<p>The Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (GreDaSS) is a repository of geological, tectonic and active-fault data for the Greek territory and its surroundings. In this report, we present the state-of-the-art of an on-going project devoted to the building ...

Knowledge on large earthquakes (M 7.0), geology and fault kinematics is used to analyse conditions that favour isolated seismicity, clustered earthquakes or propagating sequencesalong the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) and the Sea of Marmara pull-apart.

In this paper is presented the preliminary paleoseismological trenching results of the active Kaparelli Fault (KF), which ruptured the surface during the 1981 Gulf of Corinth earthquake sequence. The aim of this study is to better understand the past earthquake ...

<p>During the last two decades, seven devastating earthquakes, chronologically, the 1991 Uttarkashi earthquake (mb 6.6) in the western Himalaya, the1993 Killari (mb 6.3) and the 1997 Jabalpur earthquakes (mb 6.0) in the central part of peninsular India shield ...

<p>Investigations of seven devastating earthquakes have been very useful to understand seismotectonics of theStable Continental Region SCR events and the collision zone and subduction zone events of the Indian subcontinent.</p>

<p>Deterministic Seismic Hazard Analysis (DSHA) for the Bangalore, India has been carried out by considering the past earthquakes, assumed subsurface fault ruptur lengths and point source synthetic ground motion model. The sources have been identified using ...

A seismotectonic map shows geologic, seismological, and other information that is pertinent to seismic hazards but previously was scattered among many sources. Afghanistan is part of the Eurasian plate. Afghan seismicity is driven by the relative northward ...

<p>We examine the structure and evolution of the Ghab basin that formed on the active, yet poorly understood, norhtern segment of the Dead Sea transform fault system. The basin formed in Plio-Quaternary time at a complex step-over zone on the fault. Subsidence ...

The new reasearch project to create the Greek Catalogue of Active Faults and Database of Seismogenic Sources has three major goals: (i) the systematic collection of all available information concerning neotectonic, active and capable faults as well as broader ...
