Active Deformation, Faults and Earthquakes

from Measurements to Models


Objectives

Over the past years, considerable advances have been made in observing crustal deformation
at scales of seconds to thousands of years.
However, a unified view of the earthquake cycle is still missing.

The thematic school aims at bringing together students and scientists
working on different aspects of active faulting and earthquake processes.

This school will provide a state-of-the-art view of the technics used to study active deformation
as well as a perspective on the current models integrating the growing corpus of
available data.
