Source model for the 1997 Zirkuh earthquake (MW: 7.2) in Iran derived from JERS and ERS InSAR observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present the first detailed source model of the 1997 M7.2 Zirkuh earthquake that ruptured the entire Abiz fault in East Iran producing a 125 km long, bended and segmented fault trace.

Distribution of strike‐slip faults on Europa [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2000
Study of four different regions on Europa imaged by the Galileo spacecraft during its first 15 orbits has revealed 117 strike‐slip faults. Europa appears to form preferentially right‐lateral faults in the southern hemisphere and left‐lateral faults in the northern hemisphere.

Neotectonics of the Sumatran fault, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The 1900-km-long, trench-parallel Sumatran fault accommodates a significant amount of the right-lateral component of oblique convergence between the Eurasian and Indian/Australian plates from 10°N to 7°S.

Stress tensor inversion in Western Greece using earthquake focal mechanisms from the Kozani-Grevena 1995 seismic sequence

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1999
Stress tensor inversion has been applied to estimate principal stress axes orientations in Western Greece, from 178 earthquake fault plane solutions from the Kozani-Grevena May 13, 1995 sequence.

Seismic source in the Iberian-African plate boundary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The plate boundary between Iberia and Africa has been studied using data on seismicity and focal mechanisms. The region has been divided into three areas: A; the Gulf of Cadiz; B, the Betics, Alboran Sea and northern Morocco; and C, Algeria.

Role of Intraplate Strike-Slip Earthquakes in Accommodating Convergence Across the Eastern Himalayan Plate Boundary System [PDF]

open access: yesLithosphere
North-East India, at the eastern extremity of the Himalaya, is one of the most rapidly deforming intraplate regions. The tectonics of this region is shaped by oblique convergence between two nearly perpendicular plate boundaries of the Eastern Himalaya ...

Effects of inherited structures on inversion tectonics: Examples from the Asturian Basin (NW Iberian Peninsula) interpreted in a Computer Assisted Virtual Environment (CAVE) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Map shows mid-nineteenth century Texas counties, major cities, towns, roads, railroads, and areas of Native American habitation. Includes detailed notes on map.

Subduction and vertical coastal motions in the eastern Mediterranean [PDF]

open access: yes
Convergence in the eastern Mediterranean of oceanic Nubia with Anatolia and the Aegean is complex and poorly understood. Large volumes of sediment obscure the shallow structure of the subduction zone, and since much of the convergence is accommodated ...

Faulting patterns in the Lower Yarmouk Gorge potentially influence groundwater flow paths [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Recent studies investigating groundwater parameters, e.g., heads, chemical composition, and heat transfer, argued that groundwater flow paths in the Lower Yarmouk Gorge (LYG) area are controlled by geological features such as faults or dikes.

Triggered seismicity associated with the 1990 Nicoya, Costa Rica, M-w=7.0 earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The 25 March 1990 (M-w = 7.0) subduction megathrust earthquake that occurred offshore the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica, produced a large number of aftershocks on the subduction plate interface as expected and preceded an unusual sequence of earthquakes ...
