Glacial-isostatic-adjustment strain rate–stress paradox in the Western Alps and impact on active faults and seismicity

<p>In many regions formerly glaciated during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) explains most of the measured uplift and deformation rates. GIA is also proposed as a key process contributing to fault activity and seismicity shortly after the LGM and potentially...
