On Seismicity and Structural Style of Oceanic Transform Faults: A Field Geological Perspective From the Troodos Ophiolite, Cyprus

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the geological observations from the exhumed Southern Troodos Transform Fault Zone of Cyprus, and discuss their implications for seismogenesis at modern oceanic transform faults.
BookDOI

Scenario-based seismic risk assessment for Malawi using improved information on earthquake sources and local building characteristics

TL;DR: In this article, a scenario-based seismic hazard and risk assessment for Malawi using improved information on earthquake sources and local building characteristics is presented, where a case study is focused upon areas near the Bilila-Mtakataka Fault (south of Lake Malawi).
Journal ArticleDOI

The contemporary force balance in a wide accretionary wedge: numerical models of the southcentral Hikurangi margin of New Zealand

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a geological model based on a depth-converted seismic section, together with physically realistic parameters for fluid pressure, and sediment and décollement friction based on laboratory experiments, to investigate the present-day force balance in the wedge.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tectonic pressure gradients during viscous creep drive fluid flow and brittle failure at the base of the seismogenic zone

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated a vein-bearing shear zone at Sagelvvatn, northern Norwegian Caledonides, where synkinematic quartz veins locally crosscut mylonitic fabric at a high angle and are rotated and folded with the same sense of shear as the mylonite.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence of Seismic Slip on a Large Splay Fault in the Hikurangi Subduction Zone

TL;DR: In this article, the authors address whether splay faults can host seismic slip at shallow ( 1 m) as observed in the 1947 Poverty and Tolaga Bay earthquakes, and show that they do not.
