Special Issue: Active Faults in Iberia (Journal of Iberian Geology)

The Journal of Iberian Geology has now published a Special Issue “Active Faults in Iberia“, with J.J. Martínez-Diaz, E. Masana, and M.A. Rodríguez-Pascua as guest editors: J Iber Geol, 38 (1), 201. This volume comprises a great collection of new data on active faults, paleoseismology, intraplate earthquakes, and seismic hazard. One article also introduces the Quaternary Active Faults Database of Iberia. And the best thing is – all articles are open access and available for download!

The Strait of Gibraltar seen from the Sierra San Bartolome near Tarifa, Spain. The beautiful mountain in the background is Morocco's Jebel Musa.

Many thanks to Hector Perea for letting me know about the special volume!
