“…Permanent forearc deformation is evidenced by instrumental crustal seismicity (e.g., Balfour et al, 2011;Bostock et al, 2019;Brocher et al, 2017;Savard et al, 2018;G. Li et al, 2018), paleoseismic studies of Quaternary-active forearc faults (Barrie & Greene, 2018;Bennett et al, 2017;Blais-Stevens et al, 2011;Blakely et al, 2009;Duckworth et al, 2021;Greene & Barrie, 2022;Harrichhausen et al, 2021;Kelsey et al, 2012;Morell et al, 2017Morell et al, , 2018Nelson et al, 2017;Personius et al, 2014;Schermer et al, 2021), and paleomagnetic, geologic, and geodetic data that show counterclockwise rotation of the Cascadia forearc north of, and margin-parallel shortening south of, the Strait of JdF (Finley et al, 2019;Mazzotti et al, 2002Mazzotti et al, , 2003McCaffrey et al, 2007;Miller et al, 2001;Prothero et al, 2008;Wells & McCaffrey, 2013).…”
