On predictability of slip, rupture geometry, and speed of the 2025 M7.8 Mandalay, Myanmar, earthquake
The 2025 M7.8 Mandalay earthquake ruptured ~480 km of the Sagaing Fault, producing one of the longest strike-slip events documented and impacting a vulnerable region. Here we combine remote sensing observations and numerical modeling to show that the subsurface fault geometry and slip distribution could be anticipated...
