1. Tectonic Pre Stress

   Linked via "rock rheology"

   Tectonic pre-stress refers to the latent, non-elastic mechanical loading accumulated within the Earth's lithosphere ($\text{Earth's lithosphere}$), distinct from active tectonic stresses driving seismic events. It represents the residual strain state imprinted upon crustal and upper mantle materials following ancient or quasi-static deformation episodes, primarily influencing rock rheology and the propagation velocity of $P$-waves in non-active zones …
