Fig. 2aDigital elevation model of the RcF-SF (Rachaya Fault - Serghaya Fault) area (location on Figure 1b) showing the different places referred to throughout the text. White boxes indicate the locations of subsequent figures. White arrows indicate the slope break at the base of the northern flank of Mount Hermon. Probable faulting (broken line southwest and northeast) of SF (Serghaya Fault) is after Gomez et al. [2003]. Nemer et al (2008) |
