The article “Do faults preserve a record of seismic slip: A second opinion,” published in 2015, offers a thoughtful review of the sure and potential records of seismic slip in rocks. The paper examines the notion that rocks in ancient faults, now exposed at the surface, act as archives of past seismic slip events. …</p> <p class="more-link my-1 text-right "><a class="external"href="https://blogs.egu.eu/divisions/ts/2025/04/01/ts-must-read-rowe-and-griffith-2015-do-faults-preserve-a-record-of-seismic-slip-a-second-opinion/" aria-label="Read more about TS Must-Read – Rowe and Griffith (2015) Do faults preserve a record of seismic slip: A second opinion">Read more</a> </div> </article> <hr> <article class="media"> <img role="presentation" alt="" class="img-fluid img-thumbnail" src="https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/02/28/a83fe0a4-5d39-4ea1-b5d6-639fd0289b57.png.120x120_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp" srcset="https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/02/28/a83fe0a4-5d39-4ea1-b5d6-639fd0289b57.png.120x120_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp 1x, https://www.egu.eu/media/news/blogmessages/2025/02/28/a83fe0a4-5d39-4ea1-b5d6-639fd0289b57.png.240x240_q90_crop-smart_upscale.webp 2x" loading="lazy"> <div class="media-body"> <a class="h4 external" href="https://blogs.egu.eu/divisions/ts/2025/02/28/geomythology-crater-lake-from-love-war-and-or-natural-phenomena/">Geomythology.
