... pattern. The 75 km of north-south shortening in the western Kopet Dag-Greater Balkan area can be resolved into 70 km of pure compression, orthogonal to the N120°-oriented Ashgabat fault, and 35 km of dextral slip along this fault. The north-south Iran-Asia relative motion has produced the oblique...

... earthquakes 80% to 100% of those killed are from rural settlements, not from cities. Therefore, the focus of earthquake mitigation needs to be changed from urban centers to rural areas near active faults. Images of earthquake damage distributed by news media focus on the most dramatic collapsed structures...

... of the range parallel to the right-lateral Ashgabat fault at the northern margin of the region ( Fig. 6 a ). Focal mechanisms in this area show north-to-south overthrusting on gently north-dipping planes ( Smith-Rouch, 2006 ). The Gorgan region is a part of the Kopet Dag zone located in northeast Iran in two...
