The Afghanistan Earthquake of 21 June 2022: The Role of Compressional Step-Overs in Seismogenesis

open access: yesGeosciences
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

Optimal representation of our knowledge about seismic sources for PSHA in low deformation areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
characterization of the seismic sources, the definition of the attenuation law and the computation of the probabilistic seismic hazard. Our work is focus on the first two steps.

A New Viewpoint for Seismotectonic Zoning

open access: yesAmerican 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 ...

Quaternary Segmentation Characteristics of the Hunhe Fault, Northeast China

open access: yesApplied Sciences
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

Structural configuration of the Teras fault (southern Basin and Range Province) and its rupture in the 3 May 1887 MW 7.5 Sonora, Mexico earthquake

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
During the great 3 May 1887 Sonoran earthquake (surface rupture end-to-end length: 101.8 km; MW = 7.5±0.3), an array of three north-south striking Basin and Range Province faults (from north to south Pitáycachi, Teras, and Otates) snapped along 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]

open access: yes, 2017
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]

open access: yesGeofísica Internacional, 2001
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 ...
