Late-Quaternary paleoearthquakes along the Liulengshan Fault on the northern Shanxi Rift system

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
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]

open access: yesComputers & Geosciences, 2016
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.

Fluid‐Induced Magnetic Enhancement in Sandstone Friction Experiments: Implications for Coseismic Fault Temperature Estimates

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
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.

Reevaluating historical tsunami hazards from the Makran subduction zone and local seismic sources along the Western Indian margin through numerical modelling

open access: yesGeoscience Letters
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

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
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]

open access: yesThe Quaternary Research (Daiyonki-Kenkyu), 1999
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

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
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.
