Subduction initiation is an important but still poorly documented process on Earth. Here, we document one of a few cases of ongoing transition between passive and active continental margins by identifying the geometrical and structural signatures that ...

Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]
Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Combination of geochemical- statistical- petrological and crystal size distribution (CSD) as a new confidence in determination of magmatic processes in Kodegan Area (South Khorasan) [PDF]
Eocene volcanic and plutonic rocks exposed in the 90 km south of Khusf, south Khorasan Province. The texture of these rocks is porphyritic, glomeroporphyritic, seriate and poikilitic.

Subparallel thrust and normal faulting in Albania and the roles of gravitational potential energy and rheology contrasts in mountain belts [PDF]
The active tectonics of Albania and surrounding regions, on the eastern margin of the Adriatic Sea, is characterized by subparallel thrust and normal faulting which, we suggest, is likely to be related to gravitational potential energy contrasts between ...

Morphological Significance and Relation of Ecosystems of Submarine Canyons off SW Taiwan
There are four shelf-incising submarine canyons off SW Taiwan. They are distributed along the active continental margin, which is periodically flushed by gravity flows.
