（恕删） 不好意思，荼毒一下大家的眼睛...蝌蚪文一堆...不过可以综合一下、厘清一下~~^^ 前面的大大说的都是棒的啦～我顺水插花一下... Transform fault: a. A strike-slip fault that links two other faults or two other plate boundaries (e.g. two segments of a mid-ocean ridge). Transform faults often exhibit characteristics that distinguish them from transcurrent faults: (1) For transform faults formed at the same time as the faults they link, slip on the transform fault has equal magnitude at all points along the transform; slip magnitude on the transform fault can exceed the length of the transform fault, and slip does not decrease to zero at the fault termini. (2) For transform faults linking two similar features, e.g. if two mid-ocean ridge segments linked by a transform have equal spreading rates, then the length of the transform does not change as slip accrues on it. b. A type of plate boundary at which lithosphere is neither created or destroyed, and plates slide past each other on a strike-slip fault. Cf: transcurrent fault. Transcurrent fault: A type of strike-slip fault where (1) the magnitude of slip on the fault is less than the length of the fault; (2) fault displacement is greatest near the midpoint of the fault and is zero at the fault tips; (3) the fault progressively increases in length as its magnitude of slip increases; (4) the fault does not terminate at plate boundaries. Cf. transform fault. Reference: GLOSSARY OF GEOLOGY 4th Ed. Julia A. Jackson, Editor -- 完蛋了啦～要报告了啦～还在乡民版.... (╯‵□′)╯︵ ┴─┴ --
