Seismotectonics [PDF]

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, 1991
Seismotectonics is the synthesis of earthquake, geophysical, geodetic and geological data to deduce the tectonic framework of a region [Scholz, 1990].

SCALE EFFECT IN SEISMOTECTONICS

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
This publication consolidates and analyses experimental data in a wide range of scales in seismotectonics and geo­mechanics, from a micro-size seismic event (an earthquake focus of a few centimetres) to a mega earthquake.

The Geological Structure and Tectonic Complexity of Northern Thessaly That Hosted the March 2021 Seismic Crisis

open access: yesGeotechnics, 2022
Knowing the rich presence of active faults in northern Thessaly and the lack of any significant seismic activity since at least the mid-1940s, the 2021 seismic sequence did not surprise us.

Processes and deformation rates generating seismicity in metropolitan France and conterminous Western Europe

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2020
Most of metropolitan France and conterminous Western Europe is currently located within the Eurasia intraplate domain, far from major plate boundaries (the Atlantic ridge and Nubia – Eurasia convergence zone).

New Macroseismic and Morphotectonic Constraints to Infer a Fault Model for the 9 (Mw6.1) and 11 January (Mw7.3) 1693 Earthquakes (Southeastern Sicily)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
This study deals with the earthquakes which occurred in southeastern Sicily in 1693 (January 9 and 11, Mw ≈ 6.1 and 7.3, respectively). Although they have been largely studied, robust and commonly accepted seismic sources are still missing.

Neotectonics of Southwest Japan due to the right-oblique subduction of the Philippine Sea plate

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 1994
La región antearco del suroeste de Japón está dividida en cinco regiones equivalentes denominadas unidades estructurales. Cada unidad es de 120 a 150 km de largo y está compuesta de una cuenca antearco bordeada por un alto estructural invertido en forma ...

Stress buildup in the Himalaya [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The seismic cycle on a major fault involves long periods of elastic strain and stress accumulation, driven by aseismic ductile deformation at depth, ultimately released by sudden fault slip events. Coseismic slip distributions are generally heterogeneous
