Summary: | Shallow earthquake produced by intra-island fault in a populated region could be a catastrophic disaster. Java island is the most populated area specifically in Western Java since there include Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. Cimandiri, Lembang and Baribis fault as main intra-island fault are considered to be responsible due to some shallow historical earthquake in Western Java. However, convergent plate margin such as Java Island generates a broad spectrum of deformation pattern that potentially distracts the deformation due to Baribis fault. In addition, slow relative motion of Sunda block and postseismic deformation due to the 2006 Java tsunami earthquake involve along those fault. Here, we intend to conduct a wavelength decomposition of strain rate calculated from GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) data. We expect to separate long wavelength due to wider-region deformation such as deformation due to the interacting plate and postseismic deformation to obtain Short wavelength due to each fault. We utilized the daily position of recent continuous geodetic data to produce strain rate. Therefore, we could apply a moving average filter to extract a short wavelength component. We obtained long wavelength (-150 to 150 nanostrain/yr) in Western Java shows extension indicating the postseismic effect is still continuous while short wavelength (-75 to 75 nanostrain/yr) varies in space. |
