TerraceM: A Matlab® interface for mapping and modeling marine and lacustrine terraces using high resolution topography. Terracem has beend designed by Dr. Julius Jara-Muñoz, with the cooperation of Professors Daniel Melnick, Kevin Pedoja, and Manfred Strecker, from universities in France, Chile, and Germany.

Morphometric Analysis to Assess Sea level History and Uplift Rate in the Pleistocene Marine Terraces of Chabahar (Iran)

Friday 19 August 2022 at 6:49 pm.

Marine terraces are strain markers that can provide crucial information to asses past sea-level changes in tectonically active coastal realms such as in the Chabahar Peninsula, Iran. Here TerraceM was used to accurately measure the elevation of marine terraces to elucidate their pattern of deformation along the strike. The TerraceM analysis allowed us to elucidate the location of active normal faults and their seismic potential.
