Beryllium-10 is the longest-lived of the seven known unstable isotopes of Be; it results
mostly from the interaction of cosmic radiation, primarily neutrons, with a variety of target …

Earthquake slip distributions are asymmetric along strike, but the reasons for the asymmetry
are unknown. We address this question by establishing empirical relations between …

It is commonly believed that the Po Plain is an area of low seismic haz-ard. This conclusion
is essentially a combination of two factors:(1) the historical record of earthquakes, which …

We present a 10Be production-rate calibration derived from an early Holocene debris-flow
deposit at about 1000m above sea level in the central Southern Alps, New Zealand, in the …

During the last deglaciation, warming over Antarctica was interrupted by a return to colder
conditions from about 14,540 to 12,760 yr ago. This period, known as the Antarctic Cold …

Hypsometry is thought to be sensitive to tectonic uplift rates and lithology differences. In this
study we calculated hypsometric integrals (HIs) using as topographic sources two digital …

Cosmogenic isotope analysis involves the measurement of cosmogenic nuclides that have
accumulated in the upper few metres of the Earth's surface as a result of interactions …

Previously unrecognised thrust faults in eastern Iran were responsible for a destructive
earthquake at Tabas (1978, September 16), which produced over 80 km of distributed and …

A fault scaling law suggests that, over eight orders of magnitude, fault length L is linearly
related to maximum displacement D. Individual faults may therefore retain a constant ratio of …

We use a 2-dimensional thermal-kinematic thrust fault model to generate low-temperature
thermochronometric ages in a fold-and-thrust belt to understand better the rates and timing …
