Hazara Kashmir Syntaxis (HKS) is a complex tec-tonic feature in North Western Himalayan Fold and Thrust Belt. Himalayan Frontal thrust starts from the core of the Syntaxis while other faults like Kotil thrust, Riasi thrust and Tanda fault runs along NS directed Jehlum Fault. Seismicity is distributed along all the parts of the Syntaxis i.e. in the core and along the outer loop but decreases southward...
Due to the subcrustal earthquakes located at the sharp bend of the Southeast Carpathians, Vrancea zone in Romania, placed at conjunction of four tectonic blocks is considered one of the most seismically active areas in Europe with a high potential of seismic hazard. Multispectral and multitemporal satellite images over a period 1989-2006 have been analyzed for recognizing the continuity and regional...
The major requirements of seismic hazard assessment must address mainly the information about the expected location, time and magnitude of the impending strong earthquakes, as well as the scenarios ground motion associated with the possible future seismic events. While the quick notification of seismic events, appears nowadays pretty well established, thanks to the development of regional and local...
This study deals with the remote sensing analysis of landscape response to tectonic forcings and its implications to understand the regional uplift conditions along the Shiveh River and Shiveh Lake in Central Badakhshan-Hindukush-Pamir region. Quantitative remote and field assessments of process-based laws are needed to accurately describe landscape uplift and denudation with respect to tectonics...
Based on Thermal Infrared (TIR) satellite observations, previous studies have been suggesting for decades a relation between TIR anomalies and seismic activity. Among the others, a Robust Satellite data analysis Technique (RST) was proposed which provides a statistically based definition of ?TIR anomalies? and a suitable method for their identification even in very different local (e.g. related to...
