A new paradigm for large earthquakes in stable continental plate interiors
Large earthquakes within stable continental regions (SCR) show that significant amounts of
elastic strain can be released on geological structures far from plate boundary faults, where …

Luminescence dating of fluvial deposits: applications to geomorphic, palaeoseismic and archaeological research
TM Rittenour - Boreas, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Fluvial deposits and landforms are important archives of river response to climate, tectonics
and base level change and are commonly associated with archaeological sites. Unlike …

Long aftershock sequences within continents and implications for earthquake hazard assessment
One of the most powerful features of plate tectonics is that the known plate motions give
insight into both the locations and average recurrence interval of future large earthquakes …

Coseismic river avulsion on surface rupturing faults: Assessing earthquake-induced flood hazard
Surface-rupturing earthquakes can produce fault displacements that abruptly alter the
established course of rivers. Several notable examples of fault rupture–induced river …
