The 2024 PATA Days took place from 6-11 October in Los Andes, Chile. This was the 11th meeting on Paleoseismology, Active Tectonics, and Archaeoseismology. The conference proceedings with all the 4-page abstracts in now available online and for download at https://libros.uchile.cl/1446.
Many thanks to the organisers for a successful conference and for the unforgettable field trips!
PATA Days are usually organised in the framework of INQUA’s TERPRO Commission.

Here are the latest papers on active tectonics and paleoseismology. Happy 2025 everyone!

In this month’s paper list there are a lot of studies on the US, Greece, and New Zealand, plus interesting stuff from Russia and China and on tsunamis. But don’t miss the methodological papers, for example on underwater photogrammetry. Happy reading!

These are the latest papers, and this time they really have a huge spatial coverage. Enjoy reading and let us know if we’ve missed something!

The 4th International Conference on Structural Analysis of Historical Constructions (SAHC2025) will take place from 15 – 17 September, 2025, in Lausanne. There will be a session on “New perspectives in Archaeoseismology” (SS-7), chaired by Philippe Garnier. Abstract submission deadline is 20 October, 2024, but likely to be prolonged.
These are the latest papers that I came across last month. This time we have a number of studies on strong historical earthquakes and their geological (and archaeological) record, classical paleoseismology that sometimes worked, sometimes not, tectonic landscapes, and much more. Enjoy reading!

Quite a number of articles in this month’s paper list are concerned with what happens or happened offshore in strong earthquakes. But of course there is a also a lot of classical paleoseismology and some new approaches to dating fault slip directly from the fault gouges. Enjoy reading and drop me a note if I have missed something.

This month’s list has everything: classic paleoseismology, tsunami studies, archaeology and historical seismology, lake turbidites from the Alps, deformed soft sediments, folds and faults, tidal notches and geodesy, etc.. Enjoy reading and drop me an email in case I have missed something.

We have a long list of papers this month. Many paleoseismology studies including conceptual work, historical seismology, and interesting geomorphology and tsunami papers. Enjoy reading and let me know if I’ve missed something.
