Holocene slip-rate on the Gowk strike-slip fault and implications for the distribution of tectonic strain in eastern Iran

We provide the first quantitative estimate of the Holocene slip-rate on the Gowk strike-slip fault in eastern Iran. The main active strand of the fault cuts lakebed sediments within the South Golbaf pull-apart basin. Numerous channels incised into the palaeolake surface are displaced right-laterally...
