Conceptual model of the difference in the variability of the shear strength before and after the Kobe earthquake. (a) Ideal synthetic self-affine profiles with a prescribed Hurst exponent of -0.2, analogous to the stress field of the Kobe earthquake (shown in Fig. 5) without smoothing inherent to the inversion procedure. The difference between the synthetic initial and final stresses shows a decrease of the roughness amplitude at all scales, preserving the relative importance between large and small scale fluctuations. Persistent spatial fluctuations at large scale are preserved. The stress-drop synthetic profile is also self-affine with an identical negative scaling exponent. At the right, the Fourier power spectra of each profile shows a similar pattern as observed for the Kobe earthquake stress maps (displayed in Fig. 5). (b) Same graph as in (a) except that the ideal synthetic self-affine profiles have been smoothed as observed on seismological slip inversions. Large scale fluctuations are not affected by the smoothing procedure. (c) Difference in the pre-factors of the respective Fourier spectra is directly related to slight variations in fault morphology caused by the rupture event. Two examples of synthetic rough profiles with a prescribed Hurst exponent of 0.8 (analogous to that sampled on natural fault surfaces). The color version of this figure is available only in the electronic edition.
