Degradation morphology of scarps can be used to estimate the age of an episode of uplift: linear diffusion models for slope degradation provide analytical solutions relying on simplified geometry and kinematics. In this ...

We relate reverse fault scarp morphology formed by several earthquake dislocations to the average deformation rate, using a morphological dating model based on a diffusion analogue of erosion. Our scarp degradation model ...
Three M>8 earthquakes have occurred in Mongolia during a 52-year period (1905-1957). Since these earthquakes were well separated in space (400 km), the coseismic stress change is far too low (0.001 bar) to explain mutual ...
