To measure present-day crustal kinematics and quantify active fault slip rates across eastern Iran using long-term geodetic observations.
Analyzed an 11-year time series of continuous and survey-mode Global Positioning System (GPS) observations across eastern Iran.
Computed regional surface velocity fields and modeled strain accumulation across major active fault zones.
Resolved active slip rates and deformation partitioning across key strike-slip and convergent fault systems.
Identified spatial gradients in crustal motion accommodating ongoing convergence between regional tectonic blocks.
