The Sea of Marmara is a tectonically active basin that straddles the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), major strike-slip fault separates Eurasian and tectonic plates. Main (MMF), which part NAFZ, contains an approximately 150 km long seismotectonic segment has not ruptured since 1766. A key question for seismic hazard risk assessment whether or next rupture along this likely to produce one ear...

The use of different probability distributions as described by the Exponential, Pareto, Lognormal, Rayleigh, and Gama probability functions applied to estimation the time of the next great earthquake (Ms≥6.0) in different seismotectonic provinces of Iran. This prediction is based on the information about past earthquake occurrences in the given region and the basic assumption that future seismi...

The South Chile ridge (SCR) intersects the Patagonian trench around 46°09′S, forming triple junction among Antarctic, Nazca, and America plates. Subduction of SCR since ~18 Ma produced opening a slab window beneath Patagonia noticeable magmatic gap in cordillera, profuse volcanism topographic uplift retroarc. To study seismicity distribution present-day stress resulting from this particular fra...

Abstract. First analyses of landslide distribution and triggering factors are presented for the region affected by 14 August 2021 earthquake (Mw=7.2) in Nippes Department, Haiti. Landslide mapping was mainly carried out comparing pre- post-event remote imagery (?0.5–1 m resolution) available on Google Earth Pro® Sentinel-2 (10 satellite images. The first covered about 50 % (for before completio...

The Middle Atlas Mountains in Morocco are best known for their slope-active movements, where lithology, topographic relief, and seismotectonic likely to cause slope instability problems. This study focused on geomorphological geological investigations palaeo-landslide blocked dammed the Tamourghout river main bed (Taza, Morroco). paper is essential due enormous proportions of landslide also bec...
