Relationship between the amount of slip on the fault and the topography(small scale fault segmentation)

The complementarities of observations from tectonics (detailed map of co-seismicdisplacements at surface) and seismology (focal mechanisms, aftershocks and strong motions analysis) provided a datield kinematic model of the fault zone having generated the earthquake.
