Seismotectonics, Geomorphology and Paleoseismology of the Doroud Fault, a Source of Seismic Hazard in Zagros

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
In this study, the active tectonics, paleoseismicity, and seismic hazards of the Doroud Fault are examined through high-resolution satellite image interpretations, field investigations, outcrop and trench excavations, and the dating of geochronology ...

Paleoseismology of the Marquesado-La Rinconada thrust system, Eastern Precordillera of Argentina

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Excavated trenches at two sites across the Marquesado–La Rinconada fault system along the eastern Precordilleran front south of San Juan, Argentina, reveal the earthquake history of this rapidly urbanizing region.

Repeated giant earthquakes on the Wairarapa fault, New Zealand, revealed by Lidar-based paleoseismology. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2020
The Mw 7.8 2016 Kaikoura earthquake ruptured the Kekerengu-Needle fault resulting in the loading of its eastern continuation, the Wairarapa fault. Since the most recent earthquake on Wairarapa occurred in 1855 and is one of the strongest continental ...

Holocene surface-rupturing paleo-earthquakes along the Kachchh Mainland Fault: shaping the seismic landscape of Kachchh, Western India [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
This study explores the seismotectonics of Kachchh in western India, a region with a low-to-moderate strain rate and a history of significant earthquakes, notably the 1819, Mw 7.8 Allah Bund, and the 2001, Mw 7.6 Bhuj.

Improved NB Model Analysis of Earthquake Recurrence Interval Coefficient of Variation for Major Active Faults in the Hetao Graben and Northern Marginal Region [PDF]

open access: yesEntropy
This study presents an improved Nishenko–Buland (NB) model to address systematic biases in estimating the coefficient of variation for earthquake recurrence intervals based on a normalizing function TTave.

Deep-water turbidites as Holocene earthquake proxies: the Cascadia subduction zone and Northern San Andreas Fault systems [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2003
New stratigraphic evidence from the Cascadia margin demonstrates that 13 earthquakes ruptured the margin from Vancouver Island to at least the California border following the catastrophic eruption of Mount Mazama.
