Abstract We describe a high‐diversity silicified assemblage of marine molluscs (Pelsa‐Vazzoler Lagerstätte) from the upper Ladinian of the Agordo Dolomites (northeastern Italy). New data on the Triassic rebound, after the end‐Permian mass extinction, constrain it to an interval of relatively stable climatic conditions.

Tectonics of the Dalrymple Trough and uplift of the Murray Ridge (NW Indian Ocean) [PDF]
International audienceThe Dalrymple Trough is a 150-km-long, 30-km-wide basin located at the northern termination of the Owen Fracture Zone (OFZ), which is the present-day active India-Arabia plate boundary.

Sedimentology of Modern Bahamian Carbonate Slopes: Summary and Update
Abstract Slopes adjacent to the Bahamian carbonate platform revealed a large variety of depositional processes. In this study, we present a synthesis summarizing 109,000 km2 of bathymetric and reflectivity data with ∼7,900 km of seismic lines and 311 m of sediment cores that were obtained over the last 50 years.

Abstract Volcanic flank collapses, especially those in island settings, have generated some of the most voluminous mass transport deposits on Earth and can trigger devastating tsunamis. Reliable tsunami hazard assessments for flank collapse‐driven tsunamis require an understanding of the complex emplacement processes involved.

Discharge of hydrothermal fluids through sediment at the Escanaba Trough, Gorda Ridge (ODP Leg 169): assessing the effects on the rock magnetic signal [PDF]
An integrated rock-magnetic and multivariate statistical analysis of a suite of sediment samples recovered from ODP Sites 1037 and 1038 (Leg 169, Escanaba Trough, Gorda Ridge spreading center, NE Pacific Ocean) has been carried out to assess the use of

Abstract The seismic potential of the Lesser Antilles subduction zone is poorly known and highly debated. Only two damaging earthquakes have been reported in the historical period, in 1839 and 1843, but their sources and magnitude are still uncertain. Global Navigation Satellite Systems and coral data contradict each other, and no conclusion has been ...

Seismic stratigraphy and structural evolution of the South Korea Plateau, East Sea (Sea of Japan)
This study presents an intergrated tectonostratigraphic framework of the South Korea Plateau (SKP), East Sea using 2D seismic profiles and borehole data. Based on seismic stratigraphy analysis, we proposed a four‐stage structural and sedimentary evolution model of the SKP which provides a window into understanding potential targets for sandstone ...

Western Greece and Ionian Sea petroleum systems [PDF]
In western Greece, the Ionian and pre-Apulian zones represent, respectively, the basin and the transitional zone (slope) to the Apulian platform. The Apulian platform constitutes the weakly deformed foreland of the external Hellenides.
