Abstract
Displacement on faults can be described using a power—law distribution with exponent D. To justify using a power—law, the relationship needs to be proved over several orders of magnitude. Offshore, faults with displacement >20m can be measured within Triassic rocks from seismic reflection profiles. Around the Moray Firth there is limited exposure of Triassic rocks which are continuous with the offshore basin. Faulted sections from Triassic sandstones were measured, with fault displacements varying from 1 to 500 mm. These seismic and field data are limited in both size and scale range.
