Abstract

The Global Strain Rate Map project II-8, initiated in 1998 by the International Lithosphere Program (ILP), provides constraints for understanding continental dynamics and for quantifying seismic hazards in general. To date, the Global Strain Rate Map (GSRM) model is a numerical velocity gradient tensor fi eld solution (i.e., spatial variations of horizontal strain rate tensor components and rotation rates) for the entire Earth surface
