peer agreement (net): +1tension of the fault / the fault's tension Explanation: It is flat beneathmost of the Mojave Desert and deepens gradually toa depth of 35 km beneath the SAF. This continuousfeature is apparently truncated by the downward ex-tension of the fault. http://www.eas.slu.edu/People/LZhu/paper/larse93.pdf There, the Pacific plate's movement can be arrested for years until pressures build up to the fracturing point. Energy is finally released in moderate to severe earthquakes that redistribute the fault's tension. http://www.env.duke.edu/dukenvironment/fall2000/faultlines.h... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-06-17 17:42:10 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- tension of the faults / the faults\' tension Reference: http://www.eas.slu.edu/People/LZhu/paper/larse93.pdf Reference: http://www.env.duke.edu/dukenvironment/fall2000/faultlines.h... |
