Earthquake Geology of the Bulnay Fault (Mongolia) [PDF]
The Bulnay earthquake of 23 July 1905 (Mw 8.3–8.5), in north‐central Mongolia, is one of the world’s largest recorded intracontinental earthquakes and one of four great earthquakes that occurred in the region during the twentieth century. The 375 km long surface rupture of the left‐lateral, strike‐slip, N095°E‐trending Bulnay fault associated with this

The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip [PDF]
Abstract Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from top to bottom of lithospheric faults and plays an important role throughout the earthquake cycle.

Bedrock geology of DFDP‐2B, central Alpine Fault, New Zealand [PDF]
ABSTRACT During the second phase of the Alpine Fault, Deep Fault Drilling Project (DFDP) in the Whataroa River, South Westland, New Zealand, bedrock was encountered in the DFDP‐2B borehole from 238.5–893.2 m Measured Depth (MD). Continuous sampling and meso‐ to microscale characterisation of whole rock cuttings established that, in ...

Earthquake Geology of the Lembang Fault, West Java, Indonesia
Abstract The Lembang Fault is a major fault in western Java that skirts the northern edge of Bandung, one of Indonesia's largest cities, just south of the active Tangkuban Perahu volcano. Although it has no recorded or historical large earthquakes, the Lembang Fault shows obvious geomorphic evidence of recent activity and has long been thought to be ...

Earthquake geology of the Mondy fault (SW Baikal Rift, Siberia)
The Mondy Fault is a 90 km long E-W trending active structure belonging to the southwestern part of the Baikal rift system, connecting the Tunka depression to the East to the Hovsgol rift to the West. The fault is well expressed in the morphology and formed during the Neogene within a transtensional strain regime (left-lateral + normal ...
