Temporally varied coastal uplift rates north of the Littoral Fault Zone since the late Quaternary in the northern South China Sea: Insights from the wave-cut platform and cosmogenic exposure dating

Temporally varied coastal uplift rates north of the Littoral Fault Zone since the late Quaternary in the northern South China Sea: Insights from the wave-cut platform and cosmogenic exposure dating

While understanding the long-term slip rate of active normal faults is essential for the comprehensive assessment of seismic activity, it is difficult due to the absence of age control in the erosional bedrock region. The preserved sequence of wave-cut platforms in granite allows exploration of the...
