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 ...

Timeline of Te Horo lake presence and absence interspersed with unknown landscape periods between 2014 and 2025, noting the lifespan of initial formation 2014–2019, the 2020–2021 lake formation and the increasing volume of observations from 2017 onwards. Chronology reconstructed from satellite imagery.

Abstract Volcanism in continental rifts, rifted volcanic arcs, and back‐arc basins is fundamentally coupled with crustal extension. However, the precise geometry and timing of the fault systems that facilitate magma transport and accommodate extension remain poorly constrained.

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

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.

Abstract Throw rates of active faults are expected to scale with fault length because the geometric moment of a fault is directly related to its dimensions. However, empirical data sets commonly display substantial scatter, which limits the use of fault scaling relationships for seismic hazard assessment and for understanding the mechanics of ...

Gully erosion in India: Geo‐environmental controls and region‐specific characteristics
Spatial statistical analyses using a novel spatial database of India‧s gully erosion landforms revealed that India has six major gullying‐affected regions, three of which (EU, DU, and KCH) are dominated by gully systems (gully networks), with badlands (vast intensely gullied landscapes) being predominant in the other three regions (YB, GP, and RU ...

Tectonic Interplay in the Gulf of Cagliari (Italy): Extension, Compression and Strike‐Slip Movements
Since the Oligocene, extensional tectonics of the Sardinia Rift and Campidano Graben interacted with the collision between Sardinia and northern Africa, generating reverse faults. At the Plio‐Quaternary boundary, compressional tectonics resumed, shaping the southern margin of the gulf through transpressional tectonics of the exposed Ichnusa High ...
