Transform fault earthquakes in the North Atlantic: Source mechanisms and depth of faulting [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The centroid depths and source mechanisms of 12 large earthquakes on transform faults of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge were determined from an inversion of long-period body waveforms.

Interactions between Cenozoic tectonics and landscape dynamics in Londrina, Paraná, Brazil

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Geomorfologia
The Londrina City, located in southern Brazil, is situated on the basalt of the Paraná Igneous Province (PIP), near tectonic structures such as the Guaxupé faults and the São Jerônimo-Curiúva and São Sebastião lineaments, with a history of reactivation ...

The Storfjorden, Svalbard, Earthquake Sequence 2008–2020: Transtensional Tectonics in an Arctic Intraplate Region

open access: yesSeismological Research Letters, 2021
AbstractAn earthquake sequence in the Storfjorden offshore area southwest of Spitsbergen in the Svalbard archipelago initiated with a 21 February 2008 magnitude Mw 6.1 event. This area had previously not produced any significant earthquakes, but between 2008 and 2020, a total of ∼2800 earthquakes were detected, with ∼16 of them being of moderate size ...

A 10-m vertical displacement on the Romanian Black Sea coast during modern history

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
Sea level reconstructions in the Black Sea basin and elsewhere rely on the identification of sea level markers and on the understanding of their post-genetic vertical movements.

Elevated Asthenospheric Temperature Driving the Partial Melting of Enriched Lithospheric Mantle Feeding the DM‐EM1 Mixing‐Type Magmatism of the Jingpohu Volcano in Eastern NE China: Evidence From Teleseismic P‐Wave Attenuation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract The origin of a binary‐mixing of DM and EM1 sources for the Cenozoic intraplate volcanism in eastern Northeast China is yet unclear. Seismic attenuation imaging is a tool that can shed light on this question. Here we present the first map of teleseismic P‐wave attenuation across Northeast China.

Improving the Knowledge on Seismogenic Sources in the Lower Tagus Valley for Seismic Hazard Purposes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Lower Tagus Valley, that includes the metropolitan area of Lisbon, has been struck by several earthquakes which produced significant material damage and loss of lives. Their exact location remains unknown.

Cenozoic Reactivation of the Penacova-Régua-Verin and Manteigas-Vilariça-Bragança Fault Systems (Iberian Peninsula): Implication in Their Seismogenic Potential

open access: yesGeosciences
The Penacova-Régua-Verin (PRV) and the Manteigas-Vilariça-Bragança (MVB) are two of the longest faults of the Iberian Peninsula. These faults striking NNE–SSW, over lengths of >200 km, were developed during late-Variscan Orogeny and reactivated in ...

SECULAR CHANGES IN RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN PLATE-TECTONIC AND MANTLE-PLUME ENGENDERED PROCESSES DURING PRECAMBRIAN TIME

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2016
Paradoxically, the lists of “proxies” of both plate- and plume-related settings are devoid of even a mention of the high-grade metamorphic rocks (granulite, amphibolite and high-temperature eclogite facies).

STRUCTURAL AND DYNAMIC DISTRIBUTION PATTERNS OF OIL FIELDS IN THE CENTRAL PART OF THE VOLGA-URAL ANTECLISE

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2020
Tectonical and development features of the central part of the Volga-Ural anteclise and the Sura-Kama (SK) shear zone are considered in connection with the distribution patterns of oil fields. Based on the geological and structural data, it is found that
