Scale-dependent influence of pre-existing basement shear zones on rift faulting : a case study from NE Brazil [PDF]
, 2013 Rifting of continental crust initiates faults that are commonly influenced by pre-existing structures. We document newly identified faults cutting Precambrian units in the interior of the NE Brazilian margin to assess the effects of structural ...

Strike-slip fault terminations at seismogenic depths : the structure and kinematics of the Glacier Lakes fault, Sierra Nevada United States [PDF]
, 2008 Structural complexity is common at the terminations of earthquake surface ruptures; similar deformation may therefore be expected at the end zones of earthquake ruptures at depth.

RECENT GEODYNAMICS OF FAULT ZONES: FAULTING IN REAL TIME SCALE
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 Recent deformation processes taking place in real time are analyzed on the basis of data on fault zones which were collected by long-term detailed geodetic survey studies with application of field methods and satellite monitoring.A new category of recent

Fault and magmatic interaction within Iceland's western rift over the last 9kyr [PDF]
, 2003 We present high-resolution 'Chirp' sub-bottom profiler data from Thingvallavatn, a lake in Iceland's western rift zone. These data are combined with stratigraphic constraints from sediment cores to show that movement on normal faults since 9 ka are ...

Modelling the effects of normal faulting on alluvial river meandering [PDF]
, 2022 The meandering of alluvial rivers may be forced by normal faulting due to tectonically altered topographic gradients of the river valley and channel at and near the fault zone.

Geomorphological insight into changing tectonic regime, Pasinler Basin, Turkey [PDF]
, 2008 The Pasinler Basin, in the East Anatolian Contractional Province, features a suite of geomorphological zones, visible in the field, air photographs and Landsat and SRTM DEM imagery. These zones reflect past and current tectonically influenced processes.
