The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip [PDF]

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018
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 ...

Bedrock geology of DFDP-2B, central Alpine Fault, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 2017
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 sequence, the borehole ...

Petroleum geology controlled by extensive detachment thinning of continental margin crust: A case study of Baiyun sag in the deep-water area of northern South China Sea

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2018
The relationships between crustal stretching and thinning, basin structure and petroleum geology in Baiyun deep-water area were analyzed using large area 3D seismic, gravity, magnetic, ocean bottom seismic (OBS), deep-water exploration wells and ...

Fault-zone geology: lessons from drilling through the Nojima and Chelungpu faults [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Society, London, Special Publications, 2011
Abstract Several drilling projects have been conducted through active faults with the aim of learning about the geology of the fault zones and tentatively correlating the structure and mineralogy of the fault zones with their seismological behaviour during recent earthquakes.

Earthquake geology of the Bulnay Fault (Mongolia) [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Seismological Society of America, 2009
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

Characterizing Concealed Fault Systems by Integrating Field Data Mapping and Laboratory Experiments: A Case Study of the Huawa Area in East China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Concealed faults can be important for understanding the regional structural geology and the subsurface fluid distribution. However, such faults are usually difficult to identify and characterize because of their small size and complex mechanism.

Mountain biodiversity and ecosystem functions: interplay between geology and contemporary environments

open access: yesThe ISME Journal, 2020
Although biodiversity and ecosystem functions are strongly shaped by contemporary environments, such as climate and local biotic and abiotic attributes, relatively little is known about how they depend on long-term geological processes.

Earthquake geology: science, society and critical facilities

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2014
Earthquake geology studies the effects, the mechanics and the impacts of earthquakes in the geological environment. Its role is also to decode the fault history, therefore its approach is fault specific and its outcomes are of decisive value for seismic ...

Superficial simplicity of the 2010 El Mayor–Cucapah earthquake of Baja California in Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The geometry of faults is usually thought to be more complicated at the surface than at depth and to control the initiation, propagation and arrest of seismic ruptures.
