Slip inversion along inner fore-arc faults, eastern Tohoku, Japan [PDF]

, 2017
The kinematics of deformation in the overriding plate of convergent margins may vary across timescales ranging from a single seismic cycle to many millions of years.

Tectonic control on great earthquake periodicity in south-central Chile

Communications Earth & Environment
Multi-millennial records of great megathrust earthquakes have highlighted differences in periodicity and recurrence behavior. Understanding tectonic processes responsible for these differences is relevant for fault mechanics and hazard models.

Holocene climate oscillations, seismotectonic events and human–environmental interactions reconstructed from the Giannades palaeolake on Corfu (Eastern Mediterranean, Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean is particularly sensitive to rapid climate changes (RCCs) during the Holocene. An increasing number of natural climate archives revealed that socio‐economic developments were influenced by such RCCs since the Palaeolithic. However, multi‐millennial and high‐resolution archives are still rare and often located in mountainous ...

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]

, 2011
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Subduction Zones: A Short Review

, 2023
Subduction zones are locations on Earth where the oceanic material of one tectonic plate dives below the material (oceanic or continental) of another tectonic plate into the mantle. They are the most complex and dramatic tectonic features on our home planet and have been the subject of intense investigations, some of which pre-date the advent of the ...

Unveiling the Crystal Structure of Sanidine: A Polarized Raman and Ab Initio Simulation Exploration

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
This study combines polarized Raman spectroscopy and ab initio calculations to assign theoretical vibrational modes to observed spectra. Polarized Raman spectra were collected in six geometries (40–1200 cm−1). Theoretical predictions via DFT show good agreement with experiments, though some discrepancies point to influences like trace elements and ...

A Comparative Study of the Sumatran Subduction-Zone Earthquakes of 1935 and 1984 [PDF]

, 2002
A M_s 7.7 earthquake struck the western, equatorial coast of Sumatra in December 1935. It was the largest event in the region since the two devastating giant earthquakes of 1833 and 1861.

New Advances in the Deep Structure of the Pamir Plateau: A Review

Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pamir Plateau is situated at the northwestern edge of the India–Eurasia Plate collision zone, making it a key region for studying continental collision and plateau uplift. The deep structure and dynamic processes of this region have long been of great scientific interest.
