Evolución geológica en la cuenca baja del río Colorado durante el cenozoico, Patagonia Norte, Argentina [PDF]
, 2019 Climatic changes and eustatic sea levels have been assumed to be the most important controllers of the Colorado River alluvial fan in northern Patagonia.

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 ...

Active Tectonics of the Pyrenees: A review. [PDF]
, 2016 The Pyrenees have experienced at least seven earthquakes with magnitude M > 5 in the last 400 years. During the last decades, several seismotectonic, neotectonic and paleoseismological studies have focused on identifying the main active structures of the

Neotectonics and seismicity in southern Patagonia
Geological Journal, 2015 Research for evaluation of geologic hazards involving earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in southern Argentina seems to have historically received little attention. Nevertheless, the relatively small work done indicates a Neogene tectonic architecture in the area with capability of generating potential hazardous earthquakes in a growing population ...

Neotectonics in Earthquake Evaluation [PDF]
, 1990 Abstract Here is a new, state-of-the-art guide for assessing earthquake sources throughout the contiguous United States. Because the relevant literature on the geological aspects of earthquake assessment has become so extensive in recent years, scientists should welcome this timely and compact group of new, useful syntheses of current ...

Neotectonics of the Sumatran fault, Indonesia [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2000 The 1900‐km‐long, trench‐parallel Sumatran fault accommodates a significant amount of the right‐lateral component of oblique convergence between the Eurasian and Indian/Australian plates from 10°N to 7°S. Our detailed map of the fault, compiled from topographic maps and stereographic aerial photographs, shows that unlike many other great strike‐slip ...

Subaqueous landslides at the distal basin of Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina): Towards a tsunami hazard evaluation in Northern Patagonian lakes [PDF]
, 2018 The May 22nd, 1960 Valdivia earthquake, Chile (Mw 9.5) triggered a series of subaqueous mass-wasting processes (debris flows and slides) in Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina), generating a tsunami-like wave that hit the coasts of San Carlos de Bariloche ...

unreinforced masonry buildings [PDF]
, 2008 A recent earthquake of M=4.9 occurred on 29 October 2007 in C, ameli, Denizli, which is located in a seismically active region at southwest Anatolia, Turkey. It has caused extensive damages at unreinforced masonry buildings like many other cases observed

Boreas, EarlyView.This study contains a comprehensive regional analysis of the orientations of tunnel valleys, faults and salt structures in the North German Basin, aiming to identify correlations that might indicate a structural control on tunnel‐valley formation. A structural control on tunnel‐valley formation has been repeatedly postulated and correlations have been ...

Drainage Divide Migration in Response to Asymmetric Uplift at Eastern Qinling, China
Terra Nova, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Drainage divide migration shapes landscape, sediment patterns, and biodiversity, which is affected by a variety of factors. While geomorphic index and numerical simulations have been employed to investigate divide migration, previous studies ignore the present‐day vertical velocity field.
