Subject: Active Tectonics and the Earthquake Cycle at EGU 2014

Dear colleagues and list members,
please consider submitting an abstract to the European Geosciences Union
General Assembly 2014 (27 April - 02 May) for the session:

 TS5.1/NH4.10/SM2.7 (co-sponsored by GSA-SGT)
 Active Tectonics and the Earthquake Cycle
http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2014/session/14602

Conveners:
Matthieu Ferry, Geosciences Montpellier, France
Kris Vanneste, Royal Observatory, Belgium
Esther Hintersgerger, University of Vienna, Austria

Active Tectonics studies may shed light onto the understanding of the
long-term and short-term deformation patterns in intraplate domains and
along plate boundaries. A wide range of approaches such as paleoseismology,
paleogeodesy, paleotsunami investigations, tectonic geomorphology and
high-resolution datation methods bring unprecedented constraints on the
identification of active structures, the distribution of associated
deformation and the size and timing of past earthquakes. This, in turn, may
be used to better understand i) the earthquake cycle through the
characterization of its inter-seismic, co-seismic and post-seismic periods
and ii) related hazard (including earthquake, tsunami and triggered mass
movements) through the characterization of recurrence patterns.
This session seeks contributions on the study of earthquake-prone areas in
interplate and intraplate regions that combine approaches such as
earthquake geology and geomorphology, seismotectonics, geophysical imaging
(including GPR and seismics) and remote sensing (including InSAR and LiDAR
surveys). We also encourage contributions that incorporate such
observations into seismic hazard assessment.

*Deadlines are November 29 for Support Applications and January 19 for
Receipt of Abstracts.*
