TECTONIC SETTING
The M8.6 April 11, 2012 earthquake off the west coast of northern Sumatra, Indonesia, occurred asa result of strike-slip faulting within the oceanic lithosphere of the Indo-Australia plate. The quakewas located approximately 100 km to the southwest of the major subduction zone that defines theplate boundary between the Indo-Australia and Sunda plates offshore Sumatra. At this location, theIndo-Australia plate moves north-northeast with respect to the Sunda plate at a velocity ofapproximately 52 mm/yr.
Large strike-slip earthquakes, while rare, are not unprecedented in this region of the Indo-Australianplate. Since the massive M 9.1 earthquake that ruptured a 1300 km long segment of the Sumatranmegathrust plate boundary in December of 2004, three large strike-slip events have occurred within50 km of the April 11, 2012 even. These earthquakes occurred on April 19 2006 (Mw6.2), October4 2007 (Mw6.2) and January 10, 2012 (Mw7.2). In all three cases, the style of faulting was similar.These events align approximately with fabric of the sea floor in the diffuse boundary zone betweenthe Indian and Australian plates.
