Distribution and Rates of Quaternary Deformation within the Pampean Flat Slab Segment of the Central Andes of Argentina from 30-32°S
… control of slab geometry, deformation style, and tectonic evolution of structures on upper-plate strain distribution; observe the distribution and relative proportions of shortening accommodated by Quaternary plate-boundary related and intraplate contractional deformation; compare the potential of …

Tectonic and climatic control on the evolution of the Himalayan mountain front
… causing variations of sediment flux and tectonic activity, is therefore one of the most challenging tasks in understanding the spatiotemporal evolution of active mountain belts. The Himalayan mountain belt is one of the most significant Cenozoic collisional mountain belt, formed due to …

Fault interaction at different time- and length scales : the North Tehran thrust and Mosha-Fasham fault (Alborz mountains, Iran)
… deformation zones such a pattern of tectonic activity is still insufficiently understood, because recurrence intervals between seismic events may be on the order of thousands of years, and are thus beyond the resolution of short term measurements based on GPS or instrumentally …

Understanding uplift of the Ethiopian Plateau from longitudinal profile analysis of the Blue Nile drainage system
<p>The Ethiopian Plateau is one of the few tectonically-active regions on Earth that is situated in continental rift zones. About 1.6 km deep gorge of the Nile was carved by the Blue Nile River on the Ethiopian Plateau, as the plateau has been experiencing continuous uplift and exhumation in the …

Multidisciplinary investigations of the Chaman strike-slip fault along the western Indo-Asian collision boundary, Pakistan
… analysis and geomorphic indices of active tectonics reveal northward growth of the thrust with the presence of three water gaps and two wind gaps. Left-lateral displacement along the Chaman fault and uplift along the Spinatizha fault record slip partitioning resulting from the difference in …
