Evidence of Quaternary tectonics along Río Grande valley, southern Malargüe fold and thrust belt, Mendoza, Argentina [PDF]

, 2019
The Malargüe fold and thrust belt is developed in the Argentinian Andes between 34° and 37° S, through the tectonic inversion of Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic depocenters of the Neuquén Basin, with an uplift history since the Cretaceous.

Present-day stress orientations and tectonic provinces of the NW Borneo collisional margin [PDF]

, 2010
Extent: 15p.Borehole failure observed on image and dipmeter logs from 55 petroleum wells across the NW Borneo collisional margin were used to determine maximum horizontal stress (σH) orientations; combined with seismic and outcrop data, they define seven

Hazard assessment and formation mechanism of debris flow outbursts in a small watershed of the Linxia Basin

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Linxia Basin is located in the transition zone between the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau and the Loess Plateau in China. Collapse–landslide–debris flow geological disasters are particularly prevalent in this region.

Exploring Active Tectonics in the Dominican Republic [PDF]

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2010
The devastating 12 January 2010 Haiti earthquake (M = 7.0), which killed an estimated 230,000 people and caused extensive damage to homes and buildings, drew attention to the crucial need for improved knowledge of the active tectonics of the Caribbean region.

Geomorphometry and Statistical Analyses of Landslides Triggered by the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha Earthquake and the Mw 7.3 Aftershock, Nepal

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal and the Mw 7.3 aftershock triggered at least 22,914 landslides that each had areas ≥500 m2 and lengths and widths ≥20 m. Amongst these landslides, 2,059 had areas >10,000 m2.

Active Tectonics

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1987
Active Tectonics is a collection of 16 papers plus a section entitled “Overview and Recommendations.” These papers are meant to serve collectively as a report commissioned by the now defunct Geophysics Research Forum with responsibility passed on to the Geophysics Study Committee, who in turn formed the Panel on Active Tectonics to carry out the task ...

The Role of N2 as a Geo-Biosignature for the Detection and Characterization of Earth-like Habitats [PDF]

, 2019
Since the Archean, N2 has been a major atmospheric constituent in Earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen is an essential element in the building blocks of life, therefore the geobiological nitrogen cycle is a fundamental factor in the long term evolution of both ...

Extremely fast Holocene coastal landscape evolution in the Kachchh Upland (NW India): Clues from a multidisciplinary review

Journal of Maps, 2023
The coastal landscape of the Kachchh Upland (KU) region (NW-India) changed over the last few thousand years from a shallow marine gulf to a salty desert (1-4 meters asl).

European continuous active tectonic strain–stress map [PDF]

Tectonophysics, 2009
This paper shows a new continuous strain-stress map for Europe obtained from the direct inversion of earthquake focal mechanisms calculated from the centroid tensor method. A total of 1608 focal mechanisms have been selected with several quality criteria from different catalogues (CMT Harvard, ETH, Med-Net, I.G.N.
