Rock-mechanics experiments, geodetic observations of postloading strain transients, and
micro-and macrostructural studies of exhumed ductile shear zones provide complementary …

Elastic anisotropy is present where the speed of a seismic wave depends on its direction. In
Earth's mantle, elastic anisotropy is induced by minerals that are preferentially oriented in a …

Crustal structure along a 140 km long profile across the San Andreas Fault (SAF) in
southern California was imaged by stacking teleseismic P–S converted phases recorded by …

In order to understand how orogens “work,” a quantitative approach demonstrating proof of
concept is essential. Our goal is to reconcile the diverse array of tectonic features observed …

We use Global Positioning System (GPS) observations and elastic half-space models to
estimate the distribution of coseismic and postseismic slip along the Izmit earthquake …

Geological and geomorphological offsets at different scales are used to constrain the
localization of deformation, total displacement, and slip rates over various timescales along …

Strong quartz crystallographic preferred orientations (CPOs) were developed during
dislocation creep in the mylonite zone exposed in the hanging wall of the dextral reverse …

We present a tectonic, surface process model used to investigate the role of horizontal
shortening in convergent orogens and the effects on steady-state topography. The tectonic …

Summary The landmass of New Zealand exists as a consequence of transpressional
collision between the Australian and Pacific plates, providing an excellent opportunity to …

Forty‐one wideband magnetotelluric (MT) soundings were collected in a 150‐km‐long
transect across the Southern Alps of the central South Island of New Zealand, an active …
