<p>Crustal deformation is the study of active geophysical processes that occur within he earth&rsquo;s lithosphere. Geodesy provides facilities to investigate the earth&rsquo;s crust ovements and shares these data with the other disciplines. The various sources ...

<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 ...

A two-layer (crust and upper mantle), finite difference steady-state thermomechanical model of a long-lived (several million years) lithospheric strike-slip fault is presented, and its predictions compared with field observations from various major fault zones ...
