Slip on a mapped normal fault for the 28th December 1908 Messina earthquake (Mw 7.1) in Italy
Marco Meschis,Gerald P. Roberts,Z. K. Mildon,Jennifer Robertson,Alessandro Maria Michetti,J. Faure Walker +5 more
TL;DR: This work uses elastic half-space modelling on non-planar faults, constrained by the geology and geomorphology of the Messina Strait, to replicate levelling data from 1907–1909 and indicates slip on the capable fault with a dip to the east of 70° and 5 m dip-slip at depth.
Temporally constant quaternary uplift rates and their relationship with extensional upper-plate faults in south Crete (Greece), constrained with 36Cl cosmogenic exposure dating
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated how active upper-plate faults in Crete influence uplift above the Hellenic subduction zone and mapped deformed Late Quaternary marine terraces along 17 profiles, across strike of the South Central Crete Fault (SCCF), identified and dated palaeoshorelines using in-situ 36Cl exposure dating on wave-cut platforms, correlated them with the quaternary sea level curve and calculated uplift rates.

TL;DR: The N Cotentin Peninsula (Normandy, France) displays sequences of marine terraces and rasas, the latter being wide Late Cenozoic coastal erosion surfaces that are typical of Western European coasts in Portugal, Spain, France and southern England.

The implications of revised Quaternary palaeoshoreline chronologies for the rates of active extension and uplift in the upper plate of subduction zones
TL;DR: In this article, a synchronous correlation technique was used to determine the chronology of Quaternary palaeoshorelines to test proposed relationships between tectonics, climate and sea-level change.
