fault scarp - Guide to fault scarp from The Oxford Companion to the Earth at Encyclopedia.com ... For a true fault scarp to form, displacement at the hypocentre of the earthquake (the focus of the earthquake, typically 10–20 km beneath the surface) must be sufficiently large to propagate to the surface.

Most earthquakes (small to moderate earthquakes, in particular) stop before the fault slip reaches the ground surface, but during large earthquakes the fault slip usually creates a break (or fault scarp) at the ground surface.

A high-resolution multi-fold wide-angle seismic survey carried out across the Irpinia fault, Southern Italy, yields new information about the shallow structure of this normal fault that was reactivated in 1980. The fault zone is imaged to a depth of about 60 m by using a non-linear tomographic technique that is...

Reinterpretation of seismic reflection profiles suggests that the BRE may be structurally controlled by an east dipping normal fault. Significant offset (~700 m down to the SE) in a prominent layered sequence at ~7 km depth had been imaged on the SEISDATA and COCORP seismic profiles.
