Constant strain accumulation rate between major earthquakes on the North Anatolian Fault
Accumulation of interseismic strain may now be constrained by satellite observations. Here, the authors show that strain accumulation rates on the North Anatolian Fault are constant for the interseismic period indicating that lower-crustal viscosities ...
