摘要
The empirical Green's function deconvolution technique is applied to the November 6, 1988, Ms=7.6, Yunnan, China earthquake to study the rupture process of this event. An aftershock of Ms=6.3 is taken as the empirical Green's function. Recordings of these two events at six stations of China Digital Seismographic Network (CDSN) are employed. Deconvolution results show that this event is a relatively simple event. Directivity analysis indicates that the rupture was initiated at hypocenter and propagated bilaterally and nearly symmetrically towards the northwest and southeast directions with a total length of 70 km and a time duration of 19 s. The rupture velocity is estimated to be about 2.0 km/s.
