Stress and fault parameters affecting fault slip magnitude and activation time during a glacial cycle

Abstract: The growing and melting of continental ice sheets during a glacial cycle is accompanied by stress changes and reactivation of faults. To better understand the relationship between stress changes, fault activation time, fault parameters, and fault slip magnitude, a new physics‐based two‐dimensional numerical model is used. In this study, tectonic background stress magnitudes and fault parameters are tested as well as the angle of the fault and the fault locations relative to the ice sheet. Our results show that… Show more

“…4; Piotrowski, 1997;Piotrowski and Tulaczyk, 1999). Repeated ice sheet loading and unloading during the Pleistocene caused vertical and horizontal stress variation, which led to a change in the equilibrium situation of the lithosphere and mass movements in the upper and lower mantle (e.g., Al Hseinat and Hübscher, 2014;Arvidsson, 1996;Brandes et al, 2012a, b;Dyke et al, 1991;Fenton, 1994;Johnston, 1987;Kujansuu, 1964;Lagerbäck, 1978;Lagerbäck and Sundh, 2008;Lang et al, 2014;Munier and Fenton, 2004;Muir-Wood, 2000;Olesen, 1988;Quinlan, 1984;Sandersen and Jørgensen, 2015;Sauber and Molnia, 2004;Shilts et al, 1992;Steffen et al, 2014aSteffen et al, , 2014bSteffen et al, , 2014cSteffen et al, , 2016Steffen and Wu, 2011;Stewart et al, 2000;Turpeinen et al, 2008;Wu et al, 1999).…”

“…Hampel et al . [, hereinafter Ha15] recently commented on our study [ Steffen et al , ], which investigates the effect of stress and fault parameters on fault slip magnitude and activation time during a glacial cycle using a newly developed two‐dimensional glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA)‐fault model [ Steffen et al , ]. In summary, Ha15 criticize the following parts of our study stating “ (1) that Steffen et al [] describe our modeling approach in a misleading way, (2) that they do not mention the specific results (e.g., regarding the amount and timing of fault slip) of our studies anywhere in their article despite the similarity of the topic of their article, and (3) that the content and layout of Steffen et al's Figure 1 closely resembles two figures previously published in our studies but they do not cite the source (they, however, introduced conceptual errors concerning the glacial‐interglacial stress evolution into their figure) .”…”

“…We appreciate the comment by Ha15 as it gives us the opportunity to discuss and describe the differences between our model and Hampel et al's model in greater detail than in Steffen et al . [] and earlier publications. We show that comparison between the results of both model approaches is not feasible.…”
