  2. Jan 2, 2024 · Western U.S. geologic deformation model for use in the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023, version 1.0. The U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) relies on deformation models to assign slip rates along active faults used in the earthquake rupture forecast. Here, we present the geologic deformation model results in tabular form.

  3. Sep 19, 2022 · Here, we evaluate fault geometries and geologic fault slip rates for the western United States to construct a new geologic deformation model for the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023 update (NSHM23). In previous NSHM iterations, only faults with published geologic slip rates were included.

  4. Dec 29, 2023 · Field et al. (2023) summarize the various components presently defined and utilized, including (1) fault models, defining physical attributes of explicitly modeled faults; (2) deformation models, specifying fault slip rates as constrained by geology and assessing the influence of each fault and in some cases “off-fault” deformation rates ...

  5. Sep 19, 2022 · This report describes geodetic and geologic information used to constrain deformation models of the 2023 update to the National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM), a set of deformation models to interpret these data, and their implications for earthquake rates in the western United States.
