Neotectonic deformation features in plio-pleistocene coastal aeolianites: palaeoseismology and earthquake hazard implications for the Southern Cape, South Africa

Deformation features within Plio-Pleistocene Bredasdorp Group coastal aeolianites within the Southern Cape, South Africa, have been studied to resolve the neotectonic history of the region, estimate the recent to current upper-crustal stress field, and infer seismic hazard. Previous studies indicate...
