Joint orientation measurements in Western Alberta and British Columbia
Annals of Geophysics, 1981 Joint orientations were measured in the mountains of Western Alberta<br />and British Columbia. These were then evaluated statistically according<br />to the standard method of Kohlbeck and Scheidegger.

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.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 ...

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 68, Issue 4, Page 747-772, December 2025.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.

Mega-geomorphology and neotectonics [PDF]
For several decades, subtle neotectonic effects involving several square kilometers have been studied in detail using remote sensing, primarily various types of stereo-aerial photographs at scales of 1:10,000 to 1:80,000. These subtle effects, especially

Latest Pliocene to recent thick-skinned tectonics at the Upper Rhine Graben - Jura Mountains junction [PDF]
, 2018 The southernmost Upper Rhine Graben and adjacent Jura experienced basement-rooted shortening that occurred after the deposition of the Pliocene fluvial "Sundgau gravels”. Folds affecting the base of these gravels systematically trend NE to ENE.

New active faults on Eurasian-Arabian collision zone : Tectonic activity of Özyurt and Gülsünler faults (eastern Anatolian Plateau, Van-Turkey) [PDF]
, 2017 The Eastern Anatolian Plateau emerges from the continental collision between Arabian and Eurasian plates where intense seismicity related to the ongoing convergence characterizes the southern part of the plateau. Active deformation in this zone is shared

Palaeoclimate changes in the Afyon province, Sw-Turkey, during the Middle-Late Pleistocene: Signals from calcareous tufa pollen and stable isotope records [PDF]
, 2018 The calcareous tufas of Sarikavak located in the northern part of NE-SW trending Acigöl Graben in SW-Turkey are investigated in detail. For this aim, various analyses (stable isotopes, U/Th dating, palynology) have been carried out on samples obtained ...

Oblique Convergence in the Himalayas of Western Nepal Deduced from Preliminary Results of GPS Measurements [PDF]
, 1999 A GPS network consisting of 29 sites was installed in central and western Nepal, with measurements taken in 1995 and partial remeasurements in 1997. Data suggest 15 +/−5 mm/yr of N180° convergence between the Higher Himalayas and India, a result that is ...
