Characteristics and Tectonic Implications of the Geomorphic Indices of the Watersheds Around the Lijiang–Jinpingshan Fault [PDF]
Remote SensingThe Lijiang–Jinpingshan fault (LJF) is an important secondary boundary fault that obliquely cuts the Sichuan–Yunnan rhombic block. It is of great significance for understanding the tectonic evolution of the Sichuan–Yunnan rhombic block and even the ...

Neotectonics assessment using geomorphic indices: A study from the passive continental margin of India [PDF]
Geology, Ecology, and LandscapesThe response of landforms to tectonic deformative processes can be effectively understood by using geomorphic indices. The objective of this study is to evaluate the extent of neotectonic activities in the fourth-order sub-basins of a tropical river ...

Active Tectonics Assessment Using Geomorphic and Drainage Indices in the Sertengshan, Hetao Basin, China [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2023 Geomorphic parameters, which reflect the migration of drainage divide responses, are widely used to assess tectonic activity. There have been several large earthquakes in the history of the Hetao Basin, within which the Sertengshan Piedmont Fault is ...

Surface deformation of northeastern Taiwan revealed by geomorphic indices
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2023 In northeast Taiwan, many areas are affected by various tectonic forcings. Some areas appear to have a subsidence tendency, whereas others reflect uplift activities on the surface, due to tectonic northward compressive forcing growth and decline.

Relative tectonic activity assessment of the Northern Sumatran Fault using geomorphic indices
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 Geomorphic indices have widely been applied to assess relative tectonic activity. The relative tectonic activity is mainly associated with relative uplift and long-term tectonic deformation.

The application of geomorphic indices in terrain analysis for ground engineering practice [PDF]
Engineering Geology, 2017 Abstract Terrain analysis studies for long linear engineering projects provide critical engineering geological and geomorphological data that inform project design options, route selection and construction methodologies. This paper introduces the use of geomorphic indices alongside methods of aerial photograph interpretation and remote sensing in the
