Recent faulting and active shortening of the Middle Atlas Mountains, Morocco, within the diffuse African-Eurasian plate boundary
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The intracontinental Atlas Mountains of northwest Africa are prominent tectonic elements in the broader, diffuse plate boundary zone between the converging African and Eurasian plates. This study focuses on constraining ...
Earthquake interaction along the Sultandagi-Aksehir fault based on InSar and coulomb stress modeling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The evolution of geologic structures along active faults is influenced by crustal deformation associated with several repetitions of the earthquake cycle, in addition to surficial processes accompanying geologic time. This study focuses...
GPS measurements of present day crustal deformation within the Lebanese Restraining Bend along the Dead Sea Transform
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The Lebanese restraining bend is a 200 km long bend with a left lateral sense of slip located along the Dead Sea fault system (DSFS) between 33.2 and 34.6 degrees north latitude. The DSFS is a transform plate boundary fault ...
