Fault activity studies in the Lower Tagus valley and Lisbon region using geophysical data [PDF]
he Metropolitan Area of Lisbon and the Lower Tagus Valley (LTV) region are located in central Portugal and inhabited by nearly 4 million people. The region has suffered throughout its history the effect of destructive earthquakes caused by hidden faults,

Abstract The Alpine Fault (AF) in Aotearoa New Zealand is a fast‐slipping plate boundary fault late in its seismic cycle that presents a major source of seismic hazard. Past earthquakes have created a structural‐geomorphic record of surface ruptures that we map and analyze for the northern AF using 1,000 km2 ${\text{km}}^{2}$ of Light Detection and ...

The neotectonic processes petrol field in middle part of eastern Bačka [PDF]
On the base of mutual position of surface waterflows, topography character with morphological anomalies and their relation to the in-depth structure of Neogenic and Quaternary sediments, the appearance of fissured and epirogenic neotectonic processes (in

Improving the Knowledge on Seismogenic Sources in the Lower Tagus Valley for Seismic Hazard Purposes [PDF]
The Lower Tagus Valley, that includes the metropolitan area of Lisbon, has been struck by several earthquakes which produced significant material damage and loss of lives. Their exact location remains unknown.

Fault specific GIS based seismic hazard maps for the Attica Region, Greece [PDF]
Traditional seismic hazard assessment methods are based on the historical seismic records for the calculation of an annual probability of exceedance for a particular ground motion level. A new fault specific seismic hazard assessment method is presented,

Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...

ABSTRACT We combine previous studies, fieldwork, lidar data, and trenching to examine late Quaternary activity of the SE‐dipping ≥23 km long Settlement Fault in the southeastern South Island. Trenching of a scarp crossing a small alluvial fan exposed a > 3 m thick sequence of folded sandy to silty fan alluvium.

Neotectonic-related landforms in the Campos do Jordão Plateau, Southeast Brazil
The Campos do Jordão Plateau, situated in the Serra da Mantiqueira – western flank of the Continental Rift of Southeastern Brazil, presents several morphological features that are indicative of neotectonic activity.
