Quaternary rupture of a crustal fault beneath Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]
, 2017 The seismic potential of crustal faults within the forearc of the northern Cascadia subduction zone in British Columbia has remained elusive, despite the recognition of recent seismic activity on nearby fault systems within the Juan de Fuca Strait.

Rupture of the 1949 Khait Earthquake on a Cryptic Fault: Implications for Earthquake Hazard
Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract The 1949 Mw 7.6 Khait earthquake, Tajikistan, was one of the most destructive of the Pamir—Tien Shan region, killing over 7,000 people by building collapse and landsliding. It occurred at the transition between the Pamir and Tien Shan mountain ranges, which converge along the narrow Vashkh river valley.

Neotectónica e períodos de recorrência de grandes sismos e tsunamis na margem SW Ibérica e Golfo de Cádis [PDF]
, 2010 Neste trabalho usámos o método numérico das placas finas (Bird, 1999) para modelar a Neotectónica no Golfo de Cadiz e estimar os períodos de recorrência de grandes sismos e tsunamis.

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract The eastern Adriatic margin is composed by an Ocean‐Continent Transition lithosphere (OCT), resulting in the southwards along‐strike variation from collision to subduction. The Cephalonia‐Lefkada Transform Fault zone (CTF) is a right‐lateral strike‐slip fault system located above the OCT and associated to this kinematic transition.

Methods And Techniques In Geomorphology Tectonics
Espaço Aberto, 2016 There is a striking relationship between neotectonics and the morphology of the current landscape. In recent years, the tectonic involving the time interval of the Neogene and Quaternary (Neotectonics) have been widely investigated to explain the ...

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

Morphometric Evidence for Cenozoic Intraplate Reactivation in NW Uruguay
Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Located in eastern South America, Uruguay has been considered tectonically inactive since rifting in the Late Cretaceous. Here, we use a high‐resolution digital elevation model and field observations to investigate the presence of recent tectonic activity in the Basaltic Plateau, northwest Uruguay.

Boreas, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 542-566, October 2025.This study contains a comprehensive regional analysis of the orientations of tunnel valleys, faults and salt structures in the North German Basin, aiming to identify correlations that might indicate a structural control on tunnel‐valley formation. A structural control on tunnel‐valley formation has been repeatedly postulated and correlations have been ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 A reexamination of the observations and analysis recently reported to conclude that an 800 km section of the Himalayan Frontal Thrust ruptured in 1255 A.D. shows that the conclusion is flawed and without merit because of misinterpretations of trench logs
