Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Dead Sea Transform (DST) fault system, also sometimes referred to as the Dead Sea Rift, is a geologic fault which extends through the Jordan River Valley in the Middle East. It runs along the boundary of two tectonic plates, the African Plate on the west and the Arabian Plate on the east. It is a left lateral transform fault, signifying the relative motions of the two plates. Both plates are moving in a general north-northeast direction, but the Arabian Plate is moving faster, resulting in the observed left lateral motions along the fault of approximately 107 km. A component of extension is also present, which has contributed to the depression, or pull apart basin in which the Dead Sea is situated.
