Dynamic rupture simulation of the 1833 Songming, Yunnan, China, M 8.0 earthquake: Effects from stepover location and overlap distance

This datasets accompany the western Xiaojiang fault surface coordinates that were used for construction of the fault geometry model and the observational fault surface slip of the 1833 Songming M 8.0 earthquake in Dynamic rupture simulation of the 1833 Songming, Yunnan, China, M 8.0 earthquake: Effects from stepover location and overlap distance submitted to <em>Earth and Space Science </em>by Yu et al. (2021). The data is structured as follows: Once unzipped the data within the archive are two folders structured as follows: subfolder "fault_coordinates" is for the western Xiaojiang fault surface coordinates and "fault_slip" is for the observational fault surface slip. Inside the first folder, there are three txt files, "wxj_conti.txt" is for the continuous western Xiaojiang fault model, "wxj_qshso.txt" is for the western Xiaojiang fault model with Qingshuihai stepover structure, and "wxj_yzhso.tx" is for the western Xiaojiang fault model with Qingshuihai and Yangzonghai stepover structures. Inside the second folder, there is one txt file, 'fault_surface_slip.txt' is for the observational fault surface slip of the 1833 Songming earthquake with the observational location.
