Summary

As glacially induced faults are reactivated due to a combination of tectonic and glacially induced isostatic stresses, it is interesting to model the corresponding fault slip with dedicated models. The next chapters introduce first such a modelling approach with a well-established model of glacial isostatic adjustment followed by a review of stresses to be considered in sophisticated future modelling.
