Exploration and application of post-infrared high-temperature infrared stimulated luminescence dating techniques: investigation of marine terrace deposits along the northern San Andreas Fault
… this work are done so via their application to a marine terrace that is displaced by the San Andreas Fault. Corals from the terrace along the Pacific plate, dated with U-series by Muhs et al. (2002), offer an age estimate. Comparison of the pIRIR ages to the U-series ages yield an underestimation, …

Analysis of a Lateral Spreading Case History from the 2007 Pisco, Peru Earthquake
… liquefaction induced seaward displacement of a marine terrace was observed in the Canchamana complex. Later analysis using the pre- and post-earthquake images showed that the lateral displacements were concentrated only on some regions. Despite the lateral homogeneity of the marine terrace, some …

Geological mapping of the inner shelf off Cape Town's Atlantic Seaboard, South Africa
… beaches. A narrow, low-lying coastal plain (marine terrace) in the north merges with coastal cliffs further south. The geomorphology and sedimentology of the coast are closely linked to the underlying geology, influencing the shape of coastal embayments and promontories, as well as the …

Earthquakes and sea-level change in Hokkaido, north-east Japan
… present. Finally, a review of Pleistocene raised marine terrace data shows net uplift over the last c. 330 k yr, with two areas of particularly high uplift at Abashiri and on the Pacific coast near Kushiro. The evidence presented in this research demonstrates that it is incorrect to infer that the …

Quantifying forearc deformation patterns using coastal geomorphic markers
… deformation from geomorphic markers, like marine terraces, have remained qualitative and are based on unrepeatable methods. This contrasts with the increasing resolution of digital elevation models, such as Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) and high-resolution bathymetric surveys. …
