Interdependence of fault displacement rates and paleoearthquakes in an active rift
Paleoearthquakes at Earth's surface often generate faults with variable displacement rates

High-resolution record of displacement accumulation on an active normal fault: implications for models of slip accumulation during repeated earthquakes
The spatial and temporal accumulation of slip from multiple earthquake cycles on active
faults is poorly understood. Here, we describe a methodology that can determine the time …
