Study on Coulomb Stress Triggering of the April 2015 M7.8 Nepal Earthquake Sequence

Figure 5

Coulomb stress changes on both nodal planes of M6.3 aftershock triggered by M7.3 earthquake based on Gavin Hayes’s finite fault model (unit: bar). (a) Nodal plane: 274, 14, 89, depth: 15.5 km; (b) 95, 76, 90, depth: 15.5 km.
