Comparative study of the directions of recent tectonic activity according to structural geology research and long term GPS monitoring in the Rychleby Mts., Czech Republic
Abstract
Main aim of this abstract was to determine the principal reactivated fault planes in the area using the structural-geology methods and to compare the structural-geology interpretations with a GPS long term monitoring. The other aims of these studies are to bring up the detail view of the geological structures and to discuss the previously mapped fault zones.
Despite a number of detailed field studies the precise reactivation conditions and tectonic regime in this area remain poorly understood.
