A variety of tectonic processes spread along the circum-Mediterranean orogenic belts driven by convergence major plates, episodes slab retreat and lateral vertical mantle flows. Here, we provide an updated view crustal stress strain-rate fields for Albanides belt in eastern Adria-Eurasia boundary. We framed a new geodetic-based source model 2019 Mw6.4 Durrёs earthquake light regional deformatio...

One of the most critical stages in fault-slip data stress analysis is separating fault into homogeneous subsets and selecting a suitable method for each subset. A basic assumption tensor computations that activations occur simultaneously under regime. With rationale, this work aims to attain improvements paleostress reconstruction from polyphase deformed region Voltri Massif Ligurian Alps by us...

We calculated SKS splitting parameters for the California Integrated Seismic Network. In southern California, we also estimated splitting in the upper 100 km using azimuthal anisotropy determined from surface waves. The inferred splitting from surface waves in the mantle lithosphere is small (on average <0.2 sec) compared with SKS splitting (1.5 sec) and obtains a maximum value (0.5 sec) in the...

[1] We use data from campaign and continuous GPS sites in southeast Alaska and the neighboring region of Canada to constrain a regional tectonic block model that estimates block angular velocities and derives a self‐consistent set of fault slip rates from the block motions. Present‐day tectonics in southeast Alaska is strongly influenced by the collision of the Yakutat block. Our model predicts...

[1] A series of sharp bends (oroclines) are recognized in the Paleozoic to early Mesozoic New England Orogen of eastern Australia. The exact geometry and origin of these bends is obscured by voluminous magmatism and is still debated. Here we present zircon U-Pb ages that confirm the lateral continuation of early Permian (296–288 Ma) granitoids and shed new light on the oroclinal structure. Orog...
