A high-resolution relative earthquake location procedure is used to image the fine-scale seismicity structure of the northern Hayward fault, California. The seismicity defines a narrow, near-vertical fault zone containing horizontal alignments of hypocenters extending along the fault zone. The lineations persist over the 15-year observation interval, implying the localization of conditions on t...

To investigate the architecture of transpressional deformation and its long-term relationship to plate motion in southern California, we have studied the deformation pattern and structural geometry of orogeny within the San Andreas fault system. The San Bernardino Mountains have formed recently at the hub of several active structures that intersect the San Andreas fault east of Los Angeles. Thi...

We analyze Bouguer anomalies in/around the focal region of the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake to examine features, such as continuity, segmentation and faulting type, of the active fault zones related to the earthquake. Several derivatives and structural parameters calculated from a gravity gradient tensor are applied to highlight the features. First horizontal and vertical derivatives, as well as a ...

The Kalabagh strike–slip fault, which is characterized by right-lateral movement, part of the northwestern Himalayan foreland fold and thrust belt in Pakistan. This structure marks western eastern terminations Salt Range Surghar Ranges, respectively. No significant (>M6) earthquakes have been reported along Fault recent decades. Here, we take advantage space-borne Sentinel-1A SAR interfe...

Fault slip rate variability over time is a crucial aspect for understanding how single faults interact among each other in fault systems. Several studies worldwide evidence the occurrence of high activity periods with clustering events and synchronization faults, followed by long low (super-cycles). The increasing gathering these phenomena making hazard models quickly evolving challenging seism...

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the differences of kinetic and kinematic variables in middle-aged women with genu varum and normal knee angle during walking and running. Methods: Eight middle-aged women with genu varum (age: 45.12 ±12.74 y, height: 160.62 ± 5.26 cm, weight: 71.75 ± 16.38 kg, right tibiofemoral angle: -4 ± 3.9, left tibiofemoral angle: -5.1 ± 4.6) and 7 wi...

A consistent population bias to detour a vertical-bar barrier preferentially leftwise during approach to inspect a dummy predator was demonstrated in the poeciliid fish Girardinus falcatus. The asymmetry seems to be due to a preferential use of the lateral visual field of the right eye during fixation of biologically relevant stimuli such as a predator. Viewing tests revealed in fact that fish ...
