On STEM of tectonic stress fields in tsunami regions [PDF]
We apply the STEM (Stress Trajectories Element Method) to investigate changes in the stress states as a result of a great earthquake. Two regions are considered: 1) the region affected by the great Sumatran earthquake (26 of December 2004, 9.1M), taking into account data collected before and after the event separately; 2) the region where the recent ...

Geomorphic response to neotectonic activity in the Jura Mountains and in the southern Upper Rhine Graben [PDF]
Present-day tectonic activity at the southern end of the Upper Rhine Graben in central Western Europe is evidenced by significant seismicity, which has been documented over hundreds of years.

Interactions between thin- and thick-skinned tectonics at the northwestern front of the Jura fold-and-thrust belt (eastern France) [PDF]
International audienceThis study investigates spatial and temporal interactions of thin- and thick-skinned tectonics in a classical foreland setting located at the front of the Jura fold-and-thrust belt in eastern France.

Stress field sensitivity analysis in a sedimentary sequence of the Alpine foreland, northern Switzerland [PDF]
The stress field at depth is a relevant parameter for the design of subsurface constructions and reservoir management. Yet the distortion of the regional stress field due to local-scale features such as sedimentary and tectonic structures or topography ...

Geochemistry and tectonic development of Cenozoic magmatism in the Carpathian–Pannonian region [PDF]
This review considers the magmatic processes in the Carpathian–Pannonian Region (CPR) from Early Miocene to Recent times, as well as the contemporaneous magmatism at its southern boundary in the Dinaride and Balkans regions.

Tectonic significance of changes in post-subduction Pliocene-Quaternary magmatism in the south east part of the Carpathian-Pannonian Region [PDF]
The south-eastern part of the Carpathian–Pannonian region records the cessation of convergence between the European platform/Moesia and the Tisza–Dacia microplate.

The Relationship of Small Earthquakes to Strain Accumulation Along Major Faults in Southern California [PDF]
Fault-plane solutions for recent small (ML ≤ 4.6) earthquakes in the central Transverse Ranges, California, were determined using an azimuthally-varying crustal model.

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