Southern Africa is typically considered to belong to a single tectonic plate, Nubia, despite
active faulting along the southwestern branch of the East African Rift System. We analyze …

The Jammu region is located in the Northwestern Himalayas, which has been hit by
moderate to large magnitude earthquakes regularly, including the deadliest 2005 Kashmir …

This paper presents surface deformation associated with the 5.2 magnitude Stilfontein
earthquake of 3 April 2017 using Sentinel-1 data. Analysis involved calculation of vertical …

High-resolution mapping, sampling and analysis of upper Quaternary southern African
continental margin sediments recovered from beyond the Last Glacial Maximum shoreline (> …

This study explores the geomorphological expression and geological context of a normal
fault scarp in a stable continental region (SCR) which we interpret as having failed in large …

Many years have passed since previous national seismic hazard maps were prepared for
South Africa. In those maps, zone-less techniques were applied. The availability of more …

In cratonic interiors, long-lived brittle shear zones host records of polyphase deformation,
representing inherited structures that can host damaging earthquakes. Here, we explore the …

There is controversy about the status of schizoaffective disorder depressive-type (SA-D),
particularly whether it should be considered a form of schizophrenia or a distinct disorder …

Namibia is located in Southern Africa on a Stable Continental Region (SRC). Despite the
fact that a number of earthquakes have been observed or recorded in Namibia since 1910 …

The safe disposal of radioactive waste products remains a challenging and controversial
issue, yet their burial in a stable geological environment is the option favoured by most …
