Abstract

High-rate GPS and seismic sensors are mutually contributing to seismological applications for capturing earthquake-induced coseismic displacements. In this study, we propose an approach for tightly integrating GPS and strong motion data on raw observation level to increase the quality of the derived displacements. The performance of the proposed approach is demonstrated using 5 Hz high-rate GPS and 200 Hz strong motion data collected during the El Mayor–Cucapah earthquake (M w 7.2, 2010 April 4) in Baja California, Mexico. The new approach not only takes advantages of both GPS and strong motion sensors, but also improves the reliability of the displacement by enhancing GPS integer-cycle phase ambiguity resolution, which is very critical for deriving displacements with highest quality.
