It may be resolved into strike slip and dip slip, which are respectively horizontal and vertical components, in the plane of the fault. Dip slip may also be resolved into a horizontal component and into a vertical component(the throw of the fault) 环境迪顶学 minoucntalocelogu ,率地球内部过程 Geologic Tectonics • Faults Figure 4.18 Before fault movement A and A' and B and B' were adjacent to each other.
