Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.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 ...

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.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.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.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.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 Deformations in Western Istria, Croatia [PDF]
, 1994 Studied neotectonic structure in West Istria has the orientation corresponding to the recent (NNE - SSW, almost N - S) direction of the global tangential stress in the area. The analyse suppose the existence of the trailing imbricated fan structure, what

Neotectonics and seismicity of the Urals
Izvestiya vysshikh uchebnykh zavedenii. Gornyi zhurnal, 2022 Introduction. The Ural submeridional mountain belt is an epipaleozoic orogen rejuvenated in the contemporary period (in the Neogene-Quaternary period in the last 20–30 million years). In the pre-Paleozoic era, the Urals developed as a submeridional upland, presumably as a result of the interaction (clash) between the East European and West Siberian ...

Tandem suturing and disarticulation of the Taiwan orogen revealed by its neotectonic elements [PDF]
, 2005 Taiwan's numerous active faults and folds demarcate distinct eastern and western neotectonic belts. The western belt results from the attachment and subsequent detachment of a sliver of continental lithosphere to the Eurasian continental margin.

Diamondiferous deposits in the Jequitai area (Minas Gerais, Brazil): a consequence of neotectonic processes [PDF]
, 2005 Diamonds obtained from small scale mining near Jequitai and surrounding villages are extracted from Tertiary conglomerates and Quaternary gravels of the Rio Jequitai. Eocretaceous conglomerates, which are locally poorly diamondiferous, cover parts of the

Tectono-Geomorphic Mapping of Neotectonic Bedrock Structures [PDF]
The causes of recurrent, low to moderate magnitude (≤ 4 Nuttli Magnitude – MN) intraplate seismicity in Southern Ontario are not well understood. Neotectonic faults and pop-up structures have been identified in Prince Edward County (PEC), but their links
