In this study are reported estimates of the ground displacement associated with this event, using near-eld Global Positioning System (GPS) surveys in northwestern Sumatra combined with in situ and remote observations of the vertical motion of coral reefs ...

<p>The active deformation of the southwestern United States (30 - 41 N) is represented by a finite number of rotating, elastic-plastic spherical caps.</p>

<p>Partitioning of slip at oblique subduction zones is common and frequently results in lithospheric blocks being detached from the overriding plate. A method is described to solve simultaneously for both block rotations on asphere and locking on block-bounding ...
