Current slip rates on conjugate strike-slip faults in central Tibet using synthetic aperture radar interferometry
[1] We estimate the current slip rates on active conjugate strike-slip faults in central Tibet using repeat-pass synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). The conjugate fault systems are centered along the east trending Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous Bangong-Nujiang suture zone and are composed of NE striking left-slip faults to the north and NW striking right-slip faults to the south. T...
متن کاملLate Quaternary slip rates across the central Tien Shan, Kyrgyzstan, central Asia
[1] Slip rates across active faults and folds show that late Quaternary faulting is distributed across the central Tien Shan, not concentrated at its margins. Nearly every intermontane basin contains Neogene and Quaternary syntectonic strata deformed by Holocene north-south shortening on thrust or reverse faults. In a region that spans two thirds of the north-south width of the central Tien Sha...
متن کاملDetermination of long-term slip rates of faults in the eastern part of Iran plateau using finite element kinematic model
Since Iran plateau is located in the Alpine-Himalayan Orogenic belt, it is recognized as a region with a high seismic risk. Thus, investigation of geodynamic activities of the faults, their slip rates and corresponding deformation fields is very important for quantification of possible seismic risk in this region. The aim of this study is to analyze the tectonic features of eastern part of Iran...
متن کاملTiming and Rates of Quaternary Normal Faulting in Central Tibet
In Summer 1998, a 400 km long seismic refraction profile (INDEPTH III) was shot in Central Tibet. Apart from recording the signals of 11 shots along the line, the stations also recorded a number of local earthquakes more or less in the extension of the line. Record sections and travel time data from both shots and earthquakes were compiled and interpreted jointly. The following peculiarities ar...
متن کاملThe origin of Quaternary placer using remote sensing and geochemical investigation in Zavarian area, SW of Qom, Central Iran
Introduction Epithermal deposits are usually found in association with near-surface magmatic-hydrothermal environments with volcanic rocks. According to studies, their formation depth is less than 1.5 km and the temperature for their formation is less than 300 ° C. Epithermal deposits are usually rich in gold to gold-silver and rich in silver and include low sulfide, medium sulfide and hig...
