Continent formation through time [PDF]
, 2014 The continental crust is the primary archive of geological history, and is host to most of our natural resources. Thus, the following remain critical questions in Earth Science, and provide an underlying theme to all of the contributions within this ...

Archean foreland basin tectonics in the Witwatersrand, South Africa [PDF]
The Witwatersrand Basin of South Africa is the best-known of Archean sedimentary basins and contains some of the largest gold reserves in the world. Sediments in the basin include a lower flysch-type sequence and an upper molassic facies, both of which ...

The lithospheric structure of Pangea [PDF]
Lithospheric thickness of continents, obtained from Rayleigh wave tomography, is used to make maps of the lithospheric thickness of Pangea by reconstructing the continental arrangement in the Permian. This approach assumes that lithosphere moves with the

Probabilistic seismic hazard maps for the sultanate of Oman [PDF]
, 2016 This study presents the results of the first probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) in the framework of logic tree for Oman. The earthquake catalogue was homogenized, declustered, and used to define seismotectonic source model that characterizes ...

Malignant melanoma of the urethra: a rare histologic subdivision of vulvar cancer with a poor prognosis [PDF]
, 2012 Malignant melanoma of the urethra is a rare tumour that is difficult to diagnose and treat, resulting in a poor prognosis. In this paper, we present the case of a 65-year-old woman who was referred to a gynaecologist because of a urethral mass that ...

Uncertainty-quantified 3D ambient noise tomography using transdimensional Monte Carlo inversion
Frontiers in Earth ScienceTraditional two-step surface-wave tomography often yields discontinuous models and compound uncertainty. We present the first fully 3-D transdimensional Bayesian inversion with adaptive Voronoi parameterization and reversible-jump MCMC for near-surface ...

Geology and Geochemistry of Hadean Zircon Bearing Supracrustals from Quad Creek, Eastern Beartooth Mountains (Montana, USA) [PDF]
, 2011 Quad Creek Paleoarchean quartzites (~3300 Ma) in Montana contain \u3e3900 Ma detrital zircons. The outcrop-scale geological and geochemical context of these rocks is not well documented.
