Paleoseismic evolution of the central section of the Serteng Shan fault at the northern Ordos Block (North China) since the Late Pleistocene

Probing the Upper End of Intracontinental Earthquake Magnitude: A Prehistoric Example From the Dzhungarian and Lepsy Faults of Kazakhstan

“…Although the laterally offset features along S7 are mostly defined as low quality, our measurements based on Pléiades imagery show the smallest offsets are around 6.9–8.4 m (Figures 8b, 8e and 8f). These values happen to be similar to the 6–9 m single‐event offset interpreted by Hu (2019) from examining high‐resolution drone imagery in this area and their further COPD analysis. Adjacent to the Ebinur lake basin the fault becomes hard to trace, leading us to separate this part into a separate Section S6 (Figure 8a).…”

“…(d) A pull‐apart basin (pointed by red arrows) cutting through the fields. Locations of the trench and coverage of the high‐resolution drone imagery from Hu (2019) and Hu et al. (2021) are labeled in “b.” (e) and (f) are the lateral offset channels with the interpretations found along Section S7.…”
