Triple junction kinematics accounts for the 2016 M(w) 7.8 Kaikoura earthquake rupture complexity

The 2016, moment magnitude (M(w)) 7.8, Kaikoura earthquake generated the most complex surface ruptures ever observed. Although likely linked with kinematic changes in central New Zealand, the driving mechanisms of such complexity remain unclear. Here, we propose an interpretation accounting for the...
