Segmented Moho Uplift and Implications for Magmatic Underplating Beneath the Datong Basin

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 18, 28 September 2026.
Abstract Understanding how the deep crust responds to coupled tectonic and magmatic processes is essential for deciphering intracontinental rifting. We apply high‐resolution passive‐source reverse time migration to teleseismic P‐wave receiver functions recorded by a dense seismic array to image the Moho beneath the Datong Basin. Our observations reveal

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

Geofísica 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 ...

SEISMIC ACTIVITY AND SEISMOTECTONIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SEISMIC SOURCE ZONES OF KOSOVO

Albanian Journal of Natural and Technical Sciences, 2021
Kosovo is characterized by a relatively high seismic activity as it is located in the Alpine-Mediterranean seismic belt. The thickness of the seismogenic zone in the Earth’s crust plays an important role in seismotectonics, affecting fault-system ...

Melt‐Regulated Crustal Kinematics in the Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau: Insights From Surface‐Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.

Surface Consistent Seismic Hazard Assessment in the Shillong Plateau, Northeast India: A Probabilistic Approach Using Multiple Source Models and a Logic Tree Framework

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 11, Page 2855-2879, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We perform probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) in the Shillong Plateau by clubbing the up‐to‐date earthquake data and seismotectonic properties of the study area. Twenty‐one areal seismic sources are delineated based on the updated earthquake catalog, tectonic, and fault plane solutions.

Study of Morphotectonic and Neotectonic Characteristics in Sabalan Mountain [PDF]

نشریه جغرافیا و برنامه‌ریزی, 2013
Sabalan Mountain is one of main morphtectonic units of Iran. This unit has extensive area, therefore in this research only southern slopes of Sabalan have been selected.

Toward an Improved Understanding of the Antarctic Coastal Zone and Its Contribution to Future Global Sea Level

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...

Neotectonic structure and evolution of Salamis island [PDF]

, 2001
Οι μορφοτεκτονικές διευθύνσεις που κυριαρχούν στη Σαλαμίνα έχουν διεύθυνση Α-Δ και ΒΑ-ΝΔ, που έχουν σαν αποτέλεσμα τη δημιουργία νεοτεκτονικών βυθισμάτων και κεράτων αντίστοιχων διευθύνσεων.
