Tectonic Geomorphology and Seismic Hazard of the Mt Fyffe Section of the Hope Fault

The northeast-trending transpressive Hope fault is a major tectonic element of the active Pacific-Australian plate boundary zone through New Zealand. This study presents geomorphic and paleoseismic field data from the Mt Fyffe section of the Hope fault, which in turn is used to develop a seismic haz...
