11.7 How do earthquakes relate to rock deformation?

Earthquakes in the field, as in lab simulations, absorb stress up to a finite limit and then release it when they break. It should be no surprise that earthquakes line up along the strike of a fault (left) as well as along the dip direction of the fault plane in cross section (right).
