We estimated horizontal velocities at 25 sites first surveyed in a 1901–1903 British Ordnance Survey triangulation and then resurveyed with GPS in 1994–1995 to identify Trinidad’s principal active on-land faults, quantify fault-slip-rates, and test for elastic locking. Our best-fit single-fault elastic dislocation model put 12 3 mm/yr of dextral strike-slip on the Central Range Fault (1–2 km lo...
