Crustal stress and faulting: Data analysis

• How frequent is Anderson's faulting in world seismicity ?
  • Approach: analysis of the Global Centroid Moment Tensor catalog.
  • Result: data in the 0-30 km depth range are consistent with Anderson's faulting being the most frequent case, but they do not require it.
