Scheme of periodization of faulting stages in the Earth's crust of the Ukrainian shield - new data
Геофизический журнал, 2014 On the basis of petrological study and reference isotopic geochronological age determinations of Precambrian rocks of the Ukrainian shield (USh), published lately, a refined geochronological scale of stages of deformation (faulting) of the Earth's crust ...

Sea Beam Survey of an Active Strike-Slip Fault: The San Clemente Fault in the California Continental Borderland [PDF]
, 1989 The San Clemente fault, located in the California Continental Borderland, is an active, northwest trending, right-lateral, wrench fault. Sea Beam data are used to map the major tectonic landforms associated with active submarine faulting in detail ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020 The existence, or not, of periodicities in abyssal hill morphology has been vigorously debated in recent publications, and some have hypothesized that such periodicities are evidence of the impact of Milankovitch cycle‐caused sea level fluctuations on ...

Regularities of crustal faulting and tectonophysical indicators of fault metastability
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2018 The problem of forecasting seismic hazards is discussed. The stress state data characterizing various aspects of brittle failure are reviewed in detail. It is shown that the most convenient tool for analyzing such data is the Mohr stress diagram and the ...

The 1980, 1997 and 1998 Azores earthquakes and its seismotectonic implications [PDF]
, 2007 We have studied the focal mechanisms of the 1980, 1997 and 1998 earthquakes in the Azores region from body-wave inversion of digital GDSN (Global Digital Seismograph Network) and broadband data. For the 1980 and 1998 shocks, we have obtained strike– slip

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 ...

The Internal Structural Evolution of Calderas: Results from 3D Discrete Element Simulations
Geosciences, 2019 The structural evolution of calderas is a key issue in volcanology and has profound implications for hazard analysis and the exploitation of geothermal energy and hydrothermal ores.

Earthquake faulting in subduction zones: insights from fault rocks in accretionary prisms
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2014 Subduction earthquakes on plate-boundary megathrusts accommodate most of the global seismic moment release, frequently resulting in devastating damage by ground shaking and tsunamis.

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 New earthquake focal mechanism and centroid depth estimates show that the deformation style in the forelands of the Andes is spatially correlated with rift systems that stretched the South American lithosphere in the Mesozoic.
