Use of longitudinal strain in identifying driving and resisting elements of landslides Use of longitudinal strain in identifying driving and resisting elements of landslides
Observations of deformation at the surfaces of landslides in Utah and Hawaii indicate that the upslope parts of the land-slides have stretched and the downslope parts have shortened parallel with the direction of movement. The maximum displacement of each landslide occurs in a relatively undeformed zone between the zones of shortening and stretching. The pattern of deformation at the...

Large-scale variation in lithospheric structure along and across the Kenya rift Large-scale variation in lithospheric structure along and across the Kenya rift
The Kenya rift is one of the classic examples of a continental rift zone: models for its evolution range from extension of the lithosphere by pure shear1, through extension by simple shear2, to diapiric upwelling of an asthenolith3. Following a pilot study in 19854, the present work involved the shooting of three seismic refraction and wide-angle reflection profiles along the axis...
