Microearthquake reveals the lithospheric structure at mid-ocean ridges and oceanic transform faults
Mid-ocean ridge and oceanic transforms are among the most prominent features on the seafloor surface and are crucial for understanding seafloor...

Transform Faults
Transform faults represent one of the three types of plate boundaries. A peculiar aspect of their nature is that they are abruptly transformed into...

Is there activity switching among the continental transform faults in the Eastern Mediterranean region?
The historical and instrumental seismicity records along the continental transform faults in the Eastern Mediterranean region represent periodicities...

Spreading rate dependence of morphological characteristics in global oceanic transform faults
We quantified the systematic variations in global transform fault morphology, revealing a first-order dependence on the spreading rate. (1) The...

Deep hydration and lithospheric thinning at oceanic transform plate boundaries
Transform faults accommodate the lateral motions between lithospheric plates, producing large earthquakes. Away from active transform boundaries,...

Strike-Slip Faults
A strike-slip fault is one that shows horizontal slip parallel to the strike of a vertical or subvertical fault plane. Strike-slip faults are often...

Large Active Faults and the Wharton Basin Intraplate Earthquakes in the Eastern Indian Ocean
In recent years, great earthquakes occurred within the Wharton Basin in the eastern Indian Ocean, and they have been associated with active faulting...
