Max did a great job combining careful field data and numerical models to decipher the relationships between fault configuration and uplift patterns.
Should we expect site slip rates around restraining bends to remain constant over the 10-100k time scales? Probably not ’cause sites migrate and fault systems evolve! Hanna Elston led this new paper out in Geology.
