Quantifying the slip rates, spatial distribution and evolution of active normal faults from geomorphic analysis: Field examples from an oblique-extensional graben, southern Turkey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Quantifying the extent to which geomorphic features can be used to extract tectonic signals is a key challenge in the Earth Sciences. Here we analyse the drainage patterns, geomorphic impact, and long profiles of bedrock rivers that drain across and ...

The state of the art of Low-temperature Thermochronology in Brazil

open access: yesJournal of the Geological Survey of Brazil, 2020
Low-temperature thermochronology focuses on the comprehension of the upper crust’s thermal history, where morphotectonic processes take place. We present a robust compilation (1120 data in almost 30 years of research) of fission-track and (U-Th)/He ...
