Hi Allan,

Do you mean depth as in 'the depth at which the fault occurs' or something else?

Hi Everybody,

Does any one knows about one empirical relationship to relate fault length to DEPTH for every type of fault ??. There are several parameters influencing the behaviour but I just need a crude relation or rule of thumb. I am working close to the Middle American subduction zone in Costa Rica
