Determination of the dipping direction of a blind reverse fault from InSAR: case study on the 2017 Sefid Sang earthquake, northeastern Iran

Determining the fault parameters of an earthquake is fundamental for studying the earthquake physics, understanding the seismotectonics of the region, and forecasting future earthquake activities in the surrounding area. Dense crustal deformation data such as Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) are useful for fault parameter determination, but determining the dipping direction of a blind fault is often challenging when the size of the earthquake is not large ( M
