Research on neotectonics and related seismicity has hitherto been mostly focused on active
plate boundaries that are characterized by generally high levels of earthquake activity …

Paleoseismological trenching studies constrain recurrence times and magnitudes of faulting
events and earthquakes on active faults. In a trench along the central part of the Peel …

The tectonic and fluvial setting of the Rhine-Meuse river system in the Lower Rhine
Embayment rift system is exceptionally well known. The 19th century, pre-regulation river …

We describe a new numerical approach to constrain the three‐dimensional (3‐D) pattern of
fault reactivation. Taking advantage of the knowledge of the tectonic stress field, the ratio of …

Abstract The Lower Rhine Graben (LRG) straddling the border zone of Belgium, the
Netherlands, and Germany, is an active tectonic structure in continental northwest Europe. It …

The Lower Meuse Valley crosses the Roer Valley Rift System and provides an outstanding
example of well-preserved late glacial and Holocene river terraces. The formation …

Geomorphology is a principal tool for Neotectonics, Earthquake Geology and
Paleoseismology. However, it is also a major tool for seismic hazard assessment. There is …

Historical records were used for the compilation of a database of sinkholes resulted from
collapses of abandoned shallow underground limestone quarries (mines) in two villages in …

The fluvial history of the northern Lower Rhine Embayment shows interplay of three main
river systems: Rhine, Meuse and smaller rivers draining the central and northern part of …

The western and eastern zones of the Qiongdongnan Basin (China) show clear contrasts in
sub‐basin distribution, fault orientation, and structural styles. Generally, pre‐existing …
