Task 4: Make analog models of the SISZ and the TFZ

Start: March 1996 (month 1)
End: February 1998 (month 24)
Responsible partner: NVI
Cooperative partner: CNRS.TT

Olivier Dauteuil has already made analog models of transform faults in general and published recently in JGR. Dauteuil is now applying these models to the SISZ and the TFZ. This work also includes a continuing study of large-scale Holocene crustal deformation in the area south of the TFZ, using glacio-morphological data. The purpose of this work is partly to attempt to detect the Holocene crustal deformation in the area that could be related to the controlling stress field of the TFZ.
