Pliocene Sinistral Slip across the Adobe Hills, Eastern California-Western Nevada: Kinematics of Fault Slip Transfer across the Mina Deflection [PDF]
, 2013 The Adobe Hills region (California and Nevada, USA) is a faulted volcanic field located within the western Mina deflection, a right-stepping zone of faults that connects the northern Eastern California shear zone (ECSZ) to the south with the Walker Lane ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract We analyze large‐scale shear zones that are exposed along the equatorial chasmata of Eastern Aphrodite Terra to understand the role of strain localization in the deformation of the Venusian crust. These shear zones dip at low angles opposite to the slopes, forming terraces that expose portions of the shear planes.

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 9, September 2025.Abstract Sant'Anna Pelago is located near the extensional front of the Northern Apennines (Italy) between Modena and Lucca, an area characterized by multiple lateral steps of the NW‐SE striking tectonic system and orographic divide. The region is affected by significant instrumental seismicity with over a thousand recorded events (0.5 < M < 4.8) from ...

Guadalupe pluton–Mariposa Formation age relationships in the southern Sierran Foothills: Onset of Mesozoic subduction in northern California? [PDF]
, 2009 We report a new 153 ± 2 Ma SIMS U-Pb date for zircons from the hypabyssal Guadalupe pluton which crosscuts and contact metamorphoses upper crustal Mariposa slates in the southern Sierra.

New active faults on Eurasian-Arabian collision zone : Tectonic activity of Özyurt and Gülsünler faults (eastern Anatolian Plateau, Van-Turkey) [PDF]
, 2017 The Eastern Anatolian Plateau emerges from the continental collision between Arabian and Eurasian plates where intense seismicity related to the ongoing convergence characterizes the southern part of the plateau. Active deformation in this zone is shared

Proceedings of the Siberian Department of the Section of Earth Sciences of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences. Geology, Exploration and Development of Mineral Deposits, 2018 . Purpose. The work is aimed at studying the faulting dynamics and the types of disjunctive structural traps for ore solutions under alternating movements in the zones of shear, transpression and transtension. Methods.

Transcurrent continental tectonics model [PDF]
, 2004 The Ossa-Morena Zone (SW Iberian Massif) was affected by continuous orogen-parallel transcurrent continental tectonics from the Neoproterozoic to the Carboniferous times, involving transtension (TT) and transpression (TP) processes that co-existed ...
