COVER: Earthquake-triggered slumps comprising multiple fold-and-thrust systems in the late-Pleistocene Lisan Formation, Perazim Wadi, Dead Sea. Individual slumps are cut across by later clastic dikes that were injected during paleoseismic activity along the Dead Sea fault. A new application of anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) provides an effective tool for resolving the kinematics and dynamics of a wide variety of seismites (e.g., earthquake-triggered slumps, injection clastic dikes) in soft sediments. See “Characterizing seismites with anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility” by Levi et al., p. 827–830.
