Seismic Insight on Basement Structure of the Extinct Mid‐Oceanic Ridge in Canada Basin, Arctic Ocean
Abstract The most accepted theory for the formation of the Canada Basin is that it was created during 66° rotation of Arctic Alaska around the Euler pole located near the Mackenzie Delta sometime during the Mesozoic. Gravity and magnetic anomaly data are consistent with an extinct mid‐oceanic ridge (MOR) in the central basin.

New Advances in the Deep Structure of the Pamir Plateau: A Review
Abstract The Pamir Plateau is situated at the northwestern edge of the India–Eurasia Plate collision zone, making it a key region for studying continental collision and plateau uplift. The deep structure and dynamic processes of this region have long been of great scientific interest.

Abstract Giant dyke swarms are important but enigmatic components of magma transport in the Earth and terrestrial planets. Although widely documented on Earth, Venus, and Mars as extending laterally for 100–1,000 s of kilometers from their magma sources, the reasons for this extraordinary lateral propagation are not known.

Exploration of tectonic structures with GOCE in Africa and across-continents [PDF]
The gravity anomaly field over the whole Earth obtained by the GOCE satellite is a revolutionary tool to reveal geologic information on a continental scale for the large areas where conventional gravity measurements have yet to be made.

Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula is a unique sector of the circum‐Pacific continental margin arc where subduction ceased due to a series of ridge‐trench collisions, preserving a relatively un‐deformed magmatic arc. This region, therefore, has the potential to provide key insights into how subduction systems behave during their final stages.

The High Resolution Airborne Resource and Environmental Survey- (Phase 1) (HiRES-1): background, data processing and dissemination and future prospects [PDF]
This report provides an overview of the HiRES-1 airborne geophysical survey of Central England. The BGS and World Geoscience (UK) Ltd. carried out the survey jointly in 1998.

Abstract Risk mitigation in long‐dormant volcanic provinces is often hampered by the lack of information about potential eruptive scenarios. It is the case of the Monts Dore volcanic province (France), where the last eruptive sequence occurred about 7,000 years ago in lake Pavin. While the main recent interests focused on potential limnic eruption from

Abstract The subglacial geology beneath Devon Ice Cap (DIC) is not well understood. An airborne radar study published in 2018 suggested the presence of a hypersaline, subglacial lake beneath DIC where geologic modeling suggested that the source of the brine was an underlying evaporite‐rich sedimentary unit.

AN OVERVIEW OF MAGNETIC METHOD IN MINERAL EXPLORATION [PDF]
In modern times, the economic strength of a nation, the standard of living and independence of her citizens depend on the nation's industrial strength and her economic buoyancy.

Regional mapping of the crustal structure in southern California from receiver functions [PDF]
Lateral variations of the crustal structure in southern California are determined from receiver function (RF) studies using data from the Southern California Seismic Network broadband stations and Los Angeles Regional Seismic Experiment surveys.
