a depth profile of the stress the lithosphere can support, combining frictional sliding at shallow depth with temperature-dependent creep below.

In tectonics, yield strength envelope refers to a depth profile of the stress the lithosphere can support, combining frictional sliding at shallow depth with temperature-dependent creep below. This meaning comes from Brace (1980) in Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth.[1]
