| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The numerical simulation was carried out to evaluate the accuracy of a source inversion with crustal displacement data, and to reveal that the accuracy depends on the distances between the locations of the fault and the observation point. We developed a new inversion method to estimate a fault model of seismic sources from geodetic data, using Akaike’s Bayesian Information Criterion. The inversion method provides not only the distributions of fault slip, optimal hyper-parameters, but also strike and dip of a fault by minimizing ABIC. The estimated strike and dip agree well with the true values of them through the numerical experiments. The estimated distributions of fault slip were compared with the target distributions and show generally good agreement with them even if noise is contaminated.
