Structural geology

the division of oblique plate convergence into near-normal thrusting on the subduction interface and margin-parallel strike-slip faulting inland.

In structural geology, slip partitioning refers to the division of oblique plate convergence into near-normal thrusting on the subduction interface and margin-parallel strike-slip faulting inland. This meaning comes from Fitch (1972) in Journal of Geophysical Research.[1]
