Definition

Earthquake cycle :

A conceptual model that explains the buildup of stress that causes earthquakes, through a period of steady tectonic loading that culminates in sudden slip in an earthquake.

Slip deficit :

The difference between the slip that has occurred over a period of time on a fault and the amount expected from the long-term fault slip rate; a measure of the accumulated slip “available” for an earthquake on the fault.

Displacement :

The change in position of a point on the Earth’s surface.

Coseismic displacement :

The final, static displacement of the surface caused by slip in an earthquake.

Postseismic displacement :

Displacements caused by postseismic processes, which are transient deformation processes that follow large earthquakes.

Creep :

Steady gradual fault slip that is aseismic (does not result in an earthquake).

Volcanic inflation :

Dilatational deformation caused by pressurization of a volcanic system.

Glacial isostatic adjustment...
