Extension and associated tectonic exhumation have been described across a diverse
spectrum of geodynamic environments, ranging from lithospheric-scale extension along …

Low-angle normal faults, LANF,(dip< 30°) have been proposed as key-structures for
accommodating crustal extension. In contrast, frictional fault reactivation theory predicts that …

Between 1990 and 1995, we carried out seven Global Positioning System (GPS) campaigns
in the Corinth rift area in order to constrain the spatial and temporal crustal deformation of …

We present the results of a multidisciplinary study of the M s= 6.2, 1995, June 15, Aigion
earthquake (Gulf of Corinth, Greece). In order to constrain the rupture geometry, we used all …

GPS (Global Positioning System) data collected in the Corinth Rift during eleven campaigns
between 1990 and 2001 provide velocities of 57 points with∼ 1. 5 mm yr-1 accuracy …

Information from surface geology, subsurface geology (boreholes, seismic reflection, and
refraction profiles), and seismicity are used to depict the geometry and the possible …

The Gulf of Corinth is often considered as a typical example of a more or less simple half
graben with major border faults to the south and a flexure of the northern shore. This paper …

We examine five areas of mainland Greece where active extension occurs on sub-parallel
systems of normal faults, and where geomorphological and stratigraphic evidence indicates …

We present seismological evidence for the existence of an actively slipping low‐angle
normal fault (15° dip) located in the northern Apennines of Italy. During a temporary seismic …

Extensional faults exposed in the Peloponnesus and mainland Greece, most of which are
described here for the first time, record a transition from regional extension of the Aegean …
