Abstract
Results derived from processing of data of field observations in the epicentral zone of the Altai earthquake of 2003 are presented. Accurate location of aftershocks showed that their spatial distribution is in good agreement with the source rupture outcropping on the Earth’s surface. According to aftershock data, the source had a length of 75 km and a maximum width of 20 km and extended in the vertical direction for 17 km; the displacement in the source averaged 2.5 m. Clusters identified in the aftershock cloud define variously dipping planes. The location of hypocenters by regional, national, and global seismic networks is not accurate enough to examine spatial features of the aftershocks.
