Active tectonics in 4D high-resolution
Journal 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

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

Active Tectonics of the Mediterranean Region [PDF]
Geophysical 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.

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

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

Geomorphic signatures and active tectonics in western Saurashtra, Gujarat, India
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2023 Active tectonics in an area includes ongoing or recent geologic events. This paper investigates the tectonic in fl uence on the subsidence, uplift and tilt of western Saurashtra through morphotectonic analysis of ten watersheds along with characteristics ...
