Dear Colleagues,
we kindly invite you to submit an abstract to the session:
Session 185: Active faults evolution: revelations from different timescales
(Scientific theme: 1D- Active tectonics as multi-scalar driving processes)
to be held at 21°INQUA Congress in Rome (Italy) from the 14th to the 20th of July 2023.
Abstract: One of the main unsolved problems in earthquake geology concerns the mechanisms and processes that produce kilometer-scale displacements from successive earthquakes on individual seismogenic faults. Earthquake ruptures, cumulative fault scarps, and geological fault structures result from the same process, observed at different timescales. However, the link between fault properties at long-term (105-6 yr; e.g., total displacement/length and segmentation pattern), mid-term (103-4 yr; e.g., length/height of fault escarpments), and coseismic rupturing requires further study. This is needed to understand better how faults grow and evolve over different time spans in order to provide a coherent and comprehensive view of fault behavior. Thus, investigating both the fault deformation rate at various timescales and the structural interactions through time is critical to developing geological models of deformation and assessing rupturing surface patterns in high seismic hazard areas. Contributions presenting datasets based on various methods in order to quantify the fault displacement and inform models to unravel fault evolution and displacement build-up are welcome (including geomorphology, structural geology, geochronology, paleoseismology, or geodesy). Furthermore, we invite studies that model fault growth and evolution over different timescales.
