New active faults on Eurasian-Arabian collision zone: Tectonic activity of Özyurt and Gülsünler faults (Eastern Anatolian Plateau, Van-Turkey) [PDF]

Geologica Acta, 2017
The Eastern Anatolian Plateau emerges from the continental collision between Arabian and Eurasian plates where intense seismicity related to the ongoing convergence characterizes the southern part of the plateau.

Recent paleoseismic investigations in Northern and Western Thailand [PDF]

Annals of Geophysics, 2003
Recent paleoseismic investigations have identified a number of active faults in Northern and Western Thailand. Northern Thailand is an intraplate basin and range province, comprised of north-south-trending Cenozoic intermontane grabens and half

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

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 ...

Lithospheric models supported by the Caribbean and Levant examples help rethink transpression at plate boundaries [PDF]

Nature Communications
Strike-slip restraining bends, such as the Levant Fault, belonging to push-up systems and the Jamaican fault network, belonging to duplex systems, display a diversity of fault geometries and deformation patterns that reflect distinct modes of ...

Application of a dynamic optimization-based multi-attribute fusion method for fault detection. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The focus of oil and gas exploration in the Tarim Basin has shifted from interlayers to fracture-controlled karsts. A significant oilfield characterized by strike-slip faults was discovered in the Yueman area.

Anatomy of Strike Slip Fault Tsunami-genesis [PDF]

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2021
Tsunami generation from earthquake induced seafloor deformations has long been recognized as a major hazard to coastal areas. Strike-slip faulting has generally been believed as insufficient for triggering large tsunamis, except through the generation of submarine landslides.

Characterization parameters of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults

Shiyou shiyan dizhi, 2023
Strike-slip faults and their related structures have great value for oil and gas exploration. Accurate understanding of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults is crucial to oil and gas exploration in strike-slip structural belts.
