A Transient Coastal Uplift Event Revealed by Pleistocene Marine Terraces Along the 2015 M8.3 Illapel Earthquake Rupture, Chile

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Uplifted Pleistocene marine terraces in the Illapel area along the forearc of central Chile record spatially and temporally variable uplift rates on glacial‐cycle timescales. However, the underlying mechanisms for this uplift variability and its potential relationship with the megathrust‐earthquake cycle remain poorly understood.

Block Kinematics, Interseismic Coupling and Fault Slip Rates in the Aegean Region From GPS and Earthquake Slip Vector Data: 1. Upper Plate Structures

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We represent the active deformation of the Aegean region with an elastic‐kinematic block model composed of a finite number of rotating crustal blocks whose boundaries coincide with major active structures. A total of 832 GPS velocities and 146 earthquake slip vectors were inverted to provide estimates of block rotations and interseismic ...

Ongoing Deformation at the Southern Apennine Front: Insights from the Gulf of Taranto (Italy)

Geosciences
The Gulf of Taranto (Ionian Sea) is a key transitional sector between the Southern Apennines collisional belt and the Calabrian Arc system, where the expression of Pleistocene–Holocene deformation in the shallow stratigraphic record remains debated. This

Inference of a seismic gap from geological data: Thessaly ( Central Greece) as a case study

Annals of Geophysics, 1995
As a result of neotectonic, morphotectonic and seismotectonic research it is now possible to draw detailed maps of the major active faults affecting Thessaly, a large region of continental Greece.

Neotectonic-related landforms in the Campos do Jordão Plateau, Southeast Brazil

Derbyana, 2022
The Campos do Jordão Plateau, situated in the Serra da Mantiqueira – western flank of the Continental Rift of Southeastern Brazil, presents several morphological features that are indicative of neotectonic activity.

Anomalous Sample Detection Tool and Its Application in Identifying Interbasin Groundwater Flow in the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin, Tibetan Plateau

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Interbasin groundwater flow (IGF) is increasingly recognized as an important but difficult‐to‐diagnose component of regional groundwater flow systems. Recent studies highlight that major rifts within the Yarlung Zangbo River Basin (YZRB) may facilitate IGF, but the role of all six major rifts remains unclear.

Main morphotectonic characteristics of Asturias, Spain [PDF]

Geofísica Internacional, 2005
Asturias is part of one of the four morphotectonic mesoblocks that make up the Northern macroblock (Number 9) of the Iberian plate. The framework of territorial regionalization was developed on the basis of the methodology of Rantsman (1979) using ...
