Small mammals from Vértesacsa as a contribution to chronology of the late Miocene Zagyva Formation (W Hungary) [PDF]
The small fossils (Rodentia and Eulipotyphla) from Csönget-Völgy near Vértesacsa in Western Hungary are pre¬sented herein; and although the assemblage contains relatively poor material, we describe nine rodent taxa and two insec¬tivore species.

Interseismic Coupling Along the Java‐Timor Subduction‐Collision Zone at East Indonesia
Abstract The Java‐Timor subduction‐collision zone is one of the most tectonically complicated structures along the strike of the Indonesia‐Australia convergence. This complexity makes it difficult to interpret observations of interseismic deformation. In this study, we simultaneously inverted 108 Global Positioning System velocities and 176 earthquake ...

Morphotectonics of the Padul-Nigüelas Fault Zone, southern Spain
The Padul-Nigüelas Fault Zone (PNFZ) is situated at the south-western mountain front of the Sierra Nevada (southern Spain) in the Internal Zone of the Betic Cordilleras and belongs to a NW-SE trending system of normal faults dipping SW.

Anatomy and tectonic significance of WNW-ESE and NE-SW lineaments at a transpressive plate boundary (Nubia-Iberia) [PDF]
Recent mapping of the Gulf of Cadiz seafloor permitted to identify major tectonic lineaments: the SWIM lineaments (Zitellini et al., 2009) and Cadiz lineament, striking WNW-ESE and NE-SW, respectively.

Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal [PDF]
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub-Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which marks the southern edge of the sub-Himalayan fold belt, is the only active ...

Pan‐European Landslide Risk Assessment: From Theory to Practice
Abstract Assessing landslide risk is a fundamental requirement to plan suitable prevention actions. To date, most risk studies focus on individual slopes or catchments. Whereas regional, national or continental scale assessments are hardly available because of methodological and/or data limitations.
