Coseismic slip and early post-earthquake afterslip are important ways to observe seismogenic morphology and friction properties of seismogenic faults. We use InSAR data to obtain the coseismic and early postseismic deformation and estimate the fault slip distribution model. The coseismic slip is mainly distributed in the shallow upper crust and shows several shallow slip deficits. The dip in the eastern branches fault is opposite to the western and main segment. We process 4.5 months postseismic deformation based on the N-SBAS method, which accumulates~5 cm displacement in near-field and ~2 cm in far-field. The afterslip distributed in both updip and downdip areas and laterally extended alongside western and eastern ends. The shallow upper crust afterslip fills the shallow slip deficit, and several areas overlap the coseismic slip. The maximum afterslip is ~20 cm in the updip region. The temporal-spatial moment shows rapid afterslip in the shallow upper crust and stable afterslip in the downdip area, which indicates the complex friction properties of the seismogenic fault.
