Strong paleoearthquakes along the Talas-Fergana Fault, Kyrgyzstan

Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2014
The Talas-Fergana Fault, the largest strike-slip structure in Centred. Asia, forms an obliquely oriented boundary between the northeastern and southwestern parts of the Tianshan mountain belt.

Earthquakes, faulting, and stress in the Los Angeles Basin [PDF]

, 1990
Since 1920 fourteen moderate-sized (M_L = 4.9–6.4) earthquakes have been reported in the Los Angeles basin. These events are associated with both mappable surficial faults and concealed faults beneath the basin sediments.

Uppermost-Tortonian to present depocentre migration related with segmentation of the Palomares Fault Zone (PFZ), SE Betics, Spain [PDF]

, 2003
The Palomares Fault Zone (PFZ) is one of the main strike-slip brittle shear zones found in the Betics. It is segmented in several faults that have been active between the Upper Tortonian and present day.

Deep transfer learning for seismic characterization of strike-slip faults in karstified carbonates from the northern Tarim basin

Scientific Reports
The largest pre-Mesozoic ultra-deep (> 6000 m) strike-slip fault-controlled oilfield has been discovered in the northern Tarim Basin of northwestern China, and a deeper interpretation of strike-slip faults is crucial for optimizing well trajectory and ...

Analogue modelling of conjugate strike-slip faults

Frontiers in Earth Science
IntroductionScaled analogue modelling had become a powerful tool used by structural geologists to study the geometries and evolution of faults.MethodsWe had successfully simulated the geometry and progressive evolution of conjugate strike-slip faults in three sets of symmetric models with varying sandpack thicknesses and two sets of asymmetric models ...

The 3 December 1988 Pasadena, California earthquake: Evidence for strike-slip motion on the Raymond fault [PDF]

, 1990
The Pasadena earthquake (M_L = 4.9) occurred on 3 December 1988, at a depth of 16 km. The hypocenters of the earthquake and its aftershocks define a east-northeast striking, steeply northwest-dipping surface that projects up to the active surficial trace

Tiechanshan-Tunghsiao anticline earthquake analysis: Implications for northwestern Taiwan potential carbon dioxide storage site seismic hazard

Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
We analyze the seismicity and earthquake focal mechanisms beneath the Tiechanshan-Tunghsiao (TCS-TH) anticline over the last two decades for seismic hazard evaluation of a potential carbon dioxide storage site in northwestern Taiwan.

Study on development mechanism and variability of strike-slip fault-controlled reservoirs regulated by multi-stage structural stress: a case study of the Shunbei area, Tarim Basin

Shiyou shiyan dizhi
The Shunbei oil-and-gas field in the Tarim Basin features a typical strike-slip fault-controlled fractured-vuggy reservoir. The formation of these reservoirs is primarily influenced by fracturing related to structural stress during periods of fault ...

Multi-disciplinary investigations of active faults in the Julian Alps, Slovenia [PDF]

, 2007
UK-Slovenian collaborative research connected to EU COST-Action 625 began in 2003 and has involved interdisciplinary research into the current activity, structural architecture and landscape expression of the Ravne and Idrija strike-slip fault systems in
