Editor's Note
Fossils
found at the crests of mountain ranges, oceanic crust scraped up onto
the leading edge of continents, and the massive force of earthquakes
all give testimony to the dynamic nature of the earth’s
lithosphere. The dynamic forces shaping the lithosphere are
recorded in the structure of the crust of the earth. The geometry
and timing of these structures all give clues to the processes and
dynamic history of crustal deformation.
