Western U.S. geologic deformation model for use in the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023, version 1.0

April 7, 2023

The U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM) relies on deformation models to assign slip rates along active faults used in the earthquake rupture forecast. Here, we present the geologic deformation model results in tabular form. We provide model outputs in multiple file formats, as well as the polygons used in analyses throughout the geologic deformation model process.The data presented herein are in support of the following interprative manuscript: Hatem, A.E., Reitman, N.G., Briggs, R.W., Gold, R.D., Thompson Jobe, J.A., Burgette, R.J., (2022) ­­­Western U.S. geologic deformation model for use in the U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model 2023, Seismological Research Letters.
