(Russia) </p><p><strong>Scope</strong>: Geodetic techniques including
GPS, InSAR, LIDAR, and others have been used to estimate coseismic
displacements from earthquakes and to model the deformation and stress
accumulation leading to future earthquakes. In this session we will
consider all aspects of geodesy as applied in earthquake studies.
Important questions to be addressed include these: How unique are the
estimates of co-seismic slip distribution? How deep does co-seismic
slip penetrate? Why do geodetic and geologic methods often give
differing estimates of fault slip rates? Can a combination of seismic,
geodetic, and geologic deformation measurements constrain the rheology
of rocks in seismic zones? Can tectonic moment rates derived from
geodetic strain be used to infer long term seismic strain rates? Do
temporal variations in strain rates effectively portend future
earthquakes? </p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> Coseismic displacements,
deformation measurements, stress accumulation </p><p><strong>Review</strong>: All contributed abstracts
will be reviewed by the Convenors </p><p><strong>Options:</strong> Contributed papers are
optionally oral or poster presentations </p></div><div apple-content-edited="true"> <div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; "><br></div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; "><br></div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; ">To submit an abstract:</div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">https://ei.eventinfotech.com.au/ei/rs.esp?id=889&scriptid=REGAB</div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; "><br></div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; "><br></div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; "><br></div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; ">The Abstract template is available on the web:</div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; font-size: 12px; ">http://www.iugg2011.com/pdf/IUGG2011%20Abstract_template.doc<br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Dr. Jeffrey T.
