Timing of initiation of reverse displacement on the Taranaki Fault, northern Taranaki Basin: Constraints from the on land record (Oligocene Te Kuiti Group) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Structures associated with the wedge of basement overthrust into Taranaki Basin along the Taranaki Fault, are regarded as hydrocarbon plays and have been tested by drilling through the tip of the overthrust.

Benefits of a 3D geological model for major tunnelling works : an example from Farringdon, east-central London, UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In the design of major construction works, the better the ground conditions are known, the more control there is on the assessment of risks for construction, contract and personnel, and ultimately on final costs. Understanding of the ground conditions is

Neogene plate tectonic reconstructions and geodynamics of North Island sedimentary basins: Implications for the petroleum systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Although the modern Australia-Pacific plate boundary through New Zealand is relatively straight, there have been significant changes in its geometry during the Neogene. Within the North Island sector there has been a fundamental transition from an Alpine

Establishment patterns of saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) at the microsite scale help explain saguaro regeneration and distributions in heterogenous, regional habitats

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Establishment of long‐lived perennial plants is a pivotal event that often leads to reproductive maturity. The population dynamics of the giant saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea) have been investigated over large spatial areas, but establishment patterns have not been studied at the microsite (1 m) scale.

Growth Normal Faulting at the Western Edge of the Metropolitan Taipei Basin since the Last Glacial Maximum, Northern Taiwan

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2010
Growth strata analysis is an useful tool in understanding kinematics and the evolution of active faults as well as the close relationship between sedimentation and tectonics.

Analysis of a travertine system controlled by the transpressional activity of the Alhama de Murcia fault: The Carraclaca site, eastern Betic Cordillera, Spain

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Continental carbonates, such as travertines and tufas, formed from CO2-rich groundwater degassing as it emerges at the Earth’s surface, are often associated with major crustal-scale faults.

Geology of the Golobar and Rumaceo faults, Basque-Cantabrian Pyrenees

open access: yesJournal of Maps
The lateral transition between different styles of deformation is crucial for understanding local-scale structures since it influences orogenic reconstructions at the crustal scale. This is especially important at the westernmost Basque-Cantabrian Pyrenees, where the transition from the thin-skinned Basque-Cantabrian Pyrenees to the thick-skinned ...

Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Surface deformation induced by the 2016 Meinong earthquake and its implications to active folds

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2023
We present 230 field observations on the location, trending, and displacement vectors of the coseismic surface cracks induced by the 2016 Meinong earthquake in the Guanmiao area, SW Taiwan. Coseismic surface cracks trends from the north to northeast. The

Exploring Submarine Earthquake Geology In The Marmara Sea: Slip Rate of The North Anatolian Fault and Geological Record of Earthquakes

open access: yes, 2002
The disastrous 1999 earthquakes in Turkey have spurred the international community to study the geometry and behavior of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) beneath the Marmara Sea.
