The Lenglongling fault located in the northeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau plays an important role in accommodating the tectonic deformation of the Tibetan Plateau relative to the Gobi–Ala Shan platform to the north and the North China craton to the ...

Morphotectonics of the central Muertos thrust belt and Muertos Trough (northeastern Caribbean) [PDF]
Multibeam bathymetry data acquired during the 2005 Spanish R/V Hespérides cruise and reprocessed multichannel seismic profiles provide the basis for the analysis of the morphology and deformation in the central Muertos Trough and Muertos thrust belt ...

Abstract The spatial distribution of seismicity in active fault zones depends primarily on the geometry of the fault networks. However, recent advances suggest that seismic activity may also be controlled by the rheology of the geological units surrounding fault zones. In the present work, we use seismological and geological analyses to investigate the

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

Neotectónica e períodos de recorrência de grandes sismos e tsunamis na margem SW Ibérica e Golfo de Cádis [PDF]
Neste trabalho usámos o método numérico das placas finas (Bird, 1999) para modelar a Neotectónica no Golfo de Cadiz e estimar os períodos de recorrência de grandes sismos e tsunamis.

New geomorphic criteria on lateral propagation of blind thrust-related fold growth accommodating oblique convergence [PDF]
International audienceThe aim of this contribution is to show the styles of growing anticlines and the ways in which they accommodate oblique convergence through proximal foreland basins and intramontane basins.

Morphotectonic Analysis between Crete and Kasos
The morphotectonic structure of the offshore area lying between Crete and Kasos is studied on the basis of new detailed bathymetric data. The resulting bathymetric map is presented. Qualitative analysis of morphological slope values, as well as the analysis of the watershed at the eastern part of Crete, confirms that the current seabed topographic ...

Abstract The Hellenic forearc is one of the least understood forearc systems globally due to limited availability of high‐resolution imagery of its deep structure, especially landward of the Mediterranean Ridge. Here, we combine widely spaced high‐resolution multichannel seismic‐reflection profiles with seafloor morpho‐bathymetric analysis and ...
