Neogene stratigraphic architecture and tectonic evolution of Wanganui, King Country, and eastern Taranaki Basins, New Zealand [PDF]
Analysis of the stratigraphic architecture of the fills of Wanganui, King Country, and eastern Taranaki Basins reveals the occurrence of five 2nd order Late Paleocene and Neogene sequences of tectonic origin.

Structural and Tectonic Evolution of the Porgera Gold Mine; Highlands of Papua New Guinea
The Porgera Transfer Zone (PTZ) is a major crustal and probably lithospheric structure across Papua New Guinea recording >50 km offset of ophiolites and very different patterns of geology and topography on either side.

Assessment of strong earthquake risk in the Chinese mainland from 2021 to 2030
The long-term earthquake prediction from 2021 to 2030 is carried out by researching the active tectonic block boundary zones in the Chinese mainland. Based on the strong earthquake recurrence model, the cumulative probability of each target fault in the ...

Geology of the eastern tip of the El Tordell Fault, Southern Pyrenees [PDF]
Along strike variations of frontal structures at fold and thrust belts allow us deciphering the evolution of contractional structures at early stages of deformation but also, how processes such as salt mobilisation, thrust emplacement, and folding develop.

Quaternary rupture of a crustal fault beneath Victoria, British Columbia, Canada [PDF]
The seismic potential of crustal faults within the forearc of the northern Cascadia subduction zone in British Columbia has remained elusive, despite the recognition of recent seismic activity on nearby fault systems within the Juan de Fuca Strait.

Based on fractures stress sensitivity, this paper experimentally studies fracture-supported shielding temporary plugging drill-in fluid (FSDIF) in order to protect fractured and fracture-pore type formation. Experimental results show the FSDIF was better

Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal [PDF]
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub-Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which marks the southern edge of the sub-Himalayan fold belt, is the only active ...

The geophysics, geology and mechanics of slow fault slip [PDF]
Abstract Modern geodetic and seismologic observations describe the behavior of fault slip over a vast range of spatial and temporal scales. Slip at sub-seismogenic speeds is evident from top to bottom of lithospheric faults and plays an important role throughout the earthquake cycle.
