Neotectonics in Geomorphology

open access: yesGeografie, 1966
In geology and geomorphology vertical movements of the earth's crust have been commonly known for a long time. Horsts, faults, overthrusts, antecedences, subsiding and upheaving shores, uplifts and subsidences of the erosion base, etc. are common phenomena.

New Constraints on the Activity and Evolution of the Young Aigion‐Erineos Fault System, Gulf of Corinth, Greece

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
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.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 454-475, April 2026.
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.

A limpet's eye view of post‐glacial isostasy: fixed biological indicators provide new sea‐level index points for the Mid‐Holocene relative highstand in eastern Northern Ireland

open access: yesBoreas, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 585-599, April 2026.
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.

Electron Spin Resonance Thermochronometry Indicates Quaternary Activity of the Brenner Fault (Eastern Alps)

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The Brenner Fault is one of the most important normal faults in the Eastern Alps as it accommodates uplift and lateral extrusion of the Tauern Window. Consequently, understanding its kinematic history is important for studying the dynamics of the Eastern Alps, in particular the Tauern Window.

Neotectonics of Turkey – a synthesis

open access: yes, 2001
Turkey forms one of the most actively deforming regions in the world and has a long history of devastating earthquakes. The better understanding of its neotectonic features and active tectonics would provide insight, not only for the country but also for

Role of Complex Crustal and Basinal Structures in Onset of an Intracratonic Rift System: An Example From the Onshore Potiguar Basin, Brazilian Equatorial Margin

open access: yesBasin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Schematic evolution model of the Onshore Potiguar Basin, illustrating the role of complex crustal and basinal structures in the onset of this intracratonic rift system in NE Brazilian Equatorial Margin. Red arrows indicate the extensional direction and coloured areas on the surface are the Self‐Organizing Maps populations related to crystalline ...

Neotectonics and Earthquake Forecasting

open access: yesEos, 2017
The editors of a new book describe the evolution of major earthquake producing fault zones in the eastern Mediterranean region and explore how earthquake forecasting could improve.

Interplay Between Tectonics and Submarine Mass Transport Deposits in Cortes Basin: New High‐Resolution Geophysics in the Outer California Borderland

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The Outer California Borderland (OCB) is an active transform plate boundary offshore Southern California, where the relationship between faulting and submarine mass transport deposits (MTDs) remains poorly understood. Onshore paleoseismic data provide high‐resolution earthquake records, whereas marine geophysical data capture longer‐term ...
