Australian paleoseismology: towards a better basis for seismic hazard estimation
Probabilistic seismic hazard analyses in Australia rely fundamentally on the assumption that earthquakes recorded in the past are indicative of where earthquakes will occur in the future.

Submarine Paleoseismology Based on Turbidite Records
Many of the largest earthquakes are generated at subduction zones or other plate boundary fault systems near enough to the coast that marine environments may record evidence of them. During and shortly after large earthquakes in the coastal and marine environments, a spectrum of evidence may be left behind, mirroring onshore paleoseismic evidence ...

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

Paleoseismological analyses were performed along the Campo Imperatore Fault (part of the Gran Sasso Range Fault System) in order to define the seismogenic behaviour (recurrence interval for surface faulting events, elapsed time since the last ...

Turbidite correlation for paleoseismology [PDF]
Abstract Marine turbidite paleoseismology relies on the assumption of synchronous triggering of turbidity currents by earthquake shaking to infer rupture extent and recurrence. Such inference commonly depends on age dating and correlation of the physical stratigraphy of deposits carried by turbidity currents (i.e., turbidites) across ...

Paleoseismology, Second Edition
Review by: Allen W. Hatheway McCalpin has spent the last 20 years, fortunately for our profession, expanding and enhancing the body of knowledge on paleoseismology. This book is McCalpin's revision of his first edited and authored compendium. The first edition of 1996 captured the admiration of the GSA (Burwell Award) and of the Association of ...

Late quaternary paleoseismology of the Khlong Marui Fault in the Thub Pud area, Phang Nga, southern Thailand [PDF]
Remote sensing and aerial photography techniques have been applied in a study of the Khlong Marui Fault in Surat Thani and Phang Nga provinces of southern Thailand. Several faults are recognized in the region, trending mainly NE–SW.

Lacustrine paleoseismology in Carinthia, Austria
The Alps, a young and dynamically evolving mountain range, experience comparably slow tectonic movements that lead to low to moderate seismicity and infrequent strong earthquakes (Mw 5-7), typically recurring over thousands of years. Due to the limited time span covered by instrumental (∼100 years) and historical (∼1000 years) records, it is unlikely ...
