Active Tectonics of Central Asia
Geotectonics, 2021Central Asia exceeds neighboring territories in the intensity of Quaternary uplifts and active faulting. The active fault kinematics differ in the northeast of the region, from Middle Tibet to Eastern Sayan, and its southern and western parts, including the Himalayas, the Pamir–Punjab syntaxis, and the region north of Gorny and Mongolian Altai.

Geomorphic assessment of active tectonics in Jaisalmer basin (Western Rajasthan, India)
Geocarto International, 2022The northwestern part of Indian plate consists of a number of sedimentary basins such as the Jaisalmer basin with Early Jurassic to Quaternary deposits.

The Western Cameroon Highland margin: Is there any geomorphometric evidence of active tectonics?
Geological Journal, 2022The Western Cameroon Highland margin (WCHM) within the West African margin displays an uneven high relief. Its evolutionary model in vogue suggests the tectonic activity of the Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL).

Structural-geological and seismoacoustic studies carried out in 1989–94 within the Baikal Rift Zone show for the first time the internal active tectonic structure of the present Baikal Rift lake basin. A series of small structural features are distinguished not only by morphology but also by the degree of recent activity.

From an interpretation of Landsat imagery of Tibet the most recent structures appear to be normal faults that trend approximately north‐south. Fault plane solutions of 14 earthquakes in the central part of the Tibetan plateau indicate large components of normal faulting.

Quaternary tectonic activity in Scotland
Geological Society, London, Engineering Geology Special Publications, 1991Abstract The main features of seven faults inferred to have been active during the Quaternary in Scotland are summarized and their significance in terms of possible tectonic explanations is discussed. One fault in Glen Roy (Central Highlands) is described in detail and evidence is presented for changing stress fields inferred from modes of ...

Nearly 90 mm a−1 of relative plate convergence is absorbed in the Andean plate-boundary zone. The pattern of active tectonics shows remarkable variations in the way in which the plate slip vector is partitioned into displacement and strain and the ways in which compatibility between different segments is solved.

Tectonically Active Landscapes
Environmental and Engineering Geoscience, 2011OK, I admit that I am a hard-rock geologist by training, and that I do not have formal education in geomorphology. However, my career has led me into seismic hazards assessment, where I have gained appreciation and respect for geomorphic methods used in assessing the age of fault movements (this from a person who once considered everything younger than
