Which phenomenon increases when locked transform faults rupture?

💡 Explanation

Surface wave propagation increases with transform fault rupture because seismic energy amplifies within lithosphere due to constructive interference, rather than attenuating as with P or S waves or changes to the Mohorovičić Discontinuity.
