LATE QUATERNARY AND HOLOCENE FAULTS OF THE NORTHERN GULF OF CORINTH RIFT, CENTRAL GREECE

Abstract

New results for the recent tectonic activity in the northern part of the Gulf of Corinth rift are presented. Geological mapping and morphotectonic study re populate the area of study with numerous active and possible active faults. The area is dominated by individual and segmented normal faults along with major structures like Marathias and Delphi-Arachova faults. The results are in accordance with recent studies that reveal a more complex and wider structure of Corinth Rift to the north.
