Neotectonics and inferred movements in Canada [PDF]

open access: diamondBulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1988
Neotectonic movements in Canada are due to a variety of causes. Within the Canadian Shield (craton) postglacial rebound appears to be the main contributor.

Neotectonic related geological risk at dams in the Mexico Basin: Guadalupe dam [PDF]

open access: hybridGeofísica Internacional, 2004
Three available tectonic models for the Mexico Basin were analyzed. Based on these models a new tectonic model was developed. Engineering structures were identified that could suffer the effects of seismic activity.Guadalupe Dam case is an example of ...

Characteristics, types, main causes and development of high-position geohazard chains along the Jiali fault zone, Tibet, China

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao, 2021
High-position geohazard chains are widely distributed along the Jiali fault zone, Tibet, China. They often induced severe flood disasters in the river basins of the Yigong Zangbu, Palong Zangbu, and the downstream of Yalu Zangbu, such as the famous ...

2019 Mw 6.0 Mesetas (Colombia) Earthquake Sequence: Insights From Integrating Seismic and Morphostructural Observations

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 9, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The boundary between the Northern Andean block and the South American plate is a first‐order tectonic structure in Colombia with historically M > 7 earthquakes. However, details about individual sections of the system remain unknown. We illuminate the seismotectonic of the Algeciras fault by investigating an earthquake sequence that started on

Diverse Deformation Mechanisms and Lithologic Controls in an Active Orogenic Wedge: Structural Geology and Thermochronometry of the Eastern Greater Caucasus

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 41, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Orogenic wedges are common at convergent plate margins and deform internally to maintain a self‐similar geometry during growth. New structural mapping and thermochronometry data illustrate that the eastern Greater Caucasus mountain range of western Asia undergoes deformation via distinct mechanisms that correspond with contrasting lithologies ...
