Holocene Hydrological Changes Inferred from Alluvial Stream Entrenchment in North Tian Shan (Northwestern China) [PDF]

, 2004
We analyze the possible contribution of climate change or tectonics on fluvial incision from the study of a case example along the northern flank of Tian Shan.

Contrasting sedimentary and long-lasting geochemical imprints of seismic shaking in a small, groundwater-fed lake basin (Klopeiner See, Eastern European Alps)

Sedimentologika
In slowly deforming tectonic settings (e.g., European Alps), large earthquakes occur too infrequently to be adequately represented in instrumental and historical records. This leads to uncertainties and inaccuracies of seismic hazard estimations.

Evidencias paleosísmicas y geomorfológicas de actividad tectónica reciente de la Falla de Pozohondo (Cordillera Bética, SE de España) [PDF]

Instrumental and historical seismicity in the Albacete province (External Prebetic Zone) has been scarcely recorded. However, major strike-slip faults showing NW-SE trending provide geomorphologic and paleoseismic evidence of recent tectonic activity ...

Reconstructing paleoseismic deformation, 2: 1000 years of great earthquakes at Chucalén, south central Chile [PDF]

, 2014
In this paper we adopt a quantitative biostratigraphic approach to establish a 1000-year-long coastal record of megathrust earthquake and tsunami occurrence in south central Chile.

Subaqueous landslides at the distal basin of Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina): Towards a tsunami hazard evaluation in Northern Patagonian lakes [PDF]

, 2018
The May 22nd, 1960 Valdivia earthquake, Chile (Mw 9.5) triggered a series of subaqueous mass-wasting processes (debris flows and slides) in Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina), generating a tsunami-like wave that hit the coasts of San Carlos de Bariloche ...

Diurnal and semidiurnal cyclicity of Radon (222Rn) in groundwater, Giardino Spring, Central Apennines, Italy [PDF]

, 2018
Understanding natural variations of Rn (222Rn) concentrations is the fundamental prerequisite of using this radioactive gas as a tracer, or even precursor, of natural processes, including earthquakes. In this work, Rn concentrations in groundwater were

Impact of Anaerobic Cold Storage on Subseafloor Microbial Communities

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Sediment cores recovered from the deep sea often cannot be sampled for microbiological analysis immediately due to the need for core splitting and processing for subsequent onboard measurements and core storage. Consequently, sections are often stored at 4°C under anaerobic conditions for extended periods.

Strike‐Slip Fault‐Generated Paleotsunamis in Lake Iznik (NW Türkiye): Numerical Modeling Corroborated by Coastal Deposits

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 18, 28 September 2025.
Abstract Strike‐slip faults in lacustrine environments present overlooked tsunamigenic potential. For the first time, we have reconstructed paleotsunamis triggered by strike‐slip faulting with a dip‐slip component that ruptured the lake floor. This study focuses on Lake Iznik (Türkiye), located along the middle strand of the North Anatolian Fault (MNAF)

Deciphering Pleistocene Fault Activity in the Eastern Alps: Dating Fault Gouges With Electron Spin Resonance and Optically Stimulated Luminescence

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Eastern Alps have been influenced by post‐collisional indentation tectonics since the Miocene. Currently, Adria‐Europe convergence, albeit slow, is accommodated and distributed across several faults. The seismogenic potential of some of these faults is unclear. We applied optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and electron spin resonance (

The 600 yr eruptive history of Villarrica Volcano (Chile) revealed by annually laminated lake sediments [PDF]

, 2014
Lake sediments contain valuable information about past volcanic and seismic events that have affected the lake catchment, and they provide unique records of the recurrence interval and magnitude of such events.
