With different styles of faulting, the eastern Ionian Sea is an ideal natural laboratory to
investigate interactions between adjacent faults during strong earthquakes. The 2018 M w …

Subduction systems globally terminate, allowing plate-motion to be transferred from the
oceanic megathrust onto continental and/or oceanic transform faults. The mechanism of this …

In this study we utilize regional and teleseismic earthquake moment tensor solutions in order
to infer the contemporary crustal stress in the Greek region. We focus on crustal earthquakes …

Fault generated melt, pseudotachylyte, is an established indicator of palaeoseismic faulting.
The existing consensus that frictionally induced melting occurs within the classic …

A 3-D method to evaluate the reactivation potential of fault planes is proposed. The method
can be applied to cohesive or noncohesive faults whatever their orientation and without any …

We analyzed a large number of focal mechanisms and relocated earthquake hypocenters to
investigate the geodynamics of western Greece, the most seismically active part of the …

Studies on earthquakes that occurred in the early instrumental period of seismology are of
importance for the seismic hazard assessment and are still under investigation since new …

The tectonic setting of western Peloponnese and central Ionian Islands, Greece, is
characterized by the subduction of the oceanic African plate beneath the Aegean micro …

Ground deformation studies based on Differential GPS (DGPS) measurements and
Permanent Scatterer Interferometric (PSI) analysis have been conducted on the islands of …

A crustal-scale N130° E strike-slip fault in the Ubaye-Argentera area, southwestern French-
Italian Alps, was the locus of a seismic swarm in 2003-2004. Its reactivation is examined by …
