Advective Heat Transport and the Salt Chimney Effect: A Numerical Analysis
Geofluids, 2018 We conducted numerical simulations of coupled fluid and heat transport in an offshore, buried salt diapir environment to determine the effects of advective heat transport and its relation to the so-called “salt chimney effect.” Model sets were designed ...

Distinguishing the effect of diapir growth on magnetic fabrics of syn-diapiric overburden rocks: Basque-Cantabrian basin, Northern Spain [PDF]
, 2017 An analysis of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility was done on Aptian–Albian sediments from the Basque–Cantabrian basin. Samples were collected from 39 sites in the halokinetic sequences of the Bakio, Bermeo, Guernica and Mungia diapirs; 28 sites were ...

Evaporite-karst processes, landforms, and environmental problems [PDF]
, 2008 Evaporite karst is widespread, but relatively unknown when compared with carbonate karst; this special issue addresses that lack of familiarity. Evaporite rocks have much higher solubilities and faster dissolution rates than carbonate rocks and they also

Magma ascent mechanisms in the transition regime from solitary porosity waves to diapirism [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2021 In partially molten regions inside the Earth, melt buoyancy may trigger upwelling of both solid and fluid phases, i.e., diapirism. If the melt is allowed to move separately with respect to the matrix, melt perturbations may evolve into solitary porosity ...

NEW INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ITS CAPACITIES FOR MODELING OF GEOSYSTEMS
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 Numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for free and forced convection in solid and porous media is challenging as an evolution equation for pressure is lacking. An information technology is proposed on the basis of a new system of hydrodynamic

Tectonic setting and evolution of the Morin anorthosite, Grenville province, Quebec [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1970 The Morin Anorthosite Mass underlies an area of 2 500 square kilometers; it consists of three tectonic units: a dome, a diapir and a nappe. The units have in common a large part of their magmatic history, but their tectonic evolution is different.

Rising and falling diapirs, shifting depocenters and flap overturning in the Cretaceous Sopeira and Sant Gervàs subbasins (Ribagorça basin, Southern Pyrenees) [PDF]
, 2016 The halokinetic structure of inverted salt-related continental margins is frequently obliterated by compressional overprinting. The Cretaceous Sopeira and Sant Gervàs subbasins of the Ribagorça basin (South-Central Pyrenees) show evidence of salt-related
