the lut block in eastern iran is a micro-continental block within the convergent orogen between the arabian, eurasian and indian plates. large areas of the north-central, eastern, and western lut block are covered by volcanic rocks of paleogene, neogene and quaternary age.  peak volcanic activity took place in the north-central part of the lut block during the eocene, and then dramatically decr...

Abstract One outcrop of the NE–SW-trending fault with a steep occurrence and grown gouge was discovered in north segment Tangshan zone during field survey near Jujialing village on Kaiping-Guye boundary Hebei province, North China. This has received less attention seismic geologic surveys. In addition, three neighboring parallel NE trending scarps heights range 1–1.5 m were generally flat terra...

This research assessed stress regimes and fields in eastern Iran using fault-slip data the tectonic events associated with these changes. Our analysis of brittle structures Shekarab Mountains revealed significant changes from late Cretaceous to Quaternary. Reconstructing age sense fault movements showed that during Cretaceous, direction maximum horizontal axes (?1) under a compressional regime ...

The Carboneras fault is one of three principal Cenozoic strike-slip faults in the Betic Cordillera of southeastern Spain. In this study, we characterize the paleoseismic history of the Carboneras fault by examining the evidence for lateral offset of 85-180 ka ‘Iyrrhenian marine terraces, by dating the left-lateral stream-channel offsets in La Serrata, and by postulating a late Holocene coastal ...
