Soft-sediment deformation structures of mottled clay in Huizhou Quaternary basin, coastal South China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Tectonically induced liquefaction and the resulting soft-sediment deformation structure (SSDS) can provide useful information on paleo-earthquakes, which is vital for the assessment of geohazard susceptibility in tectonically active regions.

Active Tectonics of the Pyrenees: A review

open access: yesJournal of Iberian Geology, 2012
The Pyrenees have experienced at least seven earthquakes with magnitude M > 5 in the last 400 years. During the last decades, several seismotectonic, neotectonic and paleoseismological studies have focused on identifying the main active structures of the areas experiencing damaging earthquakes.

Variations in Volcanism and Tectonics Along the Hotspot‐Influenced Reykjanes Ridge

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Mapping and sampling four sections of the slow‐spreading Reykjanes Ridge provide insight into how tectonic and volcanic activity varies with distance from the Iceland plume.

Spatial Analysis of Landslides in Relation to Active Tectonics Based on Morphotectonic Indices in Kheirabad River Basin [PDF]

open access: yesپژوهش‌های آبخیزداری, 2022
Neotectonic activity plays an important role in increasing the occurrence of landslides. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship and the extent of landslide occurrence from active tectonics in the Kheirabad River Basin River.

Exploring Active Tectonics in the Dominican Republic [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2010
The devastating 12 January 2010 Haiti earthquake (M = 7.0), which killed an estimated 230,000 people and caused extensive damage to homes and buildings, drew attention to the crucial need for improved knowledge of the active tectonics of the Caribbean region.

Quaternary tectonic and depositional evolution of eastern Srem (northwest Serbia) [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2014
The area of eastern Srem is situated in the southern periphery of the Pannonian basin. Its depositional evolution during the Neogene and the Quaternary has been controlled by tectonic processes. Miocene extensional subsidence was followed by the

Seismotectonic analysis of the Viraayots–Karabakh zone (Armenia) and the adjacent areas of Lesser Caucasus

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2021
The territory of Armenia, although relatively small, is geologically and tectonically complex. Its complexity is not only due to a dense network of faults. It results from a complicated history of tectonic development including several phases of mountain

Recent crustal movement and great earthquakes in Qinghai-Tibet sub-plate

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2011
Crustal movement and incremental-movement data observed repeatedly at GPS stations during 1999–2009 were analyzed to study the effect of two earthquakes of Ms8.1 and Ms8.0 that occurred in 2001 and 2008, respectively, in Qinghai-Tibet sub-plate and its ...

Time Dependencies Between Tectonic Activity of Świebodzice Depression (SW Poland) and Seismic Activity in Poland and Czech Mining Regions [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Since the 1970-ties, large azimuth changes in the equilibrium of quartz horizontal pendulums have been irregularly registered in the Geodynamic Laboratory in Książ. However, azimuth changes of the pendulums did not correlate with meteorological phenomena
