The 2009 earthquake, magnitude mb 4.8, in the Pantanal Wetlands, west-central Brazil

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2016
The main goal of this paper is to characterize the Coxim earthquake occurred in June 15th, 2009 in the Pantanal Basin and to discuss the relationship between its faulting mechanism with the Transbrasiliano Lineament.

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF NEOGEODYNAMICS OF THE BALTIC SYNECLISE AND THE NORTHERN SLOPE OF THE VORONEZH ANTECLISE A

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
The paper presents the results of comparative neogeodynamic analysis of the Baltic syneclise and northern Voronezh anteclise based on structural-geomorphological interpretation, digital elevation model (DEM) processing procedure using LESSA program ...

Oblique Convergence in the Himalayas of Western Nepal Deduced from Preliminary Results of GPS Measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Formations quaternaires et néotectonique dans le bassin de l'Orbieu (Aude, France)

open access: yesPhysio-Géo, 2013
A geomorphological and sedimentological analysis makes it possible to identify the different Quaternary formations in the Orbieu valley. Then, the reconstruction of the longitudinal and transversal profiles shows the evolution of tectonic deformations ...

A palaeoecological approach to neotectonics : the geomorphic evolution of the Ntem River in and below its interior delta, SW Cameroon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The Late Tertiary to Quaternary evolution of the Ntem interior delta in SW Cameroon shall be modelled. A step fault was formed along neotectonically remobilized Precambrian structures.

Surface Deformation of the Nanga Parbat Crustal Diapir in the Northwestern Himalaya Imaged With GNSS and InSAR

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Active tectonics of the Eastern Mediterranean region: deduced from GPS, neotectonic and seismicity data

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1997
This paper reviews the main tectonic features of the Eastern Mediterranean region combining the recent information obtained from GPS measurements, seismicity and neotectonic studies.

Holocene Normal Faulting in the Southern Rocky Mountain Trench; Orogenic Collapse Modulated by Glacial Unloading?

open access: yesJournal 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.

Intraplate Strike-Slip Corridor within South America (NE Border of the Paraná Basin) Unveiled by Structural Analysis of Faults and Fracture Swarms

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
We present the effect of neotectonics in intracratonic settings as revealed by the surface, brittle deformation associated to a regionally-sized shear corridor, which affects Southeastern Brazil.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics

open access: yesJournal 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 ±
