GNSS signals in South Korea after the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake

Our numerical models indicate that the asthenospheric
viscosity in this region is approximately 1019 Pa sec. However, deforma-
tion rates from the numerical models exhibit lower magnitudes and broader
scales of variation compared to those from GNSS data. The sensitivity of the
numerical modeling results suggests that small-scale variations in GNSS de-
formation rates might arise from lithospheric heterogeneity at a comparable
scale.
