InSAR surface deformation and numeric modeling unravel an active salt diapir in southern Romania [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Salt diapirism is often associated with potential hydrocarbon energy resources, and detecting active diapirs can strongly affect the prospect to discover new gas and oilfields.

An extensive pockmark field on the upper Atlantic margin of Southeast Brazil: spatial analysis and its relationship with salt diapirism [PDF]
Heliyon, 2017 We present new evidence for the existence of a large pockmark field on the continental slope of the Santos Basin, offshore southeast Brazil. A recent high-resolution multibeam bathymetric survey revealed 984 pockmarks across a smooth seabed at water ...

Anatomy and evolution of the Astoin diapiric complex, sub-Alpine fold-and-thrust belt (France)
BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021 The structure of the southwestern branch of the Alpine orogen is affected by the extensive Late Triassic evaporites. These evaporites have been involved in polyphased salt tectonics since the early Liassic, coeval with the Tethyan rifting, and are the ...

Impact of Dead Sea Halo-Karst Development on an Earthen Dike Rehabilitation Project
Geosciences, 2023 From the 1970s, the Dead Sea experienced severe halo-karstification and anthropogenic modifications. Progressively, but at an accelerating rate, subsidence, landslides, and sinkholes have increased in number and magnitude. The hazards’ triggering factors

Structure and origin of the Vaivara Sinimäed hill range, Northeast Estonia [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2013 The distribution, structure and origin of the hill range of Vaivara Sinimäed and bedrock folds are discussed. Many narrow (150–500 m), east- to northeast-trending folds with 1–10 km long axes are found in the studied area.

Structures in Shallow Marine Sediments Associated with Gas and Fluid Migration
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Geological structure changes, including deformations and ruptures, developed in shallow marine sediments are well recognized but were not systematically reviewed in previous studies. These structures, generally developed at a depth less than 1000 m below

Natural gas distribution and reservoir-forming law of the Yinggehai Basin, China
Dizhi lixue xuebao, 2021 Oil-gas exploration in the Yinggehai basin shows, the formation, distribution and preservation of oil and gas resources are closely related to the overpressure system in the diapir zone.
