Title: Geology of the Earthquake Source: A Volume in Honour of Rick Sibson
Series: GSL Special Publications
Author/Editor: Edited by A Fagereng, V Toy and J V Rowland
Publication Date: 22 December 2011
New Publication
Description: This collection of papers in tribute to Professor Rick Sibson examines the geological record of earthquake faulting. Observations in active fault zones combine with information from exhumed ancient faults and theoretical studies to illustrate relationships between fault rocks and slip styles, particularly considering the effects of fluids and fault reactivation.

Title: Deformation Mechanisms, Rheology and Tectonics: Microstructures, Mechanics and Anistropy
Series: GSL Special Publications
Author/Editor: Edited by D J Prior, E H Rutter and D J Tatham
Publication Date: 07 December 2011
New Publication
Description: This collection of papers presents recent advances in the study of deformation mechanisms and rheology and their applications to tectonics. The determination of elastic properties from petrofabrics and the understanding of microstructural and mechanical evolution during deformation provide linking themes that are addressed using laboratory experiments, field studies and computational methods.
