Palaeolimnology of Lake Sapanca and identification of historic earthquake signals, Northern Anatolian Fault Zone (Turkey) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Lake Sapanca is located on a strand of the Northern Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ, Turkey), where a series of strong earthquakes (Ms >6.0) have occurred over the past hundred years. Identifying prehistoric earthquakes in and around Lake Sapanca is key to a

Architecture of deepwater turbidite lobes: A case study of Carboniferous turbidite outcrop in the Clare Basin, Ireland

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2020
Through lithofacies analysis and architecture anatomy of the Carboniferous Ross Sandstone turbidites outcropped at western Ireland, the depositional model of deepwater turbidite lobes is established.

Impact of turbulence on magnetic alignment in sediments

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Rapidly deposited layers (RDL) such as turbidites or hyperpycnites are mostly studied for their sedimentological properties, but are carefully avoided in paleomagnetic studies due to the disturbances caused by such sudden and rapid sediment accumulation.

A ∼28-kyr Continuous Lacustrine Paleoseismic Record of the Intraplate, Slow-Slipping Fuyun Fault in Northwest China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Fuyun Fault is a typical intraplate, slow-slipping fault, but has been repeatedly ruptured by surface wave magnitude (Ms) ≥ 8.0 earthquakes. The 11 August 1931 Ms 8.0 Fuyun earthquake resulted in more than 10,000 casualties in the sparsely populated ...

Contourite and Turbidite Features in the Middle Caspian Sea and Their Connection to Geohazards Derived from High-Resolution Seismic Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
High fluvial input combined with specific topographic and oceanographic settings in the Caspian Sea create favorable conditions for contourite deposition. For the first time in its middle portion, contourite deposits have been observed in high-resolution

Historic Earthquakes for the Xianshuihe Fault Derived From Lake Mugeco in the Southeastern Margin of the Tibetan Plateau During the Past 300 Years

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The lacustrine deposition with continuity and chronological reliability is one of the important archives to establish paleo-seismic sequences. In this study, sediment short cores were obtained from Lake Mugeco, located in the Selaha section of the ...

Sedimentation of the Lower Cretaceous Xiagou formation and Its Response to Regional Tectonics in the Qingxi Sag, Jiuquan Basin, NW China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Under the constraint of an isochronous sequence stratigraphic framework, sediment infill of the Xiagou Formation reflects the overall control of dynamic tectonic movements and episodic sedimentations in the Qingxi Sag.

Linking Direct Measurements of Turbidity Currents to Submarine Canyon-Floor Deposits

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2019
Submarine canyons are conduits for episodic and powerful sediment density flows (commonly called turbidity currents) that move globally significant amounts of terrestrial sediment and organic carbon into the deep sea, forming some of the largest ...
