Morphological impacts of low magnitude seismic events on granite: Viewing certain landforms with new eyes

Several landforms developed in massive brittle rocks located in cratonic settings, and formerly thought to be caused by external agencies, are now attributed to low magnitude seismic events or earth tremors. Field observations and particularly monitoring of specific sites have shown that the frequen...
