The M-w 8.2, 17 February 1996 Biak, Indonesia, earthquake: Rupture history, aftershocks, and fault plane properties
We analyze the rupture history of this earthquake, the largest thrust earthquake since 1977, primarily using broadband SH wave seismograms. We show that the earthquake occurred on a shallow dipping thrust fault (strike 109°, dip 9°, rake 72°) with a seismic moment of 2.7 × 1021 N m. The rupture prop...
