Event deposits in lake sediments provide invaluable chronicles of geodynamic and climatic
natural hazards on multi-millennial timescales. Sediment archives are particularly useful for …

Lacustrine carbonates accumulate in all climates and in any tectonic situation. Their
depositional patterns are assessed through a database involving literature representing …

The Late Pleistocene Lisan Formation preserved next to the Dead Sea provides exceptional
3-D exposures of folds and faults generated during soft-sediment slumping and deformation …

Soft-sediment deformation structures (SSDS) have been the focus of attention for over 150
years. Existing unconstrained definitions allow one to classify a wide range of features under …

During a period of 82 years (1931–2013), 39 genetic terms were introduced for various
deposits. Of the 39 terms, only ten are meaningful in understanding the true depositional …

Abstract The Late Pleistocene Lisan Formation contains superb examples of soft-sediment
deformation generated during gravity-driven slumping and failure down extremely gentle (< …

Large earthquakes (magnitude≥ 7.0) are rare, especially along slow-slipping plate
boundaries. Lack of large earthquakes in the instrumental record enlarges uncertainty of the …

The sedimentary sections that were deposited from the Holocene Dead Sea and its
Pleistocene precursors are excellent archives of the climatic, environmental and seismic …

Accurate probabilistic seismic hazard analysis requires a good knowledge of the recurrence
parameters of the strongest earthquakes in a region. Due to the typical short temporal span …

The Dead Sea Transform is a major strike‐slip fault bounding the Arabia plate and the Sinai
subplate. On the basis of two GPS campaign measurements, 6 years apart, at 17 sites …
