Morphotectonics of Kremenets Mountains
The aim of this work is the analysis and interpretation of the results of morphotectonic analysis of the territory of the Kremenets Mountains in order to study its neotectonic history and to identify the regional morphotectonic differences. The methods of the reconstruction of the post-Sarmatic planation surface and lineament analysis were used for ...

Deformation and Sediment Provenance of the Forearc Basin in the Central Andes of Southern Peru
Abstract The linkages between the development of the forearc regions and the accompanying retroarc in contractional mountain belts remain unclear. In the central Andes of southern Peru, new results constrain the timing of deformation and the provenance of forearc basin fill during Cenozoic mountain building.

Geomorphic study of seismically active areas using remote sensing data. Case of the Gorny Altai (Siberia) affected by the 2003 Altai earthquake [PDF]
This paper shows that a multitemporal, multiscale, and multisource remote sensing dataset represents an efficient tool for studying morphotectonics in seismically active areas, with an application in Siberia.

Abstract Understanding the relationship between surface and deep geological processes in tectonically active settings is crucial for unraveling the factors controlling landscape evolution and topographic growth. Here, we present the first basin‐averaged 10Be‐derived denudation rates for the Albanides, a subduction orogen in the Central Mediterranean ...

Anatomy of the Right‐Lateral Strike‐Slip Cephalonia Fault to the Western Hellenic Arc Frontal Thrust
Abstract The region offshore the Ionian Islands (Kefalonia or Cephalonia, Lefkada, Zakynthos, and Ithaca), western Greece, is characterized by very high seismogenic and tsunamigenic potential. Despite numerous studies, many questions remain regarding the structures and kinematics in this area.

Characteristics of direct human impacts on the rivers Karun and Dez in lowland south-west Iran and their interactions with earth surface movements [PDF]
Two of the primary external factors influencing the variability of major river systems, over river reach scales, are human activities and tectonics.

Abstract Fault systems of various geometries develop into accretionary wedges to accommodate slip partitioning of plate convergence in oblique settings. However, how they form, evolve and contribute to the segmentation of the megathrust is still poorly understood. The Barbados accretionary wedge, which results from the subduction of the American plates
