallow crust with focal depths ( d ) ≤ 30    km , and most recordings were obtained at stations with hypocentral...

...Jack N. Williams; David J. A. Barrell; Mark W. Stirling; Katrina M. Sauer; Grace C. Duke; Ken X. Hao Abstract The Hundalee fault is one of at least 20 faults that ruptured during the 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake in the northeast of the South Island of New Zealand. Here, we document a 12‐km...

...Zhigang Peng; Bill Fry; Kevin Chao; Dongdong Yao; Xiaofeng Meng; Art Jolly Abstract We conduct a systematic search for remotely triggered seismicity in New Zealand following the 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake. We first examine seismicity rates obtained from the GeoNet catalog one month before...

...Yu Morishita; Tomokazu Kobayashi; Satoshi Fujiwara; Hiroshi Yarai Abstract The 2016 Kaikōura earthquake is one of the most complex earthquakes recorded by modern observation techniques. A comprehensive understanding of this event has not yet been achieved despite analysis of observed data...

... detail of earthquake processes, fault geometries and kinematics, and regional tectonics. Lidar and InSAR data have been particularly useful for documenting the November 2016 M w  7.8 Kaikōura earthquake, which ruptured an array of faults within the New Zealand plate boundary zone in the northern...

...Yi‐Ying Wen; Kuo‐Fong Ma; Bill Fry Abstract We investigate the complex rupture properties of the 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake by jointly inverting teleseismic body‐wave and regional Global Positioning System (GPS) coseismic deformation data within a multifault model. We validate our results...

...Brendan W. Crowell; Diego Melgar; Jianghui Geng Abstract The 2016 M w 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake is one of the most complex earthquakes in recent history, rupturing across many disparate faults with varying faulting styles.
