Description:
Oceanic transform faults and ridge segments
form a network where mechanical
interaction is to be expected.
In particular, dike emplacement in ridge
segments is likely to affect earthquake
activity in the adjacent transform faults through processes such as stress transfer.
Similarly, strike-slip displacement
across transform faults may trigger dike
injections and, eventually, eruptions in
the adjacent ridge segments. For obvious
reasons, direct observations of the
possible mechanical interaction between
submarine transform zones and ridge
segments at mid-ocean ridges are difficult.
The subaerial seismic zones of Iceland,
however, are in clear spatial connections
with the adjacent volcanic zones. These zones, therefore, provide
excellent opportunities to study stress
transfer between volcanic and seismic
zones (Gudmundsson 2000)...
