Morpho-tectonic Assessment of the Abu-Dabbab Area, Eastern Desert, Egypt: Insights from Remote Sensing and Geospatial Analysis

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2021
The Abu-Dabbab area, located in the central part of the Egyptian Eastern Desert, is an active seismic region where micro-earthquakes (≈ML < 2.0) are recorded regularly. Earthquake epicenters are concentrated along an ENE–WSW trending pattern.

Block Motion Changes in Japan Triggered by the 2011 Great Tohoku Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Plate motions are governed by equilibrium between basal and edge forces. Great earthquakes may induce differential static stress changes across tectonic plates, enabling a new equilibrium state.

Tectonic history of the South Tannuol Fault Zone (Tuva region of the northern Central Asian Orogenic Belt, Russia) : constraints from multi-method geochronology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this study, we present zircon U/Pb, plagioclase and K-feldspar Ar-40/Ar-39 and apatite fission track (AFT) data along the South Tannuol Fault Zone (STFZ).

Neogene-Quaternary post-rift tectonic reactivation of the Bohai Bay Basin, eastern China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Bohai Bay Basin, located in eastern China, is considered a Cenozoic rifted basin. The basin is atypical in terms of its Neogene–Quaternary postrift subsidence history in that it experienced intensive tectonic reactivation, rather than the relative ...

DEM-based analysis of tectonic geomorphologic characteristics and tectonic activity intensity of the Dabanghe River Basin in South China Karst

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2023
The Dabanghe River Basin, in the west of Guizhou Plateau, consists of numerous prominent geological structural features, such as the Shuicheng–Wangmo, Yadu–Ziyun, and Yongningzhen Faults, the Huangguoshu Waterfall, and the Guanjiao Knickpoint.

Morphotectonic Analysis of South Solok Area: Implication for Geothermal Manifestation and Relative Tectonic Activity

open access: yesJournal of Geology Sriwijaya, 2022
The distribution of geothermal energy in Indonesia reaches 40% of all Indonesia's geothermal reserves. Sapan Maluluang, South Solok is one of the areas that has a promising geothermal manifestation. This area has structural hills that surround the depression area which characterizes areas that have several geothermal surface manifestations.

Geomorphic signal of active faulting at the northern edge of Lut Block. Insights on the kinematic scenario of Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recent works documented Neogene to Quaternary dextral strike-slip tectonics along the Kuh-e-Sarhangi and Kuh-e-Faghan intraplate strike-slip faults at the northern edge of the Lut Block of Central Iran, previously thought to be dominated by sinistral ...

Quaternary rupture of a crustal fault beneath Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The seismic potential of crustal faults within the forearc of the northern Cascadia subduction zone in British Columbia has remained elusive, despite the recognition of recent seismic activity on nearby fault systems within the Juan de Fuca Strait.
