Strike-slip fault terminations at seismogenic depths : the structure and kinematics of the Glacier Lakes fault, Sierra Nevada United States [PDF]

, 2008
Structural complexity is common at the terminations of earthquake surface ruptures; similar deformation may therefore be expected at the end zones of earthquake ruptures at depth.

On the use of a split Hopkinson pressure bar in structural geology

, 2022
S.225-236There is increasing evidence that seismogenic fractures can propagate faster than the shear wave velocity of the surrounding rocks. Strain rates within the tip region of such super-shear earthquake ruptures can reach deformation conditions ...

The Central European, Tarim and Siberian Large Igneous Provinces, Late Palaeozoic orogeny and coeval metallogeny [PDF]

, 2014
The formation of the Central European and Tarim Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) in the Early Permian coincided with the demise of the Variscan and the Southern Tianshan orogens, respectively.

Heat Recovery Potential and Hydrochemistry of Mine Water Discharges From Scotland’s Coalfields

Earth Science, Systems and Society, 2022
Prospective and operational mine water geothermal projects worldwide have faced challenges created by mine water chemistry (e.g., iron scaling, corrosion) and high expenditure costs (e.g., drilling or pumping costs) among others.

Characterization of artesian flow and heat transition in an ATES research wellbore using DTS monitoring and numerical modelling [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences
In the practice of Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES), the hydraulic connection to the wellbore of any other aquifers besides the planned thermal storage should be identified and prohibited in order to operate the ATES system in a sustainable way. The

Generation of spatial grids for hydrometeorological data in hydrogeological investigations for Colombia [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences
In Colombia, water resources management is carried out with insufficient hydrometeorological information in most of the territory. Natural and social conditions make it complex and difficult to densify the monitoring of primary variables for analysis. As
