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

open access: goldApplied Sciences (Switzerland), 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 ...

Supershear source model of the 2025 M7.8 Myanmar earthquake and paleoseismology of the Sagaing Fault: regions of significant overlap with past earthquakes

open access: diamondSeismica
The 2025 Mw 7.8 earthquake on the central Sagaing Fault is one of the most destructive seismic events in Myanmar's recorded history, producing near-fault shaking exceeding Modified Mercalli Intensity X and impacting tens of millions of people across ...

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.

Paleoseismology of the Zia Fault and Its Impact on Seismic Hazard for Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA [PDF]

open access: bronzeEnvironmental & Engineering Geoscience
The Zia Fault is one of three major east-dipping normal faults on the western margin of the Rio Grande Rift in the northern Albuquerque Basin. Our trenches were located about 250 m south of the northern rim of the Llano de Albuquerque (LdA), where a ...
