The motion of crustal blocks driven by flow of the lower lithosphere and implications for slip rates of continental strike-slip faults

Geodetic measurements in actively deforming areas of the continents reveal the pattern of deformation in the lithospere. If the dominant forces acting on crustal blooks are tractions at their bases, then the long-term motion of each block will be given by the average velocity of the underlying litho...
