Geometry and Kinematics of the Hormuz Salt at Jebel Al Dhanna, United Arab Emirates: Implications for Salt Tectonics and Subsurface Storage

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract The United Arab Emirates government is assessing the potential of Hormuz Salt domes for subsurface storage, aligning with the transition toward clean energy systems and carbon reduction goals. However, the geometry, kinematics, and halokinetic evolution of these salt structures remain poorly constrained.

Magnetotellurics Point to Serpentinization as a Potential Source of Hydrogen in the Bulqizë Ophiolite

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Hydrogen was first detected in the Bulqizë ophiolite massif (Albania) in 1992, and its origin remains uncertain, with hypotheses ranging from active serpentinization to the release of trapped, fossil H2. To constrain the thickness of the ophiolite layer—a key parameter for evaluating hydrogen generation—we conducted a magnetotelluric survey ...

Audio‐Magnetotelluric Survey for Groundwater Investigation in the Al‐Jaww Plain in Eastern Abu Dhabi, Al‐Ain, United Arab Emirates

Earth and Space Science, 2023
The United Arab Emirates (UAE), located in an arid climate zone with low rainfall, relies on shallow aquifers for freshwater. Understanding the depth and extent of such aquifers is crucial for meeting water supply needs.

Flexural Development in the Foreland Basin Adjacent to Northern Oman‐UAE Mountain Belt: Effect of Lithospheric Weakening

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Inception of obduction is a rare phenomenon in the Wilson cycle and requires specific prerequisites to transfer relatively high‐density oceanic lithosphere over the less‐dense continental lithosphere. The world's famous Semail ophiolite belt developed during the Late Cretaceous, when Neo‐Tethyan oceanic lithosphere obducted onto the rifted ...

Coupled Fracture Mechanics‐Geochemical Model of Reaction‐Driven Cracking

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 15, 16 August 2025.
Abstract Reaction‐driven cracking has been discussed for decades. One mechanism is the extension of a microcrack resulting from precipitation. This mechanism can create porosity, permeability and reactive surface area in low‐permeability rock. We model this problem as a fracture loaded over a fraction of its length by a vein.

Numerical Geodynamic Modeling of Buoyancy‐Driven Tethyan‐type Ophiolite Emplacement

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Ophiolites are exposed remnants of oceanic lithosphere that avoid subduction and are instead subaerially exposed, being usually emplaced onto a continental domain. One proposed emplacement mechanism, the Tethyan‐type, requires the subduction of a continental margin beneath an oceanic overriding plate (OP) and subsequent exhumation of the ...

Structure of the NE Oman Mountains: A Review of Robust Geochronological Constraints for Tectonic Models of Ophiolite Obduction and Continental Subduction

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract The Late Cretaceous Semail ophiolite, Oman was emplaced onto the previously passive continental margin of Arabia. Recent geochronology from the ophiolite, its metamorphic sole, and associated high‐pressure (HP) metamorphic rocks have resulted in a proliferation of new tectonic models explaining the sequence of events associated with ophiolite ...

Uplift Dynamics of the Obducted Northeastern Continental Margin of the Arabian Peninsula, Sultanate of Oman

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2023
Eustatic sea level changes and vertical tectonic movements are producing uplifted paleoshorelines. Along subduction zones, uplifted terraces are used to study fault activities and, overall, allow to interpret the tectonic history of plate convergence ...
