Deformation of continental crust along a transform boundary, Coast Mountains, British Columbia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
New structural, paleomagnetic, and apatite (U-Th)/He results from the continental margin inboard of the Queen Charlotte fault (~54°N) delineate patterns of brittle faulting linked to transform development since ~50 Ma.

“Empirical Prewhitening” Spectral Analysis Detects Periodic but Inconsistent Signals in Abyssal Hill Morphology at the Southern East Pacific Rise

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
The existence, or not, of periodicities in abyssal hill morphology has been vigorously debated in recent publications, and some have hypothesized that such periodicities are evidence of the impact of Milankovitch cycle‐caused sea level fluctuations on ...

RECENT GEODYNAMICS OF FAULT ZONES: FAULTING IN REAL TIME SCALE

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015
Recent deformation processes taking place in real time are analyzed on the basis of data on fault zones which were collected by long-term detailed geodetic survey studies with application of field methods and satellite monitoring.A new category of recent

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

Sea Beam Survey of an Active Strike-Slip Fault: The San Clemente Fault in the California Continental Borderland [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The San Clemente fault, located in the California Continental Borderland, is an active, northwest trending, right-lateral, wrench fault. Sea Beam data are used to map the major tectonic landforms associated with active submarine faulting in detail ...

The Internal Structural Evolution of Calderas: Results from 3D Discrete Element Simulations

open access: yesGeosciences, 2019
The structural evolution of calderas is a key issue in volcanology and has profound implications for hazard analysis and the exploitation of geothermal energy and hydrothermal ores.

Analysis of the Importance of Extension in Accounting for the Post-Carboniferous Subsidence of the North Sea Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
Post Carboniferous sedimentary deposition in the Central North Sea basins can be separated into three major periods: Permian, Triassic and mid-Jurassic through present.

Assessing the effect of volcano-tectonic activity on the spatial distribution of surface temperature in the Main Ethiopian Rift, using integrated approach of remote sensing data

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing, 2022
Heat energy continuously flows from the interior of the earth’s layers to the surface, usually associated with rifting and faulting the earth’s crust.
