Abstract
This review is principally concerned with theoretical models of crustal deformation developed during this quadrennium. Observational data, as well as topics in lithospheric flexure and isostasy, are covered in companion reviews in this volume. Progress has been made toward constructing both new inelastic, and inhomogeneous elastic, models of earthquake‐induced crustal deformation. Most of the inelastic models involve dislocations or Green's functions in an elastic or anelastic lithosphere which overlies a Maxwell viscoelastic asthenosphere.
