Coseismic surface deformation from air photos: The Kickapoo step over in the 1992 Landers rupture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Coseismic deformation of the ground can be measured from aerial views taken before and after an earthquake. We chose the area of the Kickapoo-Landers step over along the 1992 Landers earthquake zone, using air photos (scale 1:40,000) scanned at 0.4 m ...

Deciphering Pleistocene Fault Activity in the Eastern Alps: Dating Fault Gouges With Electron Spin Resonance and Optically Stimulated Luminescence

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Eastern Alps have been influenced by post‐collisional indentation tectonics since the Miocene. Currently, Adria‐Europe convergence, albeit slow, is accommodated and distributed across several faults. The seismogenic potential of some of these faults is unclear. We applied optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) and electron spin resonance (

The Manyas fault zone (southern Marmara region, NW Turkey): active tectonics and paleoseismology

open access: yesGeodinamica Acta, 2017
The Manyas fault zone (MFZ) is a splay fault of the Yenice Gönen Fault, which is located on the southern branch of the North Anatolian Fault System. The MFZ is a 38 km long, WNW–ESE-trending and normal fault zone comprised of three en-echelon segments ...

Paleoseismology related to deformed archaeological remains in the Fucino Plain. Implications for subrecent seismicity in Central Italy

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1996
During paleoseismological investigations on the seismogenic structure responsible for the 1915 earthquake in the Fucino Plain (Central Italy), some trenches were excavated at the intersection between Roman-age channels and a fault characterized by ...

Archaeoseismology of the AD 1545 earthquake in Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The A.D. 1545 Chiang Mai earthquake in northern Thailand was studied by historical and archaeological sources.The temple Wat Chedi Luang has lost about half of the original 80-metres height due to southward-directed collapse.

Examination of the kinematic structures in İzmir (Western Anatolia) with repeated GPS observations (2009, 2010 and 2011) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Western Anatolia and the Aegean Sea regions are one of the most significant seismically active and rapidly deforming fields in the world. Generally, seismic activities cause deformations and these deformations are monitored with Global Positioning ...

COMPILATION OF ACTIVE FAULT DATA IN PORTUGAL FOR USE IN SEISMIC HAZARD ANALYSIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
To estimate where future earthquakes are likely to occur, it is essential to combine information about past earthquakes with knowledge about the location and seismogenic properties of active faults.

The Early Evolution of a Young Normal Fault in the Aysén Fjord, Chile

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Seismic reflection data have been used to investigate the evolution of faults in oil and gas basins for decades and typically image deeply buried faults at low resolution, with biostratigraphic age control to date horizons at scales of 10 Myr.

Millennial Recurrence of Large Earthquakes on the Haiyuan Fault near Songshan, Gansu Province, China

open access: yes, 2005
International audienceThe Haiyuan fault is a major active left-lateral fault along the northeast edge of the Tibet-Qinghai Plateau. Studying this fault is important in understanding current deformation of the plateau and the mechanics of continental ...

Geomorphic signal of active faulting at the northern edge of Lut Block. Insights on the kinematic scenario of Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent works documented Neogene to Quaternary dextral strike-slip tectonics along the Kuh-e-Sarhangi and Kuh-e-Faghan intraplate strike-slip faults at the northern edge of the Lut Block of Central Iran, previously thought to be dominated by sinistral ...
