The structural evolution of pull-apart basins in response to changes in plate motion (2021)
Journal Article
Farangitakis, G., McCaffrey, K., Willingshofer, E., Allen, M., Kalnins, L., van Hunen, J., …Sokoutis, D. (2021). The structural evolution of pull-apart basins in response to changes in plate motion. Basin Research, 33(2), 1603-1625. https://doi.org/10.1111/bre.12528

Pull‐apart basins are structural features linked to the interactions between strike‐slip and extensional tectonics. Their morphology and structural evolution are determined by factors such as extension rate, the basin length/width ratio, and changes...

The impact of oblique inheritance and changes in relative plate motion on the development of rift-transform systems (2020)
Journal Article
Farangitakis, G., Heron, P., McCaffrey, K., van Hunen, J., & Kalnins, L. (2020). The impact of oblique inheritance and changes in relative plate motion on the development of rift-transform systems. Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 541, Article 116277. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.epsl.2020.116277

In transform margins, oblique structural inheritance and plate motion vector changes have a direct impact on the margin's morphology and duration of transform activity. We investigate the effect of these two factors using numerical modelling. To simu...

Assessing the impact of different landscape features on post-fire forest recovery with multitemporal remote sensing data: the case of Mount Taygetos (southern Greece) (2019)
Journal Article
Christopoulou, A., Mallinis, G., Vassilakis, E., Farangitakis, G., Fyllas, N. M., Kokkoris, G. D., & Arianoutsou, M. (2019). Assessing the impact of different landscape features on post-fire forest recovery with multitemporal remote sensing data: the case of Mount Taygetos (southern Greece). International Journal of Wildland Fire, 28(7), 521-532. https://doi.org/10.1071/wf18153

Fires affecting large areas usually create a mosaic of recovering plant communities reflecting their pre-fire composition and local conditions of burning. However, post-fire recovery patterns may also reveal the effects of landscape heterogeneity on...

Analogue modeling of plate rotation effects in transform margins and rift-transform intersections (2019)
Journal Article
Farangitakis, G., Sokoutis, D., McCaffrey, K., Willingshofer, E., Kalnins, L., Phethean, J., …van Steen, V. (2019). Analogue modeling of plate rotation effects in transform margins and rift-transform intersections. Tectonics, 13(3), 823-841. https://doi.org/10.1029/2018tc005261

Transform margins are first‐order tectonic features that accommodate oceanic spreading. Uncertainties remain about their evolution, genetic relationship to oceanic spreading, and general structural character. When the relative motion of the plates ch...

Seismic Risk Assessment in the Attica Basin (2017)
Journal Article
Farangitakis, G., Brentas, O., Andreadakis, E., & Lekkas, E. (2017). Seismic Risk Assessment in the Attica Basin. Deltio tīs Ellīnikīs Geōlogikīs Etaireias Δελτίο της Ελληνικής Γεωλογικής Εταιρείας (online), 50(3), 1415-1425. https://doi.org/10.12681/bgsg.11854

This paper aims to determine the exposure-based earthquake risk posed in the Attica Basin, Greece using a GIS based methodology. The hazard level is based on grouped geological formations according to the New Ground Anti-Earthquake Regulation of Gree... Read More about Seismic Risk Assessment in the Attica Basin.
