Satellite thermal surveys to detecting hidden active faults and fault termination, Case study of Quchan fault, NE Iran
The Quchan fault is located in Quchan - Shirvan area which is a part of Chenaran- Bojnourd plain in Kopeh-Dagh zone, NE Iran. The Quchan active fault with northwest – southeast trending is one of the most important strike-slip faults in the area which its activity led to the numerous historical and instrumental earthquakes. The Neo-tectonic activities of this fault are investigated by the drain...
متن کاملGeomorphic constraints on listric thrust faulting: Implications for active deformation in the Mackenzie Basin, South Island, New Zealand
[1] Deformed fluvial terraces preserved over active thrust-related folds record the kinematics of folding as fault slip accumulates on the underlying thrust. In the Mackenzie Basin of southern New Zealand, the kinematics revealed by folded fluvial terraces along the active Ostler and Irishman Creek fault zones are inconsistent with traditional models for thrust-related folding in which spatiall...

متن کاملActive tectonic evidences related to the Main Recent Fault in the Sarvabad region, NW Iran
-Introduction The Main Recent Fault (MRF) is a seismic structure on the northwestern boundary of the Zagros belt and southern border of the Sanandaj-Sirjan belt. This fault as a major strike-slip fault consists of several segments in the Zagros collision zone. The seismic activity of the southwestern segments is greater than the northwestern segments. Several earthquake events have occurred al...
