Description | Preliminary results of trenching study for late Quaternary slip assessment of the Kosíř fault are given. Other selected examples illustrate the slope-related deformations on fault scarps leading to destruction of the records of older faulting and occasionally producing deformation structures resembling the tectonic ones. |
