A seismotectonic map of Eastern Siberia
Geodynamics & Tectonophysics, 2015 The paper reviews goals and objectives, stages and the content of seismotectonic studies conducted in Eastern Siberia. Such studies are based on a comprehensive analysis of geological and geophysical data and provide for establishing whether the local earthquakes are of tectonic origin and revealing their relationships with recent geodynamic processes ...

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 Subduction initiation is an important but still poorly documented process on Earth. Here, we document one of a few cases of ongoing transition between passive and active continental margins by identifying the geometrical and structural signatures that ...

A New Viewpoint for Seismotectonic Zoning
American Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2011 Problem statement: Seismotectonic zoning has always been used to get access to intracontinental seismic deformation whereas zoning is not enough reliable in regard with small-scale studies. Approach: This research presents a theoretical model on the basis of plate tectonic theory to introduce a new approach to conduct zoning in terms of seismic ...

Seismotectonics of the Cyprian Arc [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 2006 SUMMARY The Cyprian Arc forms the plate boundary between the Anatolian plate in the north and the Nubian and Sinai plates in the south. We examine the tectonic setting and seismic activity along the arc in light of new geodetic studies indicating relative NE‐SW plate motions across the arc.

The New Seismotectonic Atlas of Greece (v1.0) and Its Implementation
Geosciences, 2020 Knowledge and visualization of the present-day relationship between earthquakes, active tectonics and crustal deformation is a key to understanding geodynamic processes, and is also essential for risk mitigation and the management of geo-reservoirs for ...

Geosciences, 2023 In tectonically active areas, such as the Italian peninsula, studying the faults responsible for strong earthquakes is often challenging, especially when the earthquakes occurred in historical times. In such cases, geoscientists need to integrate all the

African Journal of Science and Technology, 2009 The seismotectonics of Zimbabwe is presented in this paper. Data used in the study are from instrumental records for the period 1910-1991 sourced from available seismological bulletins. Earthquake magnitudes are unified to surface-wave magnitude (Ms), facilitating easy evaluation of seismicity of the region. Seismicity is confined to regions with broad

The recent tectonic stress field of the Amur region
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2018 The Amur region (Priamurie) is located in the NE part of the Amur lithospheric plate and its surrounding territories. Seismic activity is moderate in Priamurie, and the regional earthquakes, including the strongest ones, occur mainly in three seismic ...
