Thanks Kay, but I meant "actual" profiles not animations of HOW they work. BUT, it will be good to see again. Regards, Jerry ----- Original Message ----- From: Kay Wyatt To: psn-l@..............

The IRIS program has some great animations that explain much about subduction zones http://www.iris.edu/hq/programs/education_and_outreach/animations In particular, here are a couple animations that show the elastic rebound effect in a subduction zone. http://www.iris.edu/hq/programs/education_and_outreach/animations#B In addition, the IRIS website puts out some educational information for significant earthquakes at http://www.iris.edu/hq/retm Hope these help.

I realize that such a profile is not universal or homogeneous. I may not be available because of the high possibility of variation along the interface. I can see where the plates meet each other and their approx. rate of interface, but not how the profile of that plate looks. The 8.8 Chilean event was shown eventually and was interesting to me in visualizing the occurrence.Thanks Kay, but I meant "actual" profiles not animations of HOW = they=20 work.
