Neotectonics and inferred movements in Canada [PDF]
Neotectonic movements in Canada are due to a variety of causes. Within the Canadian Shield (craton) postglacial rebound appears to be the main contributor.

The anisotropy of magnetic remanence (AMR) is often used as a tool for examining magnetic anisotropy of rocks. However, the influence of magnetostatic interactions on AMR has not been previously rigorously addressed either theoretically or experimentally,

Cave Palaeolithic of the Ural Mountains – a review
The Ural Mountains are of fundamental importance for studying early human migrations along the geographical limits between Europe and Asia. Geological processes and past climates gave rise to numerous caves, mostly in Palaeozoic carbonate formations.

Tectonic evolution of the southern part of Central Viet Nam and the adjacent area
Interpretations of seismic, gravity and magnetic anomalies and structural data on the coastal zone of southern part of Central Viet Nam (SCVN) and the adjacent Tertiary basins suggest several phases in the tectonic evolution of the study region since the

Neotectonics, flooding patterns and landscape evolution in southern Amazonia [PDF]
The paper examines the role of neotectonic activity in the evolution of the landscape in southern Amazonia during the Holocene. It uses both new and published data based on the analysis of remote sensing imagery and extensive field work in the Llanos de ...

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,

The deep‐water area of the south slope of the Lingshui Depression in the Qiongdongnan Basin has already yielded the Deep Sea No. 1 gas field. However, so far, there have been no significant breakthroughs in exploration in the shallow‐water area of the north slope.

Strong Ground Motion Characteristics of the Saturated Loess Site
Significant differences exist in the ground response of saturated and unsaturated deposits to earthquakes, but few relevant studies exist on strong ground motion in saturated loess. We have selected three loess sites that are highly affected by earthquake‐induced liquefaction hazards, analyzed the nonlinear characteristics of the ground motion response

Abstract The convergence of the Indian and Eurasian plates beneath the Pamir Plateau has produced complex continental subduction, significantly influencing upper crustal faulting and seismicity. To investigate the kinematic behavior of the High Pamir Plateau, we derive a geodetic slip model for the 2023 Mw 6.9 Pamir earthquake by using Sentinel‐1A and ...

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 ...
