Distribution of strike‐slip faults on Europa [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2000 Study of four different regions on Europa imaged by the Galileo spacecraft during its first 15 orbits has revealed 117 strike‐slip faults. Europa appears to form preferentially right‐lateral faults in the southern hemisphere and left‐lateral faults in the northern hemisphere.

The 1988 and 1990 Upland Earthquakes: Left-Lateral Faulting Adjacent to the Central Transverse Ranges [PDF]
, 1991 Two earthquakes (M_L=4.6 and M_L=5.2) occurred at almost the same location in Upland, southern California, in June 1988 and February 1990 and had similar strike-slip focal mechanisms with left-lateral motion on a northeast striking plane.

Major Strike-Slip Faults Identified Using Satellite Data in Central Borneo, SE Asia
Geosciences, 2018 We use freely available Google satellite data, instrumental seismicity, fault plane solutions, and previously mapped structural and geological maps to identify new fault zones in central Borneo.

Effects of Fault Dip and Slip Rake Angles on Near-Source Ground Motions: Why Rupture Directivity Was Minimal in the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan, Earthquake [PDF]
, 2004 We study how the fault dip and slip rake angles affect near-source ground velocities and displacements as faulting transitions from strike-slip motion on a vertical fault to thrust motion on a shallow-dipping fault.

An aseismic slip pulse in northern Chile and along-strike variations in seismogenic behavior [PDF]
, 2006 We use interferometric synthetic aperture radar, GPS, and seismic observations spanning 5 to 18 years to reveal a detailed kinematic picture of the spatiotemporal evolution of fault slip in a region corresponding to the 30 July 1995 M_w 8.1 subduction ...

Source model for the 1997 Zirkuh earthquake (MW: 7.2) in Iran derived from JERS and ERS InSAR observations [PDF]
, 2017 We present the first detailed source model of the 1997 M7.2 Zirkuh earthquake that ruptured the entire Abiz fault in East Iran producing a 125 km long, bended and segmented fault trace.

Refining the shallow slip deficit [PDF]
, 2016 Geodetic slip inversions for three major (M_w > 7) strike-slip earthquakes (1992 Landers, 1999 Hector Mine and 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah) show a 15–60 per cent reduction in slip near the surface (depth < 2 km) relative to the slip at deeper depths (4–6 km ...

Late Mesozoic strike-slip faulting in Tasmania [PDF]
Australian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2015 Jurassic dolerite is well exposed in fresh cuttings and quarries throughout Tasmania, and fault striations were found in a high proportion of these exposures in the south and west of the state. These fault striation provide a record of late Mesozoic faulting dominated by dextral west-northwest–east-southeast-striking faults and sinistral north–south ...
