Prevalence of viscoelastic relaxation after the 2011 Tohoku-oki earthquake : Nature
After a large subduction earthquake, crustal deformation continues to occur, with a complex pattern of evolution. This postseismic deformation is due primarily to viscoelastic relaxation of stresses induced by the earthquake rupture and continuing...
