The persistent debate over the timing of initial Arabia–Eurasia collision has eluded
consensus for decades, with most estimates ranging widely from~ 50 to 10 Ma along both …

Deep tectonic tremor has been observed along major subduction zones and several
continental strike‐slip faults around the Pacific Rim and the Caribbean. However, it has not …

This paper analyzes and reviews the rapid uplifts of the Earth's crust in the Caucasus that
occurred over the last century. The uplifts were registered by precise repeated state leveling …

Abstract The Greater Caucasus (GC) Mountains within the central Arabia‐Eurasia collision
zone are an archetypal example of a young collisional orogen. However, the mechanisms …

Our objective is to improve the view of the seismicity in the Caucasus region using
instrumental data between 1951 and 2019. To create a comprehensive catalog, we combine …

Fault characterization is a critical step toward improving seismic hazard assessment in the
Georgian Greater Caucasus but is largely absent from the region. Here, a paleoseismic …

Abstract The Greater Caucasus (GC) mountains are the locus of post-Pliocene shortening
within the northcentral Arabia-Eurasia collision. Although recent low-temperature …

Orogenic wedges are common at convergent plate margins and deform internally to
maintain a self‐similar geometry during growth. New structural mapping and …

The Greater Caucasus orogen forms the northern edge of the Arabia-Eurasia collision zone.
Although the orogen has long been assumed to exhibit dominantly thick-skinned style …

Instrumental seismic monitoring has a long history in the Caucasus and started in 1899
when the first seismograph was installed in Tbilisi, Georgia. Much of the analog paper …
