Datos paleomagnéticos en materiales sin-diapíricos Aptienses-Albienses (cuenca Vasco-Cantábrica, N Iberia) [PDF]
, 2017 In order to obtain a kinematic model linking the diapir formation and the geometry of the syn-diapir sediments, a paleomagnetic study has been conducted in selected syn-diapiric sequences of the Basque-Cantabrian Basin. The studied diapirs (Bakio, Bermeo,

Are the Equatorial Highlands on Venus formed by mantle plume diapirs? [PDF]
Several origins have been proposed for the Equatorial Highlands on Venus, including spreading centers and plume-related uplift. Recently, the spreading center hypothesis has been shown to be incompatible with the measured geoid and topography variations ...

Dome craters on Ganymede [PDF]
Voyager observations reveal impact craters on Ganymede that are characterized by the presence of broad, high albedo, topographic domes situated within a central pit. Fifty-seven craters with central domes were identified in images covering approx. 50% of

Surface Deformation and Salt Budget of an Active Salt Fountain, Finu in the Zagros Mountains, Iran, Using Persistent Scatterer Interferometry [PDF]
LithosphereIn subaerial salt diapirs, salt buoyancy drives the vertical flow of salt in the feeder, salt extrusion, and gravity spreading on the surface. The shape of these diapirs is controlled by the balance between buoyancy forces, gravity spreading on the ...
