The 2008 Wenchuan earthquake occurred on imbricate, oblique, steeply dipping, slowly
slipping, listric-reverse faults. Measurements of coseismic slip, the distribution of aftershocks …

There is striking evidence that the dynamics of the Earth crust is controlled by a wide variety
of mutually dependent mechanisms acting at different spatial and temporal scales. The …

This essential reference for graduate students and researchers provides a unified treatment
of earthquakes and faulting as two aspects of brittle tectonics at different timescales. The …

In tectonically active mountain belts, landslides contribute significantly to erosion. Statistical
analysis of regional inventories of earthquake-triggered-landslides after large earthquakes …

During earthquakes, slip is often localized on preexisting faults, but it is not well understood
how the structure of crustal faults may contribute to slip localization and energetics. Growing …

В монографии приведены результаты многолетних исследований закономерностей
деформирования нарушений сплошности массивов горных пород. На основе …

We estimate source parameters from spectra of 42367 earthquakes between 1984 and 2005
that occurred in the Parkfield segment of the San Andreas Fault in central California. We use …

Inelastic processes from earthquakes contribute to the formation of fault damage zones that
constitute a permanent sink of strain energy, modify the elastic properties of the shallow …

Three‐dimensional near‐fault coseismic deformation fields from high‐resolution differential
topography provide new information on the behavior of the shallow fault zone in large …

Faults are usually surrounded by damaged zones of lower elastic moduli and seismic wave
velocities than their host rocks. If the interface between the damaged rocks and host rocks is …
