Hazard assessment and formation mechanism of debris flow outbursts in a small watershed of the Linxia Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Linxia Basin is located in the transition zone between the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau and the Loess Plateau in China. Collapse–landslide–debris flow geological disasters are particularly prevalent in this region.

On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.

Critical links and development trends of research on active tectonics

open access: yes, 2023
Following a brief introduction of the general characteristics of active tectonics in China, this study analyzed two new features of large earthquakes with Ms ≥ 7 that have struck continental China since the beginning of the 21st century: (1) Large ...

Alluvial river response to active tectonics in the Dehradun region, Northwest India: A case study of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In environments characterised by active tectonics, it is widely accepted that river morphology will be affected by active fault displacement. For example, there is documented evidence of change in channel slope, channel width, channel braiding patterns ...

Inherited landscapes and sea level change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Enabled by recently gained understanding of deep-seated and surficial Earth processes, a convergence of views between geophysics and sedimentary geology has been quietly taking place over the past several decades.

Spatial‐Compatibility‐Assisted Molecular Intercalation in MXenes

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a solvent–free NH4F–mediated route for simultaneous Al removal and molecular intercalation in MXenes. Intercalants are selected by comparing their crystallographic X, Y, and Z dimensions with the MXene interlayer spacing, establishing a spatial‐compatibility criterion that rationalizes guest–host matching and enables predictive ...

Segmentation of the active Liumugao Fault, NE Tibetan Plateau as revealed by DEM-derived geomorphic indices

open access: yesGeosystems and Geoenvironment, 2022
As the secondary fault of the Niushoushan-Luoshan Fault Zone, the Liumugao Fault records the northeastward expansion of the Tibetan Plateau. Based on WorldDEM data, 11 rivers (R1-R11) that flow across the Liumugao Fault and their drainage basins were ...

Impact of Multiple Faults on the Maximum Credible Ground-Motion Parameters of Large Earthquakes at a Near-Field Site

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The ground-motion simulation of regional-specific earthquake scenarios is crucial for the seismic design of key facilities. Herein, we considered parameter uncertainty in ground-motion simulations and the impact of multiple faults when determining the ...

Morphoneotectonics of the Abruzzo Periadriatic Area (Central Italy): Morphometric Analysis and Morphological Evidence of Tectonics Features

open access: yes, 2021
Drainage basin-scale morphometric analysis and morphological evidence of tectonics represent helpful tools to evaluate and investigate morphoneotectonic processes in tectonically active regions.

Crustal structure and active tectonics in the Eastern Alps

open access: yes, 2010
During the last decade, a series of controlled source seismic experiments brought new insight into the crustal and lithospheric structure of the Eastern Alps and their adjacent tectonic provinces.
