Origin of the Great Nemunas Loops, South Lithuania [PDF]
The Nemunas River, one of the largest rivers of the Baltic region, is characterised by a generally straight valley. In the middle part of its course the Great Nemunas Loops are distinct features that occupy an area of 320 km2 near the Birštonas Resort ...

Piedmont deposits as seismic energy dissipators, Sierras Pampeanas of Argentina
This study shows the neotectonic deformation occurred in the southern piedmont of the Cumbres Calchaquíes, in the Amaicha and Tafí valleys. Neotectonic deformation manifests itself through faults, folds and diversions of drainage channels.

Recent seismicity of the «Acque Albule» travertine basin
The seismic period which occurred in a portion of Guidonia Montecelio and Tivoli territory, two towns situated about twenty kilometres NE of Rome, affected four areas with a high density of population: Guidonia, Collefiorito, Villalba and Bagni di Tivoli.

Appraisal of Neotectonic Activities in Shadi Kaur Catchment, Pasni, Balochistan-Pakistan
The goal of this research is to assess Neotectonic activity in the northern Pasni region of Balochistan-Pakistan. For a total of 57 drainage sub-basins, four geomorphic parameters were calculated.

Abstract The Nanga Parbat–Haramosh Massif located in the northwestern syntaxis of the Himalaya is an antiformal structure considered as a crustal diapir undergoing exhumation at a rate larger than 10 mm/yr since 1 Ma. Using GNSS horizontal surface velocities and a vertical and east–west decomposition of the Sentinel‐1 interferometric line‐of‐sight ...

Abstract The Southern Rocky Mountain Trench (SRMT) is a conspicuous valley in the eastern Canadian Cordillera. It lies above a sharp change in lithospheric strength and thickness and is occupied by a normal fault thought to have last been active in the Eocene.

A palaeoecological approach to neotectonics : the geomorphic evolution of the Ntem River in and below its interior delta, SW Cameroon [PDF]
The Late Tertiary to Quaternary evolution of the Ntem interior delta in SW Cameroon shall be modelled. A step fault was formed along neotectonically remobilized Precambrian structures.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

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 ...
