Quantitative analysis of relative tectonic activity in the Sarvestan area, central Zagros, Iran
Geomorphology, 2010Neotectonics is a major factor controlling landform development in tectonically active regions, and it has significantly affected fluvial systems and mountain-front landscapes in the Sarvestan area of the central Zagros, Iran. The area is located along the simply folded belt of the Zagros, and is an outcome of the SW–NE oriented tectonic conversion ...

Assessment of relative active tectonics in Edea – Eseka region (SW Cameroon, Central Africa)
Journal of African Earth Sciences, 2020Abstract The Edea-Eseka region (EER), a portion of West African Margin located in SW Cameroon between 3°30′—4°00′ N and 10°00′—10°55′ E and submitted to equatorial climate since early Miocene is used here as a proxy for climatic conditions. Geomorphological analysis based on morphometric parameters computed from DEM (30 m) combined with geological ...

Assessment of relative active tectonics, southwest border of the Sierra Nevada (southern Spain)
Geomorphology, 2008Abstract We present a new method for evaluating relative active tectonics based on geomorphic indices useful in evaluating morphology and topography. Indices used include: stream length-gradient index (SL), drainage basin asymmetry (Af), hypsometric integral (Hi), ratio of valley-floor width to valley height (Vf), index of drainage basin shape (Bs ...

The area is located in seismically active belt NW Himalaya resultant of collision between Indo-Eurasian plates. Due to presence of faults, folds, and active tectonics of Himalayan region, mountain front designs, behavior of fluvial system, and landform development have been extensively shaped and sculptured by tectonic activity.

Quantitative assessment of relative tectonic activity in the Alamarvdasht river basin, south of Iran
2016Tectonic processes are major factors controlling landform development in tectonically active areas. In order to evaluate quantitative measurement of tectonic activities in the Alamarvdasht basin in the south of Iran, six different morphological indices including stream-gradient index (SL), drainage basin asymmetry (Af), hypsometric integral (Hi ...

ABSTRACT The Katrol hill fault (KHF) is a 71 km long fault, striking E-W in the Kachchh intraplate region, western India which is moderately active, seismically, but exhibit high strain rate with considerable vertical deformation. It is dissected by several young transverse faults. Based on these transverse faults, KHF is longitudinally,

Quantitative analysis of relative tectonic activity in the Jarahi-Hendijan basin area, Zagros, Iran
Geosciences Journal, 2015Quantitative analysis is a major factor controlling landform development in tectonically active regions, and it has significantly affected fluvial systems and mountain-front landscapes in the Jarahi-Hendijan basin area of the Zagros, southwest Iran. The area is located along the high Zagros, Zagros simple folded belt and coastal plain. It is an outcome
