Inferences of the history of fault slip are subject to biases induced by unavoidable imperfections in the assumed forward model. For example, we commonly simplify assumed model of crustal properties and the geometry of the fault. The impacts of these choices are rarely investigated or quantified. Here, we explore the impact of uncertainties...

Finite fault slip inversions are constrained by observational data of surface displacement and Green's functions calculated via a forward model of surface deformation. Although observational techniques in space geodesy have improved greatly in recent years, models of earthquake deformation generally do not include realistic Earth structure....

When analyzing the rupture of a large earthquake, geodetic data are often critical. Yet, these data are generally characterized by either a good temporal (continuous GNSS) or a good spatial (InSAR and subpixel image correlation) resolution, but rarely both. As a consequence, many studies analyze the co-seismic rupture with data also including...
