A significant proportion of moderate-large earthquakes, plus aftershocks, nucleate within and propagate through upper-crustal carbonate-dominated sequences, where the effects of lithological variations on fault behaviour are poorly understood. The Gu... Read More about Lithological controls on the deformation mechanisms operating within carbonate-hosted faults during the seismic cycle.
