Quaternary rupture of a crustal fault beneath Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]
, 2017 The seismic potential of crustal faults within the forearc of the northern Cascadia subduction zone in British Columbia has remained elusive, despite the recognition of recent seismic activity on nearby fault systems within the Juan de Fuca Strait.

Exploring Active Tectonics in the Dominican Republic [PDF]
Eos, 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.

IDENTIFICATION OF GEOMORPHIC SIGNATURES OF NEOTECTONIC ACTIVITY USING DEM IN THE PRECAMBRIAN TERRAIN OF WESTERN GHATS, INDIA [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012 To assess the relative tectonic activity classes, five geomorphic indices such as stream-gradient index (SL), drainage basin asymmetry (Af), hypsometric integral (Hi), valley floor width – valley height ratio (Vf) and drainage basin shape (Bs) of ...

European continuous active tectonic strain–stress map [PDF]
Tectonophysics, 2009 This paper shows a new continuous strain-stress map for Europe obtained from the direct inversion of earthquake focal mechanisms calculated from the centroid tensor method. A total of 1608 focal mechanisms have been selected with several quality criteria from different catalogues (CMT Harvard, ETH, Med-Net, I.G.N.
