Kathmandu rose three feet but Mt. Everest dropped by an inch in quake 2015-05-04T04:00:00Z Constituting what is known as the South Tibetan fault system, these faults share geometric similarities with the thrust faults, but rocks slip along this system in the opposite direction. How The Deadly Nepal Earthquake Happened [Infographic] 2015-04-27T04:00:00Z Geological Survey seismologist Paul Earle said the quake happened on what is known as a "thrust fault." Deaths rise, aid flown in after Nepal quake: Things to Know 2015-04-27T04:00:00Z Unlike the earthquakes that typically strike California, with two plates sliding past each other horizontally, the earthquake in Nepal was caused by a thrust fault, in which two plates collide. Katmandu's poorly constructed buildings worsen quake outcome 2015-04-26T04:00:00Z That effect would be particularly strong for a thrust fault such as the one involved in the Virginia earthquake, Meng says. Hurricane Irene Might Have Triggered Virginia Earthquake Aftershocks 2013-04-22T21:45:00.357Z This thrust fault shook with great earthquakes and produced tsunamis. Why Are There Field Geologists on a Drilling Vessel? 2012-04-15T19:15:00.317Z The collision is still going on, as India moves several centimeters north each year, and this has created an unstable fissure in the planet's crust, known as the Himalayan frontal thrust fault. How The Deadly Nepal Earthquake Happened [Infographic] 2015-04-27T04:00:00Z Geologists are continually discovering new evidence of thrust faults of great magnitude where masses of rock are thrust bodily over other rocks, sometimes for many miles. Climatic Changes Their Nature and Causes 2011-10-28T02:00:24.840Z The focal mechanism shows that the latest rupture was due to movement on a thrust fault, a response to the crust around it being compressed in a north-south direction. A geologist-eye view of the Van earthquake 2011-10-27T18:45:00.173Z We suspect that the only way to get landslides this big is from earthquakes; a thrust fault is mapped through the valley, so this is a reasonable explanation. Scientist at Work: River Sand in Bedrock 2011-08-04T11:48:01Z The ancient limestone above is not appreciably altered, but the lower part is broken up by many oblique thrust faults. Glacier National Park [Montana] 2011-06-21T02:00:29.217Z The straight lines without arrowheads through dots indicate thrust faults. How The Deadly Nepal Earthquake Happened [Infographic] 2015-04-27T04:00:00Z This result is not so different from Heim's as appears at first sight, for Heim made no allowance for unrecognized thrust faults and for the contraction incident to metamorphism. Climatic Changes Their Nature and Causes 2011-10-28T02:00:24.840Z The fault is a thrust fault, in which most of the ground motion during a quake is vertical. Underwater Plate Cuts 400-Mile Gash 2010-02-27T17:58:00Z And so, to save the long established doctrines of a very definite order of successive life-forms, this theory of a "thrust fault" is offered as the best available explanation. Q. E. D., or New Light on the Doctrine of Creation South of these states the folds were more closely appressed, the strata were much broken, and the great thrust faults were formed which have been described already. The Elements of Geology Because of these thick, resistant beds the rocks were bent into wide folds and sheared in places with great thrust faults. The Elements of Geology Faults are of two kinds,—normal faults and thrust faults. The Elements of Geology That quake, which also occurred along a thrust fault, generated a tsunami that killed more than 200,000 people around the Indian Ocean.
