From Oblique Thrust to Strike-Slip Fault: Progressive Stages of an Accretionary Wedge Development Open
Accretionary wedges of orogenic belts develop differently based on the direction of thrusting, which can be perpendicular to oblique to the belt. In the case of oblique thrusting, stress partitioning occurs, which dissects the accretionary…
Revealing Hidden Seismic Histories: Prehistoric Landslides as Indicators of Paleo-Earthquakes in the Outer Western Carpathians Open
Eastern Part of the Czech Republic in the Outer Western Carpathians (OWC), particularly the Javorníky Mts. range along the Czech-Slovakian border, has been traditionally considered a geologically stable region with documented low contempor…

Progressive development of an accretionary wedge margin from oblique thrust to strike-slip fault (Mikulov Fault, Outer Western Carpathians). Open
The Outer Western Carpathians are fractured by several syn-thrust and post-thrust faults. One of them, the Mikulov Fault, has been studied using a combination of surface and subsurface methods. The former comprised the analysis of a LiDAR …
Unusual fault kinematic behaviour and near-surface crustal stress variations before and during an earthquake series in the Vienna Basin (Austria) in spring 202 Open
Short-term earthquake prediction remains one of the primary goals of seismotectonics. Here detailed observations of unusual fault kinematic behaviour and near-surface crustal stress variations are presented from before, during, and shortly…

Under-Dip Toppling in the Outer Western Carpathians: Insight into Investigation of Slope Failures and Implication of Paleo-Seismic Activity Open
The Outer Western Carpathians, situated in the central European segment of the Alpine-Himalayan orogenic zone, present an intriguing case of an accretionary wedge. This region is characterized by Mesozoic and Cenozoic flysch sedimentary ro…
3D active fault kinematic behaviour reveals rapidly alternating near-surface stress states in the Eastern Alps Open
Stress variations in the Earth's crust need to be understood in both the spatial and temporal domains to address a number of pressing societal issues. In this paper, precise three-dimensional records of fault kinematic behaviour obtained b…
A Global Database of Giant Landslides on Volcanic Islands Open
This paper describes a comprehensive online database of giant landslides on volcanic islands compiled by researchers from the Institute of Rock Structure and Mechanics, Czech Academy of Sciences, in the framework of IPL Project 212. The da…
Differentiating between artificial and natural sources of electromagnetic radiation at a seismogenic fault Open
Ultralow frequency (ULF) to low frequency (LF) electromagnetic radiation represents one of the most promising effects of brittle rock strain and microcracking that might be potentially helpful for short term earthquake forecasting. In this…
A contactless positioning system for monitoring discontinuities in three dimensions with geological and geotechnical applications Open
In this paper, a contactless positioning system is presented which has been designed to monitor the kinematic behavior of mechanical discontinuities in three dimensions. The positioning system comprises a neodymium magnet, fixed on one sid…
