“…Detailed structural mapping, as well as kinematic and seismogenic characterization of 41 active submarine fault systems, is essential for determining possible fault linkages for potential 42 rupture scenarios and, consequently, for improving the assessment of the seismic and tsunami 43 hazard in densely populated coastal areas. Recent advances in seafloor and subsurface imaging 44 have made it possible to obtain high-resolution seismic and bathymetric data, which can be used to accurately characterize the kinematic patterns and tectonic architecture of submarine faults with unprecedented detail (Armijo et al, 2005;Barnes, 2009;Bartolome et al, 2012;Brothers et al, 2015;Escartín et al, 2016;Gasperini et al, 2011a,b;Gràcia et al, 2012Gràcia et al, , 2006Martínez-Loriente et al, 2013;McNeill et al, 2007;McNeill and Henstock, 2014;Moreno et al, 2016;Perea et al, 2012;Polonia et al, 2012;Sahakian et al, 2017). In addition, methods have been developed to determine the seismogenic potential and earthquake history of single faults based on on-fault marine paleoseismology (e.g.…”
