Earthquakes with vertical dip
Earthquakes with vertical dip. Part of the Century of Earthquakes poster. Earthquakes that have a vertical dip, like the 1906 San Francisco earthquake, generally have a smaller fault area and less of it in the area where stress builds. In contrast, subduc

New trench cycle
New trench cycle. Part of the Century of Earthquakes poster. An earthquake occurs when the accumulated stresses on the fault exceed the fault strength. Beneath Sumatra, the overriding plate that had been dragged down since the last major earthquake reboun
