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 ...

Abstract Throw rates of active faults are expected to scale with fault length because the geometric moment of a fault is directly related to its dimensions. However, empirical data sets commonly display substantial scatter, which limits the use of fault scaling relationships for seismic hazard assessment and for understanding the mechanics of ...

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.

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.

Gully erosion in India: Geo‐environmental controls and region‐specific characteristics
Spatial statistical analyses using a novel spatial database of India‧s gully erosion landforms revealed that India has six major gullying‐affected regions, three of which (EU, DU, and KCH) are dominated by gully systems (gully networks), with badlands (vast intensely gullied landscapes) being predominant in the other three regions (YB, GP, and RU ...

Tectonic Interplay in the Gulf of Cagliari (Italy): Extension, Compression and Strike‐Slip Movements
Since the Oligocene, extensional tectonics of the Sardinia Rift and Campidano Graben interacted with the collision between Sardinia and northern Africa, generating reverse faults. At the Plio‐Quaternary boundary, compressional tectonics resumed, shaping the southern margin of the gulf through transpressional tectonics of the exposed Ichnusa High ...

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 Longshou Shan area is located on the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau in northwest China. The study area is located where the sinistral Altyn Tagh and Haiyuan Faults overlap and the Qilian Shan thrust fault systems in the northeastern ...

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 ...

A combination of approaches to the study of neotectonics is discussed. As an example, an analysis is presented for part of the Podhale region, where changes in the hydrogeological regime were observed. Comments are made on the manifestation of geological
