Prospects for Paleoseismology in Spain
, 2012 Paleoseismology is the study of prehistoric earthquakes, especially their location, timing and size. Paleoseismology and Neotectonics should not be confused.

SeismicaEvaluating fault segmentation is important for our understanding of seismic hazard assessment and fault growth. However, it is still unclear what controls if reverse fault earthquakes will rupture across segment boundaries.

Paleoseismic evidence of a giant medieval earthquake in the eastern Himalaya
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 We present here the results of a paleoseismic investigation carried across a ~10 m high fault scarp at Panijhora village, West Bengal in northeastern India. Accelerator Mass Spectrometer analyzed 14C radiocarbon age constraints from six detrital charcoal

Paleoseismology of the Xorxol Segment of the Central Altyn Tagh Fault, Xinjiang, China
Annals of Geophysics, 2003 Although the Altyn Tagh Fault (ATF) is thought to play a key role in accommodating India-Eurasian convergence, little is known about its earthquake history.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.Abstract Bedrock fault scarps and their associated colluvial wedges provide key evidence for reconstructing paleoearthquakes. We apply rock surface luminescence dating to a bedrock scarp on the Huashan fault in central China, using OSL‐depth profiles (DPs) from multiple heights. Results reveal two coseismic displacements of 6.8 and >1.0 m.

GeosciencesMost of the Periadriatic Fault System has been active during the Oligocene and Miocene times. Its western part seems to be almost inactive ever since, while the eastern segments show limited seismic activity.

Lichenometry dating of coseismic changes to a New Zealand landslide complex
Annals of Geophysics, 2003 Lichenometry is a surface-exposure-dating procedure that complements traditional trench-and-date stratigraphic studies of earthquakes. Lichens on the surficial blocks of a slump in the Seaward Kaikoura Range, South Island, New Zealand provide ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Lipids are powerful tools for reconstructing paleoenvironments and geologic processes because of their ubiquity and preservation in the rock record. Traditionally, organic geochemistry studies are targeted analyses of known biomarker compounds with known responses to past environmental conditions or geologic processes.

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract This study reveals different slip patterns of tsunami sources between two prehistoric giant earthquakes along the southern Kuril Trench, based on an integration of geological data and numerical simulations. The most recent giant earthquake occurred in the 17th century and its predecessor was in the 13th–14th century.
