Abstract
We revisit the source of the 1992 Flores earthquake and tsunami using finite-fault inversion. We simultaneously invert teleseismic body and surface waves together with coseismic uplift/subsidence datasets. We then verify the inverted source against tsunami run-up heights along the northern coast of Flores Island and the only tide gauge recording of the tsunami. Our preferred source model provides a good fit to all the datasets, whereas previous models only explained a subset of the available data. We show that the fault geometry implies segmentation of the back-arc thrust system in the eastern Sunda Arc.
