Study of Oil Generation Mechanisms in the Diapir Folds Area (Exaggerated Diapirism Alignment)
Applied Sciences (Switzerland)(1) Background: This research examines the study of crude oil generation mechanisms in the Diapir Fold Area (exaggerated diapirism alignment) through two representative cases. The geology of the respective area, along with the tectonics and the formation

Lower plate serpentinite diapirism in the Calabrian Arc subduction complex [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 Understanding subduction zone mechanics and resulting volcanism remains challenging. Here, the authors present seismic reflection profiles from the Mediterranean Sea where serpentinite diapirs are present on the external subduction system of the ...

Seafloor Methane Seepage Related to Salt Diapirism in the Northwestern Part of the German North Sea
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2021 This study focuses on seafloor methane seep sites and their distribution in the northwestern part of the German North Sea. Methane seepage is a common phenomenon along marine shelves and known to occur in the North Sea, but proof of their existence was ...

The role of a salt pillow in deep saline aquifer integrity and shallow groundwater resources [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSalt pillow growth leads to the deformation of the suprasalt strata and can affect geological carbon storage in saline aquifers. A concern for storage sites on land is the drinking water because the impact of the deformation on fluid pathways and ...

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 ...

On the Evolution and Fate of Sediment Diapirs in Subduction Zones
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021 At subduction zones, significant volumes of sediments and other crustal material are carried on top of the downgoing plate past the trench and into the mantle. This represents the dominant process by which material from the Earth's surface is recycled to

Strain analysis in the Orijärvi triangle, southwestern Finland; in perspective of tectonic models [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1999 Finite strain analyses were performed in metavolcanic rocks (agglomerates and pillowed metabasalts) from the Orijärvi area, southwestern Finland. In this area, tight folding (F1) of layered metasedimentary rocks and development of a penetrative axial ...

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 ...
