“…6). There is general agreement that this fault exhibits rightlateral slip with a thrust component (south side up; e.g., Gaedicke et al, 2000;Freitag et al, 2001), with Freitag et al (2001) suggesting that this fault is the onshore extension of a branch of the Bering transform zone (Fig. 1).…”

“…1). Gaedicke et al (2000) and Freitag et al (2001) suggested the continuation of transform faults associated with the Komandorsky block to structures within the Kamchatsky Peninsula. On the other hand, there is no geological or geophysical evidence of direct connections of Komandorsky Island block faults with the Kamchatsky Peninsula.…”

“…We compared measured differences in coastal vertical deformation with active faults onshore of the Kamchatsky Peninsula that intersect the shoreline (Kozhurin 1985(Kozhurin , 1990(Kozhurin , 2004(Kozhurin , 2007(Kozhurin , 2012Gaedicke et al, 2000;Freitag et al, 2001;Baranov et al, 2010;Kozhurin and Pinegina, 2011) to determine if some deformation events may have occurred on these faults. The concordance of active faults with distinct changes in Holocene uplift rates is distinct (Figs.…”

“…6), likely because this portion of the coast is eroded and has only young Holocene sediment (not older than 100-200 yr). Kozhurin (1985) interpreted this fault as predominantly normal, Gaedicke et al (2000) and Freitag et al (2001) as right lateral with some thrust component, and Baranov et al (2010) as predominantly left lateral. From more recent fi eld data, Kozhurin (2012) made three trenches across this fault and reinterpreted it as predominantly thrust (north side up) with a small leftlateral component.…”

International audienceKamchatsky Peninsula lies within a complex meeting place of tectonic plates, in particular, the orthogonal interaction of the west-moving Komandorsky Island block with mainland Kamchatka. Examining the Holocene history of vertical deformation of marine wave-built terraces along the peninsular coast, we differentiated tectonic blocks undergoing uplift and tilting separated by zones of stable or subsided shorelines. We analyzed ∼200 excavations along >30 coastal profiles and quantified vertical deformation on single profiles as well as along the coast using paleoshorelines dated with marker tephras. For the past ∼2000 yr, the average rates of vertical deformation range from about -1 to +7 mm/yr. Uplift patterns are similar to those detected from historical leveling and from mapping of the stage 5e Quaternary marine terrace (ca. 120 ka). Average vertical deformation in the Holocene is highest for the shortest studied time period, from ca. A.D. 250 to 600, and it is several times faster than rates for marine oxygen isotope stage (MIS) 5e terraces. Vertical displacements observed along the coast are most likely coseismic and probably have included subsidence as well as uplift events. Because subsidence is generally associated with erosion, almost surely more prehistoric large earthquakes occurred than are recorded as topographic steps in these terraces. We suggest that the distribution of coastal uplift and subsidence observed along the Kamchatsky Peninsula coastline is qualitatively explained by the squeezing of the Kamchatsky Peninsula block between the Bering and Okhotsk plates, and the Komandorsky Island block

“…Полуостров Камчатский находится между Камчаткой и Алеутской дугой, за западным окон чанием Алеутского трансформного разлома, и его деформации можно связать лишь с давлением со стороны Алеутской дуги. Проявлением коллизии считаются быстрые вертикальные движения и высокие скорости эксгумации доплиоценовых образований в восточной части полуострова [27], формирование плейстоценовых и голоценовых морских террас [11,[40][41][42] и движения по актив ным разломам [1,28].…”
