Hi everyone, I did not go to the AGU meeting, but the second author presented our poster. If you scroll down there is a link to the eposter. This shows what we have been doing there. I also shows how 3/4 of the science is presented at this meeting:

Hi Chris. Please help me with a term - what is a "sub vertical fault"?

If I had to define it now, I'd say within 10 degrees of vertical. I think dip is gentle if 0 to 30 deg from horizontal, moderate of 30-60 deg, and steep if 60 to 90 deg.
