    Reassessing Eastern Mediterranean Tectonics and Earthquake Hazard From the 365 CE Earthquake (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2021-07-21
    Description: The hallmark of great earthquakes in the Mediterranean is the 21 July 365 CE earthquake and tsunami that destroyed cities and killed thousands of people throughout the Eastern Mediterranean. This event is intriguing because most Mediterranean subduction forearcs exhibit pervasive crustal extension and minimal definitive evidence exists for great subduction megathrust earthquakes, consistent with weak seismic coupling. This conundrum has led many to favor rupture of a previously unrecognized upper plate splay fault south of Crete in an M w 8.3–8.5 earthquake, uplifting a Cretan Holocene paleoshoreline by up to 9 m. Similar source mechanisms have been adapted for the region, which are commonly used for seismic and tsunami hazard estimation. We present an alternative model for Holocene paleoshoreline uplift and the 365 CE tsunami that centers on known active normal fault systems offshore of western and southwestern Crete. We use new and published radiocarbon dates and historical records to show that uplift of the Cretan paleoshoreline likely occurred during two or more earthquakes within 2–3 centuries. Visco‐elastic dislocation modeling demonstrates that the rupture of these normal faults fits observed data as well as reverse fault models but requires reduced slip and lower cumulative earthquake energy release (∼M w 7.9). Tsunami modeling shows that normal‐fault ruptures produce strong tsunamis that better match historical reports than a hypothetical reverse fault. Our findings collectively favor the interpretation that damaging earthquakes and tsunamis in the Eastern Mediterranean can originate on normal faults, highlighting the potential hazard from tsunamigenic upper plate normal fault earthquakes.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Most people living and vacationing near the Mediterranean Sea coast are not fully aware of the region's earthquake and tsunami hazard. Here we contribute to understanding the mechanisms for major earthquakes and tsunamis in the Mediterranean by investigating the region's largest historically documented earthquake. The record of this event is thought to be preserved in part as a fossil beach uplifted by up to 9 m on the island of Crete, Greece. Previous studies assumed that the fossil beach was uplifted during a single earthquake in 365 CE. However, our results from the dating of marine fossils that died due to sudden emergence above sea level, and an assessment of existing historical and archeological records, suggest a series of earthquakes that might have incrementally uplifted the fossil beach. We identify and model a previously overlooked source for these earthquakes (normal faults) and tsunamis and find that these sources perform as well as or better than the traditionally assumed earthquake sources when compared to observations. These results highlight the potential importance of considering normal‐fault earthquake sources in regions where tectonic plates converge and identify future research directions for more comprehensive hazard characterization.
    Description: Key Points: We revisit the source mechanism for the largest historical Mediterranean earthquake. Radiocarbon dating, dislocation, and tsunami modeling support rupture of normal faults as the likely source. These findings suggest a significant tsunami and earthquake hazard from normal faults in the upper plate of retreating subduction zones.

    Tectonic significance of ductile deformation in low-grade sandstones in the mesozoic Otago subduction wedge, New Zealand (2011)
    HighWire Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-01-01
    Description: This study demonstrates how ductile strain measurements can determine the tectonic evolution of a large and long-lived subduction wedge. We provide a synthesis of the geology of the South Island of New Zealand, with an emphasis on a wedge tectonics perspective that contrasts with a traditional view that interprets New Zealand geology in the context of terrane collision and accretion. We argue that the Otago subduction wedge evolved in a steady fashion throughout its 290 to 105 Ma history in response to accretion of trench-fill and abyssal-plain sediments, and slow erosion of a subaerially-exposed forearc high. Maximum temperatures for rocks in the flanks of the forearc high were no greater than 150 to 300 {degrees}C, with solution mass-transfer active as the dominant ductile mechanism. The 54 studied samples provide information about the absolute ductile strains acquired all along their flow-path, from the site of accretion to exhumation in the forearc high. We use tensor-averages to estimate strain at a regional scale. These show plane-strain uniaxial flattening, given that the tensor-averages for Sy and Sx are close to one. On average, Sz is approximately 0.77, and this is balanced by a mass loss of about 23 percent. The average Z direction is sub-horizontal in the prowedge and moderately plunging in the retrowedge, a difference attributed to spatial variations in the mode of accretion. We infer that rocks presently in the pro-side of the Otago high were sourced by frontal accretion, and those in the retro-side were underplated. This result highlights the important role of accretion in determining the style of within-wedge deformation, and also demonstrates the benefit of using a tensor-averaging approach to examine regional strain.

    Topographic evolution of the Sierra Nevada measured directly by inversion of low-temperature thermochronology (2012)
    HighWire Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-02-01
    Description: At present, there are at least two competing ideas for the topographic evolution of the Sierra Nevada. One idea is that the Sierra Nevada was formed as a monocline in the Cretaceous, marking the transition from the Great Valley forearc basin to the west, and a high Nevadaplano plateau to the east, similar to the west flank of the modern Altiplano of the Andes. Both the thermochronologic imprint of local relief and the stable isotopic evidence of a topographic rain shadow support this hypothesis. A second idea, supported by geomorphic observations, suggests that the Sierra gained a large fraction of its present elevation as recently as the Pliocene. This recent surface uplift could have been driven by convective removal of the lower part of the lithosphere, the isostatic response to Basin and Range faulting, and/or by changes in dynamic topography associated with deep subduction of the Farallon plate. Here we present the first comprehensive analysis of low-temperature thermochronology in the Sierra Nevada, which indicates that both ideas are likely correct. We show that thermochronology can resolve surface uplift as well as exhumation by measuring long-wavelength topographic evolution relative to sea level. Uplift measurements are possible whenever there is sufficient constraint on vertical rock velocity. The tilting of isochrones, defined as surfaces of equal cooling age, provide this constraint in the Sierra Nevada. Three new factors further distinguish our analysis. The first is that we allow for the local relief and the long-wavelength topography to evolve independently. Second, we use Al-in-Hb barometry to constrain the initial depth of emplacement for the Sierra Nevada plutons. Third, our analysis is tied to a sea-level datum by using the paleo-bathymetric record of the Great Valley basin, where it transitions to the Sierra Nevada batholith. Results indicate that westward tilting of the Sierra Nevada accounts for 2 km of uplift since 20 Ma. Topographic relief increased by a factor of 2. These findings suggest that the Sierra Nevada lost elevation through most of the Tertiary but regained much of its initial elevation following the onset of surface uplift in the Miocene.
