An integrated global model of present-day plate motions and plate boundary deformation

C Kreemer, WE Holt, AJ Haines - Geophysical Journal …, 2003 - academic.oup.com
In this paper we present a global model (GSRM-1) of both horizontal velocities on the Earth's
surface and horizontal strain rates for almost all deforming plate boundary zones. A model …

Reconstruction of the deformed collision zone between India and Asia by backward motion of lithospheric blocks

A Replumaz, P Tapponnier - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
On the basis of a synthesis of tectonic data available on the India‐Asia collision, we present

Continuous GPS array and present-day crustal deformation of Japan

T Sagiya, S Miyazaki, T Tada - Pure and applied Geophysics, 2000 - Springer
A GPS array with about 1,000 permanent stations is under operation in Japan. The GPS
array revealed coseismic deformations associated with large earthquakes and ongoing …

Kinematics of the India‐Eurasia collision zone from GPS measurements

KM Larson, R Bürgmann, R Bilham… - … Research: Solid Earth, 1999 - Wiley Online Library

Self‐consistency in reference frames, geocenter definition, and surface loading of the solid Earth

G Blewitt - Journal of geophysical research: solid earth, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Crustal motion can be described as a vector displacement field, which depends on both the
physical deformation and the reference frame. Self‐consistent descriptions of surface …
