Neotectonics and inferred movements in Canada [PDF]
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]
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 ...

BALIKESİR OVASI VE YAKIN ÇEVRESİNİN NEOTEKTONİK ÖZELLİKLERİ VE DEPREMSELLİĞİ
Earthquake is a natural hazard associated with geologic events. In Turkey, which is on the Alp’s Mountain belt, people have lost lives and property because of this disaster.

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 ...

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

Assessing the Geomorphological Hazards of the Zonouzchay Catchment [PDF]
Introduction When a natural process threatens human life or property, it is called natural hazard. Disasters’ statistics have shown that their effects are, considerably, increasing all over the world.

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 ...
