Plate bending stresses at axial highs, and implications for faulting behavior
We develop flexural models of axial high topography which include the effects of plastic yielding, and use the results to examine the contribution of plate bending stresses and strains to fault patterns at the East Pacific Rise (EPR). The lithosphere responds to buoyancy near the ridge axis created by the presence of elevated temperatures and melt within the crust. Parameterizing these quantiti...

متن کاملMotion and rigidity of the Pacific Plate and implications for plate boundary deformation
[1] Using up to 11 years of data from a global network of Global Positioning System (GPS) stations, including 12 stations well distributed across the Pacific Plate, we derive present-day Euler vectors for the Pacific Plate more precisely than has previously been possible from space geodetic data. After rejecting on statistical grounds the velocity of one station on each of the Pacific and North...
متن کاملHolocene faulting in the Bellingham forearc basin: Upper-plate deformation at the northern end of the Cascadia subduction zone
[1] The northern Cascadia forearc takes up most of the strain transmitted northward via the Oregon Coast block from the northward-migrating Sierra Nevada block. The north-south contractional strain in the forearc manifests in upper-plate faults active during the Holocene, the northern-most components of which are faults within the Bellingham Basin. The Bellingham Basin is the northern of four b...
متن کاملRelativistic Stellar Pulsations With Near-Zone Boundary Conditions
A new method is presented here for evaluating approximately the pulsation modes of relativistic stellar models. This approximation relies on the fact that gravitational radiation influences these modes only on timescales that are much longer than the basic hydrodynamic timescale of the system. This makes it possible to impose the boundary conditions on the gravitational potentials at the surfac...
