The tables below summarize the information on the data used in this study [Bilham et al. 2005; Gahalaut et al. 2006; Meltzner et al. 2006; Subarya et al. 2006; Vigny et al. 2005]. They consist of campaign GPS data (Tables 1, 2) and data from continuous GPS stations (Table 3). Cumulated postseismic displacements over 5 days [Vigny et al. 2005] and over 30 days are in tables 4 and 5. Vertical displacements are reported for coral measurements from Simeulue island (Table 6), estimates from eyewitness accounts (Table 7), estimation of the position of the pivot-line (Table 8). The predicted displacements of the models discussed in the main text are compared to the vertical observations in figure 1.
Table 1. Campaign GPS station coordinates and estimated displacements collected one month or more after the 26 December 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake [Subarya et al. 2006]. Nine columns giving each site name, longitude and latitude (in decimal degrees), east and north displacement (in cm), east and north 1-sigma values (in cm), vertical components and its uncertainties (cm).
Table 2. Estimated displacements and uncertainties(cm) of campaign GPS station in the Nicobar-Andaman Islands from [Gahalaut et al. 2006]. All Measurements were done at least one time before the 26 December 2004 Sumatra-Andaman earthquake, in February-March 2004 and after the earthquake between 11-22 January 2005. CarNicobar was measured in December 2003 and in February 2005 from[Jade et al. 2005].
Table 3. Estimated displacements and uncertainties (cm) of 39 permanent GPS stations in Thailand and Malaysia from [Vigny et al. 2005]. All Measurements represent 1-day solution. Eight columns giving each site name, longitude and latitude (in decimal degrees), east and north displacement (in mm), east and north 1-sigma values (again in mm), horizontal components correlation.
