Geomorphic signatures and active tectonics in western Saurashtra, Gujarat, India
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 ...

Near-surface termination of upward-propagating strike-slip ruptures on the Yangsan Fault, Korea
We present a new example of the termination of strike-slip paleoearthquake ruptures in near-surface regions on the Yangsan Fault, Korea, based on multi-scale structural observations.

Lithospheric Deformation and Active Tectonics of the NW Himalayas, Hindukush, and Tibet
The Himalayan Mountain System (HMS) and the Tibetan Plateau (TP) represent an active mountain belt, with continent-continent collision. Geological and geophysical (seismological modeling, seismic reflection, and gravity) data is reviewed herein for an ...
