l strain rates and rotation rates about the vertical axis. Solutions can also be expressed in terms of the input force couples, which are the vertical derivative of horizontal shear stress (VDoHS).
The joint inversion aims at finding the best-fit linear combination of horizontal and vertical basis functions that can predict the input horizontal GNSS and ascending and descending InSAR data. We obtain the InSAR data from Xu et al. 2021 and GNSS data from MIDAS (Blewitt et al. 2016) and Yuehua et al. 2023. We then apply a damped weighted least squares problem solved using Ridge regularization and Akaike Bayesian Information Criterion.
We present the interseismic kinematic solution for Southern California. The joint inversion yields a high resolution 3-D velocity field and strain rate field prediction throughout Southern California. We also obtain high resolution predictions of the patterns of VDoHS throughout southern California. The patterns and magnitudes of strain rates and VDoHS will enable us to determine the locking depth and slip rates on the major strike slip and dip slip structures. Moreover, the vertical velocity field shows strong correlations with groundwater changes in basins, having both natural and anthropogenic sources for the changes.
