| Earthquake and Volcano Deformation Subjects: Rock deformation -- Mathematical models; Strains and stress -- Mathematical models; Volcanism; Earthquakes; Deformations (Mechanics); Earthquake and Volcano Deformation is the first textbook to present the mechanical models of earthquake and volcanic processes, emphasizing earth-surface deformations that can be compared with observations from Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers, Interferometric Radar (InSAR), and borehole strain- and tiltmeters. Paul Segall provides the physical and mathematical fundamentals for the models used to interpret deformation measurements near active faults and volcanic centers. Paul Segall is professor of geophysics at Stanford University. |
