Field observations and morphotectonic evaluations on the south of Ulubat Lake Susurluk valley show that dominant active fault pattern consists northeast-southwest east northeast-west southwest right-lateral faults northwestsoutheast normal developing between these strike-slip faults. We redefined in discovered control route River. Based discoveries evaluations, we can claim "bend model" previou...

Morphotectonic indices by representing the longer period of time than recorded earthquake data, are useful in evaluating the tectonic activity of a region. Dashtkhak area is located in Kerman province of Iran, where one of the most active faults, Kouhbanan strike slip fault, passes through. This data article provides a precise level data on mountain fronts and valleys of Dashtkhak region that i...

Regional distance seismic moment tensor determinations and broadband waveforms of moment magnitude 4.6 to 4.9 earthquakes from a November 1997 Long Valley Caldera swarm, during an inflation episode, display evidence of anomalous seismic radiation characterized by non-double couple (NDC) moment tensors with significant volumetric components. Observed coseismic dilation suggests that hydrothermal...

the nw-se trending tus fault is one of the active faults in the north-east of iran . geomorphologic evidences indicate that this fault is active and goes through mashhad city from near tus town. since the population and number of pilgrims in this city are high, the study of the tus fault is of great importance. hence, we have carried out a new investigation to evaluate the hazardous potential o...

Geological structures such as faults play a critical role in the flow of fluids reservoir by affecting its permeability. This study explores Chaman Fault distribution hydrological division, groundwater separation aquifer systems Khojak and basins. The is left-lateral strike-slip transform plate boundary located at border city Chaman, District Killa Abdullah, Balochistan. fault plays an importan...

SCIENCE SUMMARY Site U1309 (Prospectus Site AMFW-01A) is located on the central dome of Atlantis Massif, 15 km west of the median valley axis of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, where the seafloor coincides with a corrugated detachment fault surface. Site U1309 comprises eight holes drilled within 2 km of one another and along a spreading-parallel corridor (see Expedition 304 Site U1309 Site Summary). H...

abstract a mountain glacier, when it occupies a river valley, immediately begins to change the cross-section and profile of that valley. river valleys in mountain areas tends to have v-shaped profiles. glaciers work to widen as well as deepen their valleys and the typical cross-section of a glacial valley is u-shaped. the u-shaped glacial valley is one of the most characteristic of glacial land...

in this study, the quaternary deformation and tectonic activity of saeedabad-chai drainage basin, are assessed using geomorphic approach. this drainage basin is located in northern slope of sahand mountain. north tabriz fault (ntf), is passing from the saeedabad-chai basin. variation in the morphology of mountain front provied the basis for geomorphic assessment of tectonic activity. therefore,...

Abstract Renun Segment is located in the center of Sumatran Fault, parallel to Famous Toba Lake Volcano. The fault cuts thick, and vast Young Tuffs (YTT) deposited ∼74,000 years ago during supervolcano eruptions. It shows a series noticeable dextral strike-slip offsets river valleys that deeply incised tuffs. Our study will determine geological slip rate this location by measuring river-valley ...
