Abstract Young active faults pose an underestimated seismic hazard as they can have limited geomorphic and structural expression. The Aigion‐Erineos fault system (AEFS) is a young normal fault on the south coast of the Gulf of Corinth, Greece that provides a key structural link with the Gulf of Patras.

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.

The neotectonic map of Iraq [PDF]
A neotectonic map of Iraq was constructed according partly to the work of Soviet team during eighties of the last century. The lower surfaces of Upper Miocene are chosen to be a datum for the construction.

Natural and Induced Seismicity in the Lake Erie-Lake Ontario Region: Reactivation of Ancient Faults with Little Neotectonic Displacement [PDF]
The two most prominent seismic zones in the Lake Erie-Lake Ontario region are associated with the Akron magnetic lineament and with the Clarendon-Linden fault.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

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.

The Litang fault (LTF), located in the southeast of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, is known for its high level of present-day seismicity, whereas its Pleistocene activity has been scarcely documented.

Bioerosional scars made by limpets (Patella) on a cliff in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland, indicate a Mid‐Holocene RSL of +7.8±0.55 m relative to local mid‐tide level today. This is higher than previous empirical data for the region and extrapolated levels from raised shorelines in Scotland but consistent with some recent GIA models.

Abstract The Brenner Fault is one of the most important normal faults in the Eastern Alps as it accommodates uplift and lateral extrusion of the Tauern Window. Consequently, understanding its kinematic history is important for studying the dynamics of the Eastern Alps, in particular the Tauern Window.
