The Relevance of Grain Dissection for Grain Size Reduction in Polar Ice: Insights from Numerical Models and Ice Core Microstructure Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The flow of ice depends on the properties of the aggregate of individual ice crystals, such as grain size or lattice orientation distributions. Therefore, an understanding of the processes controlling ice micro-dynamics is needed to ultimately develop a ...

Cosmogenic nuclide-derived downcutting rates of canyons within large limestone plateaus of southern Massif Central (France) reveal a different regional speleogenesis of karst networks [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
We present 35 new burial ages (27 sites) based on 26Al / 10Be ratios of terrestrial cosmogenic radionuclides measured in clasts and sediments deep within 12 caves in the southern Massif Central, France.

Indosinian high-strain deformation for the Yunkaidashan tectonic belt, south China : Kinematics and 40Ar/39Ar geochronological constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Structural and 40Ar/39Ar data from the Yunkaidashan Belt document kinematic and tectonothermal characteristics of early Mesozoic Indosinian orogenesis in the southern part of the South China Block.

Geomorphic risk maps for river migration using probabilistic modeling – a framework [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Lateral migration of meandering rivers poses erosional risks to human settlements, roads, and infrastructure in alluvial floodplains. While there is a large body of scientific literature on the dominant mechanisms driving river migration, it is still not

Time-varying drainage basin development and erosion on volcanic edifices [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
The erosional state of a landscape is often assessed through a series of metrics that quantify the morphology of drainage basins and divides. Such metrics have been well explored in tectonically active environments to evaluate the role of different ...

Late Miocene to early Pliocene stratigraphic record in northern Taranaki Basin: Condensed sedimentation ahead of Northern Graben extension and progradation of the modern continental margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The middle Pliocene-Pleistocene progradation of the Giant Foresets Formation in Taranaki Basin built up the modern continental margin offshore from western North Island.

Structural setting of the Jordan Northern Highlands : an integrated study using surface and sub-surface geological data by utilizing GIS Technology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This study was designed, for the identification of the General structural style of this part of Jordan by: (1) Definition of dominant structural styles in the JNH: such as the main structural elements, basins, and highs; (2) Inference of the structural ...

About the “predecessors” of the 2023 February earthquakes, Turkey

open access: yesSeismica
In the frame of a comprehensive investigation of historical earthquakes of Anatolia, we propose a re-appraisal of four major earthquakes/sequences occurred after 1000 AD (1114/1115, 1269, 1513/1514 and 1544), which could be considered as predecessors of

Dynamic Evolution of Porosity in Lower-Crustal Faults During the Earthquake Cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Earthquake-induced fracturing of the dry and strong lower crust can transiently increase permeability for fluids to flow and trigger metamorphic and rheological transformations.
