The inverted Triassic rift of the Marrakech High Atlas : a reappraisal of basin geometries and faulting histories [PDF]
, 2015 The High Atlas of Morocco is an aborted rift developed during the Triassic-Jurassic and moderately inverted during the Cenozoic. The Marrakech High Atlas, with large exposures of basement and Triassic early syn-rift deposits, is ideal to investigate the ...

The 1988 and 1990 Upland Earthquakes: Left-Lateral Faulting Adjacent to the Central Transverse Ranges [PDF]
, 1991 Two earthquakes (M_L=4.6 and M_L=5.2) occurred at almost the same location in Upland, southern California, in June 1988 and February 1990 and had similar strike-slip focal mechanisms with left-lateral motion on a northeast striking plane.

Remote SensingThe 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 ...

The structure and composition of exhumed faults, and their implications for seismic processes [PDF]
, 2000 Field studies of faults exhumed from seismogenic depths provide useful data to constrain seismologic models of fault zone processes and properties. Data collected on the San Andreas Fault in the San Gabriel Mountains has shown that large-displacement ...

Long short-term memory networks for earthquake detection in Venezuelan regions [PDF]
, 2019 Reliable earthquake detection and location algorithms are necessary to properly catalog and analyze the continuously growing seismic records. This paper reports the results of applying Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks to single-station three ...

Onset of aseismic creep on major strike-slip faults
Geology, 2012 Time series analysis of spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data, GPS measurements, and field observations reveal that the central section of the Izmit (Turkey) fault that slipped with a supershear rupture velocity in the A.D. 1999, M w 7.4, Izmit earthquake began creeping aseismically following the earthquake. Rapid initial postseismic afterslip

The relationship of extensional and compressional tectonics to a Precambrian fracture system in the eastern overthrust belt, USA [PDF]
The central and southern Appalachians have a long history of interrelated extensional and compressional tectonics. It is proposed that each episode was controlled by a reactivation of a fracture system in the Precambrian basement.

Seismic Identification and Characterization of Deep Strike-Slip Faults in the Tarim Craton Basin
Applied SciencesThrough hydrocarbon explorations, deep carbonate reservoirs within a craton were determined to be influenced by deep strike-slip faults, which exhibit small displacements and are challenging to identify.

Strike-slip faulting, wrinkle ridges, and time variable stress states in the Coprates Region of Mars [PDF]
The existence of strike-slip faults was recently documented in two locations on Mars. Two clear examples are reviewed located southeast of Valles Marineris and preliminary evidence is presented for more widespread strike-slip deformation elsewhere in ...
