Summary: | Many faults appear to form persistent zones of weakness that fundamentally influence the distribution, architecture and movement patterns of crustal-scale deformation and associated processes in both continental and oceanic regions. This book brings together papers by an international group of Earth scientists to discuss a broad range of topics centred upon the controls of fault weakening and the role of such faults during lithosphere deformation. |
