The role of antithetic faults in transferring displacement across contractional relay zones on normal faults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Contractional relay zones between pairs of normal faults are sometimes associated with multiple antithetic faults in a geometry similar to that found in Riedel shear zones.

Liquefaction Behavior of Bushehr Coastal Carbonate Sand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Over the past few years, liquefaction phenomena have always been one of the challenging issues in geotechnical engineering. The occurrence of liquefaction is due to cyclic tensions resulting from zero effective stress in the soil mass.

Stress triggering of the 2022 Lushan–Maerkang earthquake sequence by historical events and its implication for fault stress evolution in eastern Tibet

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
It remains unknown how stress triggering causes earthquakes in the eastern Tibetan Plateau following the Wenchuan Earthquake in 2008. The MS 6.1 Lushan earthquake on 1 June 2022 in a seismic gap between the 2008 MW 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake and the 2013 MW

Imaging viscosity after the 2021 Mw 7.4 Maduo earthquake: Insights on the regional rheology variation beneath the Bayan Har block [PDF]

open access: yes
The rheology of Earth's lithosphere fundamentally governs tectonic processes and landscape evolution. Postseismic deformation following large earthquakes has been widely used to constrain rheological structures globally.

Influence of Structural Maturity on the Rupture Morphology of the Northern Alpine Fault, Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Alpine Fault (AF) in Aotearoa New Zealand is a fast‐slipping plate boundary fault late in its seismic cycle that presents a major source of seismic hazard. Past earthquakes have created a structural‐geomorphic record of surface ruptures that we map and analyze for the northern AF using 1,000 km2 ${\text{km}}^{2}$ of Light Detection and ...

Study on deformation characteristics and dynamic cause of the Luding MS6.8 earthquake

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
A MS6.8 earthquake struck Luding Country in Ganzi Prefecture, Sichuan Province on 5 September 2022. The earthquake occurred on the Moxi segment of Xianshuihe fault zone (XFZ), one of the most seismically active faults in the Chinese mainland.

Pre-quake frequency characteristics of Ms ≥7.0 earthquakes in mainland China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In this study, natural orthogonal expansion was performed on earthquake frequencies to compute the pre-quake frequency fields of 9 Ms ≥7.0 earthquakes in mainland China from 1980 to 2020.

Geodetic Strain Rates, Slip Deficit Rates, and Seismic Potential in the Tianshan, Central Asia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 22, 28 November 2025.
Abstract The Tianshan is an intracontinental orogenic belt that has experienced over 100 Mw ≥ 6 earthquakes since 1700. However, strain rates and slip deficit rates on mapped faults in this region—key factors in assessing its seismic potential—remain underexplored.
