| 释义 |
The North Hispaniola Fault, North Hispaniola Thrust or North Hispaniola Deformed Belt is a major thrust zone developed to the north of the island of Hispaniola. It has formed as a result of transpression along the southern margin of the North American Plate. The strike-slip part of the overall movement is taken up by the Septentrional-Oriente fault zone, while the North Hispaniola Fault takes up the shortening perpendicular to the boundary. GPS data suggest that the North Hispaniola Fault is associated with about 5 mm per year of convergence.[1] References1. ^{{cite journal |last1=Calais E.|last2=Mazabraud Y.|last3= de Lépinay B.M.|last4 = Mann P.|last5 = Mattioli G.|last6 = Jansma P.|date=2002 |title= Strain partitioning and fault slip rates in the northeastern Caribbean from GPS measurements|url= https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Yves_Mazabraud/publication/235637166_Strain_partitioning_and_fault_slip_rates_in_the_Northeastern_Caribbean_from_GPS_measurements/links/0912f51226b527b847000000/Strain-partitioning-and-fault-slip-rates-in-the-Northeastern-Caribbean-from-GPS-measurements.pdf|journal= Geophysical Research Letters|volume= 29|issue= 18|pages= |doi= 10.1029/2002GL015397|access-date= }} 2 : Active faults|Geology of Haiti |
