  abstract = {{T}he magnitude {M}-w=6.3 earthquake in {A}l {H}oceima, {M}orocco of 24 {F}ebruary, 2004 occurred in the active plate boundary accommodating the oblique convergence between {A}frica and {E}urasia. {T}hree different sets of estimates of its source parameters have already been published. {W}e try to resolve the discrepancies between them by using additional data including two remote sensing satellite systems ({ENVISAT} and {SPOTS}). {U}sing a model with a dislocation in an elastic half-space, we constrain the source parameters. {T}he hypothesis of two subevents on distinct faults as inferred from seismological inversions is confirmed here by adopting a cross-fault mechanism. {T}he rupture began on a left-lateral strike-slip fault striking at {N}10 degrees azimuth with 90 cm of horizontal slip and then transferred to a right-lateral strike-slip fault striking at {N}312 degrees azimuth with 85 cm of horizontal slip. {T}he first fault is at 500 m depth from the free surface and the second fault is at 3 km depth. {T}his model is consistent with ground-based observations, including {GPS}, seismology, and mapped surface fissures. {T}he pair of faults activated in 2004 appears to constitute part of a complex seismogenic structure striking {NNE}-{SSW} that separates the {R}if tectonic blocks.},
