Seismic stratigraphy of Lago Fagnano sediments (Tierra del Fuego, Argentina) - A potencial archive of paleoclimatic change and tectonic activity since the Late Glacial [PDF]

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2008
Located at 54ºS in the heart of the Island of Tierra del Fuego, Lago Fagnano occupies the deepest of a chain of en-echelon tectonic depressions along the Magallanes-Fagnano Transform system (MFT).

Paleoseismological analysis of late Miocene lacustrine successions in the Prebetic Zone, SE Spain [PDF]

open access: yesActa geológica hispánica, 2001
[ES] El estudio paleosismológico en las cuencas neógenas (Mioceno superior) lacustres del Prebético de Albacete ha sido abordado mediante un enfoque multidisciplinar para poder extrapolar los datos paleosímicos a la actualidad. Dicho enfoque integra las siguientes disciplinas: estratigrafía, análisis estructural, análisis de la sismicidad y ...

Magnitude and source area estimations of severe prehistoric earthquakes in the western Austrian Alps [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
In slowly deforming intraplate tectonic regions such as the Alps only limited knowledge exists on the occurrence of severe earthquakes, their maximum possible magnitude, and their potential source areas.

Combined On-Fault and Off-Fault Paleoseismic Evidence in the Postglacial Infill of the Inner-Alpine Lake Achensee (Austria, Eastern Alps)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The Eastern European Alps are characterized by slow active deformation with low- to moderate seismicity. Recurrence rates of severe earthquakes exceed the time span of historical documentation.

Geological Criteria for Evaluating seismicity revisited: Forty Years of Paleoseismic Investigations and the Natural Record of Past Earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The identifi cation of individual past earthquakes and their characterization in time and space, as well as in magnitude, can be approached in many different ways with a large variety of methods and techniques, using a wide spectrum of objects and ...

San Andreas Fault Earthquake Chronology and Lake Cahuilla History at Coachella, California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The southernmost ~100 km of the San Andreas fault has not ruptured historically. It is imperative to determine its rupture history to better predict its future behavior.

Comparison of geodetic and geologic data from the Wasatch region, Utah, and implications for the spectral character of Earth deformation at periods of 10 to 10 million years [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Wasatch fault and adjacent fault zones provide an opportunity to compare present-day deformation rate estimates obtained from space geodesy with geologic displacement rates over at least four temporal windows, ranging from the last millennium up to ...

Geologic context of geodetic data across a Basin and Range normal fault, Crescent Valley, Nevada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Geodetic strain and late Quaternary faulting in the Basin and Range province is distributed over a region much wider than historic seismicity, which is localized near the margins of the province.

Paleoseismic History of the Dead Sea Fault Zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
International audienceThe aim of this entry is to describe the DSF as a transform plate boundary pointing out the rate of activedeformation, fault segmentation, and geometrical complexities as a control of earthquake ruptures.
