Active Tectonics Revealed by River Profiles along the Puqu Fault
The Puqu Fault is situated in Southern Tibet. It is influenced by the eastward extrusion of Northern Tibet and carries the clockwise rotation followed by the southward extrusion. Thus, the Puqu Fault is bounded by the principal dynamic zones and the tectonic evolution remains active alongside. This study intends to understand the tectonic activity in the Puqu Fault Region from the river profile...
متن کاملfault pattern and estimation of uplift rate along the high zagros thrust fault
(paper pages 133-156) zagros active fold-thrust belt lies on the northern margin of the arabian continental crust it is a young fold-thrust mountain belt currently shortening, thickening and uplifting as a result of the collision of the arabian and iranian plates. rethickening of crust during collisional orogenies could have been carried out by reversal of fault motion along the mesozoic normal...
متن کاملGround-penetrating radar investigation along Pinjore Garden Fault: Implication toward identification of shallow subsurface deformation along active fault, NW Himalaya
CURRENT SCIENCE, VOL. 93, NO. 10, 25 NOVEMBER 2007 1422 *For correspondence. (e-mail: [email protected]) vertical measurements. Also, the time taken by the different stochastic methods is compared. The longer data spans give reliable results as well as less standard deviation for residuals. Using the single-frequency receiver, the standard deviation of the residuals is the same for all three sto...
متن کاملDetection of fault segments based on P–T dihedra analysis along the North Tabriz fault, NW Iran
Detection of fault segments is an essential step for tracking main transverse faults. General observations from field studies as well as attitude measurements can give an overall understanding of the lengths of the segments, but these are not always sufficient to accurately identify and characterize them. In this study, we analyze P–T dihedra variations based on their eigenvalues to detect faul...
متن کاملGroundwater Inrush Caused by the Fault Reactivation and the Climate Impact in the Mining Gafsa Basin (Southwestern Tunisia)
The Gafsa mining basin district in Southwestern Tunisia is one of the most important producers of phosphate in the world. The exploitation of this district started at the beginning of the twentieth century a few years after the first discovery of this valuable resource. The over-exploitation of groundwater to wash the phosphate caused water-level decline in the main aquifers and the corollaries...
