Influences of across-strike heterogeneous viscosity on the earthquake cycle in a three-dimensional strike-slip fault model

Geodetic observations have shown that there exist large differences in the viscosity of the deep lithosphere across many large strike-slip faults. Heterogeneity in lithospheric viscosity structure can influence the efficiency of stress transfer and thus may have a significant effect on the earthquak...
