Diagenetic controls on porosity evolution and pore type organisation in microporous carbonate rocks: Evidence for mesogenetic porosity formation

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microporous carbonate rocks typically record complex diagenetic histories driven by microbial activity and fluid interactions within multiple diagenetic environments. The relative roles of meteoric and burial diagenetic processes in pore evolution remain debated, particularly within Cretaceous carbonate systems of the Middle East, as does the ...

Archaean Plate Tectonics in the North Atlantic Craton of West Greenland Revealed by Well-Exposed Horizontal Crustal Tectonics, Island Arcs and Tonalite-Trondhjemite-Granodiorite Complexes

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The 700 km-long North Atlantic Craton (NAC) in West Greenland is arguably the best exposed and most continuous section of Eo-to Neoarchaean crust on Earth.

Cenozoic tropical carbonate platforms in the Santos Basin, SE Brazilian Margin

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical carbonate platforms accompanied the latitudinal shifts of the tropical belt throughout the Cenozoic. Their flat‐topped geometries were influenced by a specific set of processes, including climate and sea‐level changes, carbonate facies, tectonics and continental runoff.

Diapiric ridges and minibasins in the Central High Atlas: impact on geometries and facies distribution (Lower-Middle Jurassic, Morocco)

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin
The Central High Atlas of Morocco is the result of the Alpine tectonic inversion of an intracontinental Mesozoic basin, the infill of which started with thick Upper Triassic clay and evaporite deposition.

The Impact of Mélange Formation on the Rheology and H2O Budget of the Subduction Zone Interface, With Implications for Diapir Nucleation

Geophysical Research Letters
At the subduction zone interface, a combination of mechanical deformation and (fluid‐mediated) chemical mixing of oceanic crust, sediment and mantle lithologies yields heterogeneous mélange lithologies.

Garnet granulites of Sutam River middle current sutam river (Aldan Shield) as possible indicators of metamorhosed and tectonically displaced Post-Hadean weathering crust

Литосфера, 2017
The article discusses the problem of the nature of high-alumina garnet granulites from Sutam River (Aldan Shield). The studies revealed that the majority of detrital grains have U-Pb age of up to 1.92 Ga; however the zircon grain of 3.94 Ga has been for ...

The July-December 2022 earthquake sequence in the southeastern Fars arc of Zagros mountains, Iran

Seismica, 2023
Within two hours on 01 July 2023, three earthquakes of Mw 5.8-6.0 hit the SE Fars arc, Iran. In the following months, the region characterized by the collision of the Iranian and the Arabian plate, thrust faulting, and salt diapirism was stroke by more ...

Multi‐proxy sequence stratigraphy of a mixed carbonate–siliciclastic shelf across the Jurassic–Cretaceous transition

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 4, September 2026.
An integrated facies, MS and XRF‐based approach applied to the Tithonian–Berriasian Sidi Khalif Formation (central Tunisia) resolves five Tithonian and eight Berriasian third‐order sequences, showing how mixed carbonate–siliciclastic shelves record coupled eustatic, climatic and tectonic controls and providing a transferable template for similar mud ...

Salt diapirism constrained by the stratigraphical record of adjacent basins: the Estopanyà Syncline (South-Central Pyrenees, NE Iberian Peninsula)

Journal of Maps
The detailed geological mapping of structural and stratigraphical patterns within the sedimentary succession of the Estopanyà Syncline (South-Central Pyrenees) and surrounding structures provides insights into the evolution of the adjoining diapirs.

Large (∼80 km) Shield Volcanoes on the Moon Possibly Fed by Shallow Magma Reservoirs

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Large shield volcanoes are among the most prominent volcanic structures on terrestrial bodies. The Moon, while volcanically very active in the past and hosting various volcanic features, seems to lack such large shield volcanoes. Here, we report the identification of two lunar volcanic domes (Prinz‐Harbinger and Theophilus) with diameters ...
