Late-Quaternary paleoearthquakes along the Liulengshan Fault on the northern Shanxi Rift system
The Liulengshan Fault (LLSF), which lies on the northeastern edge of the Ordos Plateau, is a controlling boundary fault in the northern part of the Shanxi Rift system (SRS).

A 3D measurement of the offset in paleoseismological studies [PDF]
The slip rate of a seismogenic fault is a crucial parameter for establishing the contribution of the fault to the seismic hazard. It is calculated from measurements of the offset of linear landforms, such channels, produced by the fault combined with their age.

Abstract Constraining peak temperature during seismic slip is essential for quantifying earthquake energy budgets and fault weakening. Rock magnetic methods provide a sensitive means of estimating shear‐induced coseismic temperature rise; however, the role of fluids in friction‐induced magnetic alterations remains poorly constrained.

The western coast of India is highly vulnerable to tsunami hazards due to its geographical proximity to the Makran Subduction Zone (MSZ), one of the most seismically active margins of the northern Indian Ocean.

Late Quaternary Tectonic Activity of the Udine-Buttrio Thrust, Friulian Plain, NE Italy
The NW-SE trending Udine-Buttrio Thrust is a partly blind fault that affects the Friulian plain southeast of Udine in NE Italy. It is part of a wider fault system that accommodates the northward motion of the Adriatic plate.

Progress in Paleoseismology in Japan during the 1990s. [PDF]
We review progress of geological and geomorphological approaches in paleoseismology in Japan during the this decade. We emphasize the growth of active fault studies since the 1995 Kobe earthquake. Two examples of intensive trenching studies, one on the Itoshizu-Tectonic Line in central Japan, and the other on the Miura Peninsula south of Tokyo, are ...

Low Hazard–High Risk: A Case Study of the Active Mangatangi Fault
Activity on low deformation rate faults are challenging to quantify and comparatively understudied. One such fault, the Mangatangi Fault, strikes NE‐SW along the southeastern flanks of the Hunua Ranges c. 52 km south of New Zealand's most populous city, Auckland.
