Figure 1| The Sumatran megathrust. a, The history of seismic slip in the great megathrust earthquakes in western Sumatra since 1797. Outlines of historical earthquakes are shown as rectilinear boxes. The slip distribution (colour scale) shows total seismic slip in the 2005 and 2007 events (after ref. 1), whose epicentres are indicated by coloured stars. The red star indicates the epicentre of the Padang earthquake. The focal mechanism (black-and-white ‘beach ball’) is in map view. b, Distribution of plate coupling2 (colour scale); areas of high coupling might be expected to experience most slip during earthquakes. c, Coulomb stress (CS) from the Padang event resolved on the megathrust within the dashed box in a. We consider the mechanism acting along the east–west failure plane, resolving stresses onto the plate interface modelled as a plane dipping from the trench at 12 for 190 km and at 25 farther northeast under the Sumatran coast. We use a friction coefficient of μ= 0.4; sensitivity tests indicate that this choice is not crucial. Stresses range from about− 8 bar (strong relaxation) directly above the hypocentre to 3 bar (moderate loading) a few tens of kilometres to the northwest and southeast. The stress scale has been truncated at 0.2 bar to make small stresses visible. Stresses generally decrease towards the trench and are small but slightly negative under Siberut, where the highest seismic threat is expected. The focal mechanism has been rotated to correct for the local dip of the slab; that is, it is the mechanism that would have been obtained if the slab were fiattened or had never subducted.
