Explanation:
Modeling crustal deformation is a very important process that helps to study plate interaction that clearly can be used to predict the likelihood of an earthquake.
Earthquake is a sudden displacement or movement with the earth that transmits elastic energy.
- Earthquakes can have shallow or deep focus depending on their location and the terrain.
- Movement on the earth are mostly noticeable along plate margins.
- This results in a world-wide movement of the broken slabs of the earth moving on the weak asthenosphere.
- It is impossible to go deep within the lithosphere to identify unstable earth.
- The uneven distribution of stress is very important in this process.
- As plate moves, the lithosphere deforms creating stresses in some area and relieving other places of stress.
- Continuous collection of stress data using strain mapping gives important parameters that can be modeled.
- Areas with high amount of stress and more movement have the highest tendency of producing earthquakes.
- A computer model is used to carry out this prediction.
- Some other factors contributes to the rapid movement but stress are by far the most important of all.
- By this, we can easily and readily hypothesize the causes of an earthquake and possible measures to mitigate it.
