Microscopic Characteristics of Fault Gouge in Minor-Surface-Rupture Faults: A Case Study in the Longmenshan Fault Zone, Eastern Tibetan
Active faults with potential earthquake magnitude of 6–7 are often incorrectly identified as non-Holocene active faults by traditional geological methods because their co-seismic displacements were very small or even did not reach to surface, and are defined as minor-surface-rupture faults. Geologic...
