The Afghanistan Earthquake of 21 June 2022: The Role of Compressional Step-Overs in Seismogenesis
The Afghanistan earthquake of 21 June 2022 ruptured a ~10 km-long fault segment in the North Waziristan–Bannu fault system (NWBFS) located towards the north of the Katawaz Basin. The earthquake was shallow and reportedly caused widespread devastation. In

A New Viewpoint for Seismotectonic Zoning
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 ...

Quaternary Segmentation Characteristics of the Hunhe Fault, Northeast China
The northern segment of the Tanlu fault zone, which encompasses the Dunhua–Mishan and Yilan–Yitong fault zones, plays a critical role in the tectonic framework of Northeast China. This study focuses on the Hunhe fault, part of the Liaoning segment of the

The 2016 seismic series in the south Alboran Sea: Seismotectonics, Coulomb Failure Stress changes and implications for the active tectonics in the area [PDF]
The Southern Alboran Sea, particularly the area offshore Al Hoceima Bay, presents moderate but continuous seismic activity since the Mw 6.0 1994 Al Hoceima earthquake.

Crustal structure from 2-D gravity and magnetic data modeling, magnetic power spectrum inversion, and seismotectonics in the Laguna Salada basin, northern Baja California, Mexico [PDF]
We have constructed a 2-D model of the crustal structure that accounts for gravity and aeromagnetic data across the Laguna Salada basin, using independent inferences from seismic refraction studies and the Airy-Heiskanen model of isostatic compensation ...
