Probabilistic Assessment of Slip Rates and Their Variability Over Time of Offshore Buried Thrusts: A Case Study in the Northern Adriatic Sea

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021
When sedimentation rates overtake tectonic rates, the detection of ongoing tectonic deformation signatures becomes particularly challenging. The Northern Apennines orogen is one such case where a thick Plio-Pleistocene foredeep sedimentary cover blankets

Seismicity relocation and fault structure near the Leech River Fault Zone, southern Vancouver Island [PDF]

, 2018
Relatively low rates of seismicity and fault loading have made it challenging to correlate microseismicity to mapped surface faults on the forearc of southern Vancouver Island.

Millennial slip rate of the Longitudinal Valley fault from river terraces: Implications for convergence across the active suture of eastern Taiwan [PDF]

, 2006
The Longitudinal Valley fault is a key element in the active tectonics of Taiwan. It is the principal structure accommodating convergence across one of the two active sutures of the Taiwan orogeny.

Remote sensing interpretation and analysis of key engineering geological problems in the Nalati Mountain crossing section of the Yining-Aksu Railway

地质科技通报, 2023
The Yining-Aksu Railway needs to cross the Tianshan Mountains twice from north to south. The natural climate and geological environment are harsh and complex at the crossing section of Nalati Mountain on the north side.

Expeditionary research on the Kronotsky Peninsula

Вестник Камчатской региональной ассоциации "Учебно-научный центр". Серия: Науки о Земле, 2023
The sublatitudinal active fault on the Kronotsky Peninsula (Kamchatka) has been studied. The deformations of the Holocene soil-pyroclastic cover opened by the trench indicate reverse vertical movements along the fault plane.

Geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation in a normal fault segment boundary, central Greece [PDF]

, 2004
The geometry, kinematics and rates of deformation within a fault segment boundary between the ends of two major active normal fault segments have been investigated through examination of a faulted 126 ka marine terrace.

Late Quaternary faulting and paleoearthquakes along the northern section of the Bayanhaote fault and their implications for regional seismotectonics

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Analysis of the late Quaternary activity and paleoseismicity of the Bayanhaote fault is critical because it is part of the frontier of the propagating Tibetan Plateau and the boundary between the Alxa and Ordos blocks, and the development of a regional ...

Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal [PDF]

, 2000
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub-Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which marks the southern edge of the sub-Himalayan fold belt, is the only active ...

Stratigraphic and structural evidence of transpressional Quaternary fault reactivation along the SE Korean Peninsula

Quaternary Science Advances
Comprehending the nature, extent, and distribution of seismogenic structures, along with their seismogenic potential to induce destructive earthquakes in low seismic strain regions, holds significant socio-economic significance.
