Abstract The Alpine Fault (AF) in Aotearoa New Zealand is a fast‐slipping plate boundary fault late in its seismic cycle that presents a major source of seismic hazard. Past earthquakes have created a structural‐geomorphic record of surface ruptures that we map and analyze for the northern AF using 1,000 km2 ${\text{km}}^{2}$ of Light Detection and ...

Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...

Mega-geomorphology and neotectonics [PDF]
For several decades, subtle neotectonic effects involving several square kilometers have been studied in detail using remote sensing, primarily various types of stereo-aerial photographs at scales of 1:10,000 to 1:80,000. These subtle effects, especially

ABSTRACT We combine previous studies, fieldwork, lidar data, and trenching to examine late Quaternary activity of the SE‐dipping ≥23 km long Settlement Fault in the southeastern South Island. Trenching of a scarp crossing a small alluvial fan exposed a > 3 m thick sequence of folded sandy to silty fan alluvium.

The internal structure of Beypazarı Blind Thrust Zone around Çayırhan
The Beypazarı Blind Thrust Zone, which is surrounded by the North Anatolian, the Eskişehir, and the Kırıkkale-Erbaa fault zones, is a recently defined neotectonic structure developed in the NW central Anatolia together with the Eldivan-Elmadağ and the ...
