Relations Among Fault Behavior, Subsurface Geology, and Three-Dimensional Velocity Models
Science, 1991The development of three-dimensional P-wave velocity models for the regions surrounding five large earthquakes in California has lead to the recognition of relations among fault behavior and the material properties of the rocks that contact the fault at seismogenic depths; regions of high moment release appear to correlate with high seismic velocities ...

Surficial geology indicates early Holocene faulting and seismicity, central Sweden
International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2014In Sweden, knowledge of the location and timing of glacially induced faulting and seismicity is critical to effective engineering of a long-term nuclear disposal facility. To improve understanding and modeling of the complex ice-induced and tectonic stresses associated with glacially induced faulting, field studies detailing the location and timing of ...

Fault Rock Classification: An aid to structural interpretation in mine and exploration geology
South African Journal of Geology, 2003Faults are important to the economic geologist in that they can either control the formation of some classes of ore deposits or modify the position and geometry of ore bodies. Fault rock classification is an important part of understanding the structural

To fault or not to fault [PDF]
Nature Geoscience, 2010 Most of the oceanic crust has a simple layered structure. The discovery that slow-spreading ridges exhibit a comparatively complex crustal structure and some of the largest extensional faults on Earth is leading to the recognition of a new mode of seafloor spreading.

Quaternary Geology and Faulting in the Damxung‐Yangbajain Basin
Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, 2004Abstract The detailed geological mapping, conducted in the Damxung‐Yangbajain basin, shows that there are many types of deposits formed since the Pliocene. The oldest sediments are formed during the Pliocene. The most prominent sediments are three sets of moraines and fluvioglacial deposits.

Earthquake geology of the last millennium along the Boconó Fault, Venezuela
Tectonophysics, 2018Abstract The Holocene tectonic activity of Latin American countries is poorly constrained because of the short time span of the instrumental record and the lack of any seismic calendar during pre-colonization times. Therefore, some areas with low and diffused seismicity have been catalogued as a “seismic gap”.
