Analysis of correlation of Neotectonic and seismicity in Bakharden-Quchan zone
Journal of Economic Geology, 2021 Introduction Two fundamental goals are followed in this paper: 1- Active neotectonics of the Kopeh Dagh Mountains particularly in its central part that is called the Bakharden-Quchan Zone in NE Iran for special features of faulting and role of faults ...

Unrest at Domuyo Volcano, Argentina, detected by geophysical and geodetic data and morphometric analysis [PDF]
, 2019 New volcanic unrest has been detected in the Domuyo Volcanic Center (DVC), to the east of the Andes Southern Volcanic Zone in Argentina. To better understand this activity, we investigated new seismic monitoring data, gravimetric and magnetic campaign ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 A reexamination of the observations and analysis recently reported to conclude that an 800 km section of the Himalayan Frontal Thrust ruptured in 1255 A.D. shows that the conclusion is flawed and without merit because of misinterpretations of trench logs

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 During the late Mesozoic, the East Asian continent underwent a complex tectonic history due to multiple episodes of plate convergence. How the crust responds to the multiple plate convergence in the North China Craton (NCC) remains unclear.

Millennial slip rate of the Longitudinal Valley fault from river terraces: Implications for convergence across the active suture of eastern Taiwan [PDF]
, 2006 The Longitudinal Valley fault is a key element in the active tectonics of Taiwan. It is the principal structure accommodating convergence across one of the two active sutures of the Taiwan orogeny.

Quantifying the slip rates, spatial distribution and evolution of active normal faults from geomorphic analysis: Field examples from an oblique-extensional graben, southern Turkey [PDF]
, 2009 Quantifying the extent to which geomorphic features can be used to extract tectonic signals is a key challenge in the Earth Sciences. Here we analyse the drainage patterns, geomorphic impact, and long profiles of bedrock rivers that drain across and ...

Neotectonics of Turkey (Türkiye) and surrounding regions: a new perspective with block modelling
Geologica Acta, 2022 This paper aims to present a new neotectonic perspective concordant with the seismic activities in Turkey and surrounding regions. The neotectonic structures have been re-evaluated mainly by using focal mechanism solutions and high-resolution satellite ...

Neotectonics: Watching the earth move [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999 Recent advances in global positioning system (GPS) technology have made it possible to detect millimeter scale changes in the Earth’s surface. Using these systems it has been possible to detect relative motion between the large plates of the outer most rigid layer of Earth.

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The geothermal resources in mountainous areas are usually controlled by neotectonic faults. To minimize the risk in site selection for geothermal drilling, the controlling mechanism must be identified.
