The comparison between crustal stress and surface strain azimuthal patterns has provided new insights into several complex tectonic settings worldwide. Here, we performed such a for Egypt taking account updated datasets of seismological geodetic observations. In north-eastern Egypt, the field shows fan-shaped pattern with WNW–ESE orientation on Cairo region, which progressively rotated to NW–SE...

The Grajcarek Unit of the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB), at boundary between Central (Inner) and Outer Carpathians, resulted from convergence ALCAPA (the Alps–Carpathians–Pannonia) block European plate. strongly deformed slices consist Jurassic–Cretaceous sedimentary rocks associated with Late Cretaceous–Middle Palaeocene synorogenic wild-flysch, breccias olistoliths. Maximum burial temperatures d...

On 6 February 2023 (UTC), an earthquake doublet, consisting of the Mw 7.8 Pazarcik and 7.5 Elbistan earthquake, struck south-central Turkey northwestern Syria, which was largest that occurred in since 1939 Erzincan earthquake. The faulting model this estimated based on coseismic InSAR GPS displacements. In addition, best-fitting indicates both were controlled by predominated left-lateral strike...

The Northern Branch of the North Anatolian Fault System controls and deforms Izmit Basin Sapanca Lake in study area. Unlike Basin, oblique normal faults with WNW–ESE trending maximum length 5 km south basin have contributed to deformation process formation Basin. fault sets mainly incline north. N-S width dextral strike-slip active was determined as 9 at 3.8 basin. Further, minimum principal st...

the nnw-trending dena fault, with 140 km length, cuts the major structures of zagros fold-thrust belt in borujen region. the fault has divided the region in two zones, in which different structural, andmorphological features as well assedimentation and seismtectonic characteristics have developed. this study presents a new interpretation for the kinematics of dena fault based on field evidence....

Decadal forerunning seismic activity is examined for very large, shallow earthquakes along strike-slip and intraplate faults of the world. It includes forerunning shocks of magnitude Mw ≥ 5.0 21 mainshocks 7.5 to 8.6 from 1989 2020. Much occurred at what are interpreted be smaller asperities along peripheries rupture zones great at transform subduction zones. Several asperities as ascerta...

To constrain the timing of rifting in the western, eastern, and northern parts of the Alboran Sea basin, seismic reflectors, corresponding to biostratigraphic boundaries and unconformities from the Miocene to Recent, are correlated using synthetic seismograms. Regions of adjacent coeval compression and extension are found in the Alboran Sea basin. Normal faulting continues in parts of the easte...

The origin of the Aburrá Valley (AV) is proposed as a set coalescent tectonic subbasins located along northern portion Central Cordillera Colombia, Northern Andes Colombia. Itagüí, Medellín, Bello, and Barbosa have developed between Romeral Shear Zone (RSZ) Antioqueño Batholith starting in Late Cenozoic. aim this study to contribute understanding AV neotectonic framework using anisotropy magnet...

Earthquake-related fault slip in the upper hundreds of meters of Earth's surface has remained largely unstudied because of challenges measuring deformation in the near field of a fault rupture. We analyze centimeter-scale accuracy mobile laser scanning (MLS) data of deformed vine rows within ±300 m of the principal surface expression of the M (magnitude) 6.0 2014 South Napa earthquake. Rather t...
