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 ...

Active Tectonics of the Pyrenees: A review

open access: yesJournal of Iberian Geology, 2012
The Pyrenees have experienced at least seven earthquakes with magnitude M > 5 in the last 400 years. During the last decades, several seismotectonic, neotectonic and paleoseismological studies have focused on identifying the main active structures of the areas experiencing damaging earthquakes.

Effects of Seismogenic Faults on the Predictive Mapping of Probability to Earthquake-Triggered Landslides

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2019
The seismogenic fault is crucial for spatial prediction of co-seismic landslides, e.g., in logistic regression (LR) analysis considering influence factors.

Mechanism of the Donghekou landslide triggered by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake revealed by discrete element modeling [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014
The huge Donghekou landslide was triggered by the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 with about 2.4 × 107 m3 of rock displaced. The landslide is considered as an example of an earthquake-induced "ejection" event, where dislocated slope materials was expelled ...

Active tectonics deduced from geomorphic indices and its implication on economic development of water resources in South-Eastern part of Mikir massif, Assam, India

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes, 2020
The geomorphic analysis of mountain fronts and related drainage networks can provide valuable insights about the recorded tectonic history of any given region especially when the area shows higher seismic activity in recent times. Therefore, such studies
