Abstract

This paper discusses application of a structural-morphologic method for interpreting covered territories; in the present case, covered by lava flows. The study resulted in recognizing a network of recent faults and in determining their strike-slip kinematics. The relation of volcanoes and thermal springs to these faults is discussed.
