Schematic showing the effect of changing the angle of dip along three model strike-slip faults. The dark green line shows the bending that results at the base of a fault when dip is changed, even when the surface fault (in light green) appears straight. Dip variations over shorter distances led to more fault distortion at depth. Figure from Lozos et al.( 2021).
