Complete records of fault activity are very valuable for assessing possible earthquakes. Fault scarps are one key to exploring past fault activity. Through the records of fault scarps, we can obtain evidence of fault activity and faulting events in ...

The role of neo-tectonics in the sedimentary infilling and geomorphological evolution of the Guadalquivir estuary (Gulf of Cadiz, SW Spain) during the Holocene. [PDF]
Spain) has yielded new evidence regarding the sedimentary infilling and geomorphological evolution of the Guadalquivir estuary during the Holocene. The sedimentation and geomorphological disposition have been strongly conditioned by neotectonic activity ...

Abstract Young active faults pose an underestimated seismic hazard as they can have limited geomorphic and structural expression. The Aigion‐Erineos fault system (AEFS) is a young normal fault on the south coast of the Gulf of Corinth, Greece that provides a key structural link with the Gulf of Patras.

Investigation on Reflection of Tectonic Pattern in ASG EUPOS Data in the Sudetes and Adjacent Areas
The GNSS data evaluated from on observation of ASG EUPOS stations in the Sudety Mts. and in adjacent areas is analyzed by the author in the scope of disturbances in daily solutions that can be induced by tectonics stress.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

Some features of deformation structures in an esker on the southern margin of the Fennoscandian shield [PDF]
As a result of melting of the last ice sheet in the southeastern edge of the Fennoscandian shield, ridge structures called eskers were formed. One of these eskers is the subject of our study.

Bioerosional scars made by limpets (Patella) on a cliff in Co. Antrim, Northern Ireland, indicate a Mid‐Holocene RSL of +7.8±0.55 m relative to local mid‐tide level today. This is higher than previous empirical data for the region and extrapolated levels from raised shorelines in Scotland but consistent with some recent GIA models.

Background In July 2021, destructive floods in Western Europe were triggered by enormous precipitation rates related to a low-pressure system named "Bernd." These catastrophic events led not only to major damage to infrastructure, severe economic losses,

The morphometric analysis of lineaments, valleys and signs of erosion taken from a digital elevation model (DEM) made it possible to not only confirm most of the conclusions of the morphotectonic development of the Blue Nile Basin from the previously ...
