Geodesy, the oldest science, has become an important discipline in the geosciences, in
large part by enhancing Global Positioning System (GPS) capabilities over the last 35 years …

▪ Abstract We present preliminary evidence for a∼ 10,000-year earthquake record from two
major fault systems based on sediment cores collected along the continental margins of …

We describe best-fitting angular velocities and MORVEL, a new closure-enforced set of
angular velocities for the geologically current motions of 25 tectonic plates that collectively …

We present a new global model for Recent plate velocities, REVEL, describing the relative
velocities of 19 plates and continental blocks. The model is derived from publicly available …

The third edition of this widely acclaimed textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to
all aspects of global tectonics, and includes major revisions to reflect the most significant …

In this paper we present a global model (GSRM-1) of both horizontal velocities on the Earth's
surface and horizontal strain rates for almost all deforming plate boundary zones. A model …

We estimate slip rates on major active faults in southern California using a block model
constrained by Global Positioning System measurements of interseismic deformation. The …

Velocities from 153 continuously‐operating GPS sites on the Caribbean, North American,
and Pacific plates are combined with 61 newly estimated Pacific‐Cocos seafloor spreading …

Partitioning of slip at oblique subduction zones is common and frequently results in
lithospheric blocks being detached from the overriding plate. A method is described to solve …

Using space geodetic observations from four techniques (GPS, VLBI, SLR and DORIS), we
simultaneously estimate the angular velocities of 11 major plates and the velocity of Earth's …
