Evaluation of relative active tectonics by using geomorphic indices of the Bamo anticline, Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt, Kurdistan Region of Iraq. [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
The Mountain Front Flexure forms a prominent morphotectonic structures along the Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt (ZFTB). It consists of several segments that defines tectonic salients and recessions within the belt.

Crustal deformation, active tectonics and seismic potential in the Sicily Channel (Central Mediterranean), along the Nubia-Eurasia plate boundary. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2020
Based on multidisciplinary data, including seismological and geodetic observations, as well as seismic reflection profiles and gravity maps, we analysed the pattern of crustal deformation and active tectonics in the Sicily Channel, a key observation ...

DEM Generation from GF-7 Satellite Stereo Imagery Assisted by Space-Borne LiDAR and Its Application to Active Tectonics

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
China’s first optical stereo mapping satellite with a sub-meter resolution, GaoFen-7 (GF-7), launched in November 2019, shows significant potential for providing high-resolution topographic and geomorphic data for quantitative research on active ...

Geospatial assessment of active tectonics using SRTM DEM-based morphometric approach for Meghalaya, India

open access: yesAll Earth, 2022
Meghalaya, situated over the Shillong Plateau in the northeastern region of India, is considered a seismo-tectonically active region because of the Indian-Eurasian convergence and rising since the Cenozoic era.

The role of space-based observation in understanding and responding to active tectonics and earthquakes. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2016
The quantity and quality of satellite-geodetic measurements of tectonic deformation have increased dramatically over the past two decades improving our ability to observe active tectonic processes. We now routinely respond to earthquakes using satellites,

Review on the Application of Airborne LiDAR in Active Tectonics of China: Dushanzi Reverse Fault in the Northern Tian Shan

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
High-resolution topographic data are fundamental for active tectonics studies. Within the last 2 decades, the airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) system provided a solution for the accurate and efficient acquisition of detailed geomorphic ...

Active Tectonics of the Mediterranean Region [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1972
Summary Examination of more than 100 fault plane solutions for earthquakes within the Alpide belt between the Mid-Atlantic ridge and Eastern Iran shows that the deformation at present occurring is the result of small continental plates moving away from Eastern Turkey and Western Iran.

Active tectonics in 4D high-resolution

open access: yesJournal of Structural Geology, 2018
With a little more than 100 years since the publication of seminal and field-defining investigations, active tectonics is still a relatively young sub-discipline of structural geology. This research field addresses the accumulation of strain due to plate

Assessment of Relative Active Tectonics in the Bozgoush Basin (SW of Caspian Sea)

open access: yesOpen Journal of Marine Science, 2017
Geomorphic indices are useful tools for studying relative active tectonics of a specific area. In this study, the relative active tectonics of Bozgoush region (NW of Iran) has been investigated based on Geomorphic indices.

Landslide Detection and Mapping Based on SBAS-InSAR and PS-InSAR: A Case Study in Gongjue County, Tibet, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The rock mass along the Jinsha River is relatively broken under complex geological action. Many ancient landslides were distributed along the Jinsha River in Gongjue County, which is very dangerous under the action of gravity, tectonic stress and river ...
