Mid-mantle deformation inferred from seismic anisotropy [PDF]
With time, convective processes in the Earth's mantle will tend to align crystals, grains and inclusions. This mantle fabric is detectable seismologically, as it produces an anisotropy in material properties—in particular, a directional dependence in ...

Geodynamics of the early Earth: Quest for the missing paradigm
In contrast to modern-day plate tectonics, geodynamics of the early Earth presents a unique challenge, as currently there is no consensus on a global paradigm concerning the mantle dynamics and lithosphere tectonics in the Precambrian (Benn et al., 2006;

Tectonic significance of changes in post-subduction Pliocene-Quaternary magmatism in the south east part of the Carpathian-Pannonian Region [PDF]
The south-eastern part of the Carpathian–Pannonian region records the cessation of convergence between the European platform/Moesia and the Tisza–Dacia microplate.

ABSTRACT In China, as the mining depth of coal mines increases, the occurrence conditions of coal seams are becoming increasingly complex, leading to a continuous rise in the risk of rock‐burst. The frequent occurrence of such accidents has caused severe losses to the safe production of coal mines.

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

ABSTRACT Orogenic belts that sustain elevated temperatures at intermediate crustal depths for tens of millions of years are known as hot orogens. The evolution of these hot orogens is largely influenced by thermal maturation, primarily driven by the distribution of heat‐producing elements (HPEs), such as K, Th and U in the overthickened crust.
