Neotectonics in central Mexico
Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 1990Regional neotectonic activity in central Mexico was mapped through analysis of eleven Landsat Thematic Mapper images. The study area stretches from Mexico City on the east to the Gulf of California on the west, between 17° and 21° N latitude. Fault scarps of Plio-Quaternary age define several large scale tectonic features within the Mexican Volcanic ...

Reviews of Geophysics, 1984
A compilation of earthquake focal mechanism solutions together with the interpretation of inclined, intermediate‐depth seismic zones, Neogene strike‐slip faults, fault‐controlled basins, and volcanism is used to test three existing models for the neotectonic (i.e., Neogene or post‐Oligocene) development of the Caribbean.

Neotectonics and River Valleys
2019This chapter presents a deductive analysis of the geomorphological evolution of northeastern Brazil. This analysis faces the need to update the interpretations of landform evolution, which should take into account the work carry out by rivers, to revisit the classical literature and contrast their interpretations with more recent morphotectonic ...

Neotectonics and Recent Paleogeography
2021The Northern Hellenides are characterized by slow convergence between the Apulian platform and the European margin with a rate of 8mm/year whereas the Southern Hellenides are characterized by a rapid oceanic subduction with a rate of 40–50mm/year. The Cephalonia right-lateral strike–slip fault forms a tear of the crust with 100km of horizontal slip ...

Neotectonics and Australian Biogeography
2020Australia is the flattest continent on Earth and has a wide range of different landforms, making it an ideal place to investigate the impact of neotectonics (continental tilting and dynamic topography) on bioregionalisation. It is highly likely that continental tilting and dynamic uplift together have driven the biogeography of Australia since the ...

Neotectonics of the Netherlands
Quaternary Science Reviews, 2005Earthquakes and vertical land movements inferred from geodetic levelling results demonstrate that the Netherlands is situated on a tectonically active part of the Earth's surface. Tectonic subsidence analyses of the sedimentary records in the basins and the history of tectonic uplift inferred from Meuse river terraces show that the current tectonic ...

Neotectonic fault significance
Proceedings of the 1st Australian Conference on Engineering GeologyThis paper presents a sensitivity analysis on the significance of neotectonic faults at various slip and distance scenarios to seismic hazard ground motion estimates. The analysis implements neotectonic faults into an exemplar probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) with no prior known neotectonic faults by iterating 15 hypothetical neotectonic ...

Neotectonics of Arctic: ABSTRACT
AAPG Bulletin, 1970The morphostructure and relief of the Arctic were formed chiefly by modern warping movements. The magnetic anomaly patterns of the Eurasian and the Scandic subbasin may be the result of successive inversions of strips of continental crust through time.
