Structural evidence on strike slip Kinematic inversion of the Kushk-e-Nosrat Fault zone, Central Iran
NW-tending faults in Central Iran are expected to represent dominant dextral components due to their orientation with respect to the northward motion of the Arabian Plate with respect to Eurasia. However, previously published works, as well as the focal mechanism solution of the area's earthquakes, indicate evidence of sinistral kinematic along the major faults in Central Iran. Here we present ...
متن کاملStrike-slip motion and double ridge formation on Europa
[1] There is abundant observational evidence for strike-slip displacement on the surface of Europa. Strike-slip motion between crustal blocks produces shear heating and an increase in temperature. We model the shear heating within the ice crust using a two-dimensional, finite difference formulation, with a near-surface brittle layer of constant specified thickness and a Newtonian ductile layer ...
متن کاملCurrent slip rates on conjugate strike-slip faults in central Tibet using synthetic aperture radar interferometry
[1] We estimate the current slip rates on active conjugate strike-slip faults in central Tibet using repeat-pass synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). The conjugate fault systems are centered along the east trending Late Jurassic–Early Cretaceous Bangong-Nujiang suture zone and are composed of NE striking left-slip faults to the north and NW striking right-slip faults to the south. T...
متن کاملGeochemical and mineralogical characteristics of fault gouge in the Median Tectonic Line, Japan: evidence for earthquake slip
We carried out geochemical and mineralogical analyses on fault-zone rocks from the Anko section of the Median Tectonic Line in Nagano Prefecture, Japan, to investigate coseismic physicochemical processes in the fault zone. The latest fault zone in the Anko section contains cataclasite, fault breccia, and fault gouge of granitic composition, and brecciated basic schist. Protoliths of the graniti...
متن کاملStrike-slip motion of a mega-splay fault system in the Nankai oblique subduction zone
We evaluated the influence of the trench-parallel component of plate motion on the active fault system within the Nankai accretionary wedge from reflection seismic profiles, high-resolution seafloor bathymetry, and deep-towed sub-bottom profiles. Our study demonstrated that a large portion of the trench-parallel component of oblique plate subduction is released by strike-slip motion along a fau...
