Crustal Thermal Structure and Exhumation Rates in the Southern Alps Near the Central Alpine Fault, New Zealand by Konstantinos Michailos, Rupert Sutherland, John Townend, Martha K. Savage

“…Abstract We investigate orogenic uplift rates and the thermal structure of the crust in the hanging wall of the Alpine Fault, New Zealand, using the hypocenters of 7,719 earthquakes that occurred in the central Southern Alps between late 2008 and early 2017, and previously published thermochronological data. …”

Fluid Flux in Fractured Rock of the Alpine Fault Hanging‐Wall Determined from Temperature Logs in the DFDP‐2B Borehole, New Zealand by Lucie Janku‐Capova, Rupert Sutherland, John Townend, Mai‐Linh Doan, Cécile Massiot, Jamie Coussens, Bernard Célérier

“…Abstract Sixteen temperature logs were acquired during breaks in drilling of the 893m‐deep DFDP‐2B borehole, which is in the Alpine Fault hanging‐wall. The logs record various states of temperature recovery after thermal disturbances induced by mud circulation. …”

Crustal deformation during 1994-1998 due to oblique continental collision in the central Southern Alps, New Zealand, and implications for seismic potential of the Alpine fault by Beavan, J, Moore, M, Pearson, C, Henderson, M, Parsons, B, Bourne, S, England, P, Walcott, D, Blick, G, Darby, D, Hodgkinson, K

“…Strain determined from a small-scale survey network crossing the Alpine fault indicates no significant near-surface aseismic fault slip on the central Alpine fault over the past 25 years. …”

Distribution of present-day vertical deformation across the Southern Alps, New Zealand, from 10 years of GPS data by Beavan, J., Denys, P., Denham, M., Molnar, P., Hager, Bradford H, Herring, Thomas A

“…The estimated vertical rates define a fairly smooth profile across the range, with the highest rates of ∼5 mm/yr found near the crest of the mountains and ∼20–30 km southeast of the Alpine Fault. The distribution of vertical rates supports models based on horizontal velocities from GPS surveys in which interseismic coupling on the Alpine Fault decreases from 100% near the surface to zero by 13–18 km depth.…”

What drives landslide risk? Disaggregating risk analyses, an example from the Franz Josef Glacier and Fox Glacier valleys, New Zealand by S. de Vilder, C. Massey, B. Lukovic, T. Taig, R. Morgenstern

“…Both valleys contain actively retreating glaciers; experience high rainfall; and are proximal to the Alpine Fault, which is a major source of seismic hazard on the west coast. …”

A contribution to better understanding of structural characteristics and tectonic phases of the Boč region, Periadriatic Fault Zone by Lea Žibret

“…The study is important because the study area is located at interaction zone between two major Alpine fault systems: the Periadriatic and the Lavanttal faults.…”

Electrical Properties and Anisotropy of Schists and Fault Rocks from New Zealand’s Southern Alps under Confining Pressure by Emma-Katherine Kluge, Virginia Toy, David Lockner

“…Magnetotelluric models spanning the Pacific–Australian Plate boundary in New Zealand’s South Island indicate a localized zone of low electrical resistivity that is spatially coincident with the ductile mid-crustal part of the Alpine Fault Zone (AFZ). We explored the source of this anomaly by measuring the electrical properties of samples collected from surface outcrops approaching the AFZ that have accommodated a gradient of systematic strain and deformation conditions. …”

Study of the earthquake source process and seismic hazards by Twardzik, C

“…We also observe a stress increase on a large seismic gap of the Alpine Fault, as well as on some portions of the Canterbury Plains that remain today seismically quiet.…”
