Differential Craton Destruction Controlled by Fossil Structures in the Central North China Craton

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Craton evolution plays a fundamental role in stabilizing the continental lithosphere and the long‐term evolution of Earth's surface environment. The Shanxi Rift Zone (SRZ) within the North China Craton marks an ongoing craton destruction. Detailed lithospheric structure is essential to explain craton destruction.

The effect of thermal fluid derived from mud diapir on sandstone reservoirs in the Yinggehai Basin, South China Sea

Energy Geoscience, 2022
The underground thermal fluid is one of the significant factors controlling the formation and quality of reservoirs. The Huangliu Formation (N1h) in YF1 area of the central depression belt in the Yinggehai Basin, South China Sea, is characterized by ...

Siberian flood basalt magmatism and Mongolia-Okhotsk slab dehydration [PDF]

, 2008
Experimental data combined with numerical calculations suggest that fast subducting slabs are cold enough to carry into the deep mantle a significant portion of the water in antigorite, which transforms with increasing depth to phase A and then to phase ...

Neoarchean Arc Magmatism and Crust Recycling in the Northern Marginal Zone of the Limpopo Complex, Zimbabwe: New Insights From Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopes of a Charnockite Suite

Geological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 566-592, March 2026.
Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...

Seismicity and Seismotectonics in the Cantabrian‐Pyrenean Zone (N Spain) Using a Dense Temporary Network of Broadband Seismic Stations

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Earthquakes in intraplate regions are often scattered and difficult to associate with specific geological structures, requiring detailed surveys to identify active faults. Improving knowledge of local seismicity in these areas is essential for accurate seismic hazard assessment and for safe planning of economic activities that could affect ...

The Impact of Salt Tectonics on the Thermal Evolution and the Petroleum System of Confined Rift Basins: Insights from Basin Modeling of the Nordkapp Basin, Norwegian Barents Sea

Geosciences, 2019
Although the thermal effect of large salt tongues and allochthonous salt sheets in passive margins is described in the literature, little is known about the thermal effect of salt structures in confined rift basins where sub-vertical, closely spaced salt

Some features of deformation structures in an esker on the southern margin of the Fennoscandian shield [PDF]

Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 2018
As a result of melting of the last ice sheet in the southeastern edge of the Fennoscandian shield, ridge structures called eskers were formed. One of these eskers is the subject of our study.

Pockmarks, Mud Volcanoes and Hydrocarbon Seeps in the Northern Gulf of Mexico: Trends and Controls on Widespread Fluid and Gas Venting

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Basin‐scale dataset reveals widespread hydrocarbon venting at the seafloor in the northern Gulf of Mexico. Hydrocarbon release at the seafloor is related to the occurrence of the underlying Louann salt and the gas hydrate stability zone. ABSTRACT The release of hydrocarbons, pore water and fluidized sediments impacts seafloor morphology, marine ...
