Analysis of fault slip potential of active faults in Tangshan seismic region after the Tohoku-Oki 3.11 M9.0 earthquake based on in situ stress monitoring data

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
In order to ascertain the impact of the Tohoku-Oki 3.11 M9.0 earthquake on the stability of the faults in the Tangshan seismic region, we investigated the adjustment of the in situ stress field of the seismic region after this earthquake based on in situ

Active tectonics in Sabah – seismicity and active faults [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia, 2017
The location of Sabah near the boundaries of three major tectonic plates, the Eurasian, India-Australia and Philippine-Pacific plates, makes it prone to seismic activities. Sabah is currently under a WNW-ESE compressive stress regime due to the effect of

Tube coalescence in the Jingfudong lava tube and implications for lava flow hazard of Tengchong volcanism

open access: yesInternational Journal of Speleology, 2016
Tube-fed structure occurs as a general phenomenon in Tengchong basic lavas, such as lava tubes, lava plugs and tube-related collapse depressions. We deduced the development of Laoguipo lava flows, which is the longest lava tube (Jingfudong lava tube ...

Active Tectonics Assessment Using Geomorphic and Drainage Indices in the Sertengshan, Hetao Basin, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Geomorphic parameters, which reflect the migration of drainage divide responses, are widely used to assess tectonic activity. There have been several large earthquakes in the history of the Hetao Basin, within which the Sertengshan Piedmont Fault is ...

The Ability of Significant Tidal Stress to Initiate Plate Tectonics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Plate tectonics is a geophysical process currently unique to Earth, has an important role in regulating the Earth's climate, and may be better understood by identifying rocky planets outside our solar system with tectonic activity.
