Vertical Velocities: Not dominated by tectonics! GIA is the issue. http://www.unavco.org/research_science/workinggroups_projects/snarf/SNARF1.0/SNARF1.0.html
GIA Predicted Velocities: Very sensitive to model parameters http://www.unavco.org/research_science/workinggroups_projects/snarf/SNARF1.0/SNARF1.0.html

Normalized observed velocity field (in the PoD spherical coordinate system) The velocity transformation allows us to examine the velocity field by a single quantity - the magnitude of the longitudinal velocity (Vf).Vertical lines mark the orientation of small circles about the PoD.Horizontal lines mark the boundaries between 10 segments of similar velocity transitionVelocities are normalized by 0.64°/Myr.
Earthquake Cycle Thatcher 1986
Rate on a fault: How much displacement is accomodated On that feature for a given time. Geologic rate: Distance between offset feature/Time Geodetic rate: The amount of deformation imposed in the Model to fit the geodetic data
Example of Geologic rate
Seismicity Up to now we have assumed linear behavior of the movement of the observed point Lecture 6 May 24th 2005
