Constraints on fault and lithosphere rheology from the coseismic slip and postseismic afterslip of the 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique earthquake [PDF]

, 2012
The 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique (Machaze) normal-faulting earthquake ruptured an unusually steeply dipping fault plane (~75°). The amount of slip in the earthquake decreased from depths of ~10 km toward the surface, and this shallow slip deficit was at least

Tsunami Induced by the Strike‐Slip Fault of the 2018 Palu Earthquake (Mw = 7.5), Sulawesi Island, Indonesia

Earth and Space Science, 2021
An unusual devastating tsunami occurred on September 28, 2018 after a strike‐slip faulting earthquake in Sulawesi, Indonesia. The induced tsunami struck Palu city with ∼4‐m flow depth.

Geodetic Constraints on the 2014 M 6.0 South Napa Earthquake [PDF]

, 2015
On 24 August 2014, the M 6.0 South Napa earthquake shook much of the San Francisco Bay area, leading to significant damage in the Napa Valley. The earthquake occurred in the vicinity of the West Napa fault (122.313° W, 38.22° N, 11.3 km), a mapped ...

Segmentation characteristics of strike-slip fault zone and its reservoir control mechanisms in the southwestern Tarim Basin

Frontiers in Earth Science
Understanding how fault-related structures influence oil and gas accumulation is crucial for geological investigations and exploration planning. This study, based on 3D seismic data, analyzes the northeast-trending strike-slip fault zone in the eastern ...

Evidence of Dextral Strike-Slip Movement of the Alakol Lake Fault in the Western Junggar Based on Remote Sensing

Remote Sensing
The NW-SE-trending dextral strike-slip faults on the north side of the Tian Shan, e.g., the Karatau fault, Talas–Fergana fault, Dzhalair–Naiman fault, Aktas fault, Dzhungarian fault, and Chingiz fault, play an important role in accommodating crustal ...

Spectral-element simulations of long-term fault slip: Effect of low-rigidity layers on earthquake-cycle dynamics [PDF]

, 2011
We develop a spectral element method for the simulation of long-term histories of spontaneous seismic and aseismic slip on faults subjected to tectonic loading.

Active Tectonics of the Nantinghe Fault in Southeastern Tibetan Plateau and its Implications for Continental Collision

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Quantifying the structure and kinematics of active faults is the key to understanding the India-Eurasia continental collision. While the boundary faults of blocks in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau region have been under scrutiny for decades, relatively

Strike-slip tectonics in the SW Barents Sea during North Atlantic rifting (Swaen Graben, Northern Norway) [PDF]

, 2017
This study uses high quality, three-dimensional [3-D] seismic data to investigate the occurrence of strike-slip faults in the Swaen Graben, SW Barents Sea. The Swaen Graben is divided into two principal sub-basins:- SSB1 and SSB2.

New insights into the evolution and formation mechanism of SB5 fault: a case study from the Fuman Oilfield, Tarim basin, NW China

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Shunbei 5 (SB5) strike-slip fault, situated in the central Tarim basin, is distinguished by its considerable length, significant variations in planar orientation, and intricate multi-stage tectonic evolution.
