Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, Volume 5, Issue 3, Page 669-684, September 2026.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating

Anomalous position of Paleozoic faults of Western Donbas

open access: yesВісник Харківського національного університету імені В.Н. Каразіна. Серія Геологія. Географія. Екологія, 2023
Statement of the general problem. The oil and gas-bearing province of Eastern Ukraine is located in the Dnipro-Donetsk Basin (DDB). It covers the Paleozoic structural floor and is buried under younger sediments.

Characterizing Incoming Cocos Plate Structure Outboard of the Guerrero Gap and Adjacent Segments Offshore Mexico: Implications for Along‐Strike Variations in Megathrust Slip Behavior

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Megathrust slip behavior in subduction zones can vary along‐strike, yet the mechanisms driving this variability remain uncertain. The Middle America trench offshore Mexico provides an ideal setting to investigate the structural controls on megathrust slip behavior.

Variabilidad espacial de los cambios de cauce en una rambla mediterránea en las seis últimas décadas (1946-2006)

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2014
En el presente trabajo se realiza un análisis de los cambios morfológicos ocurridos en la cuenca y el cauce de la Rambla de Cervera, situada en la parte oriental del Sistema Ibérico. El tramo de estudio (16.5 km) discurre primero confinado en un horst (5.

The Parguera Fault System: Possible Quaternary Reactivation of Bedrock Faults in Southwest Puerto Rico

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We present evidence of a previously unrecognized east‐west‐trending normal fault, named the Parguera Fault, in southwest Puerto Rico. The fault is located at the northwestern edge of seismicity from the southwest Puerto Rico seismic sequence that began in 2019, near the coastal town of La Parguera.

Late Permian to Holocene Paleofacies Evolution of the Arabian Plate and its Hydrocarbon Occurrences

open access: yesGeoArabia, 2001
A series of 19 paleofacies maps have been generated for given time intervals between the Late Permian and Holocene to reconstruct the depositional history of the Arabian Plate.

Horst and graben

open access: yes, 2014
Ensino Médio::GeografiaA animação mostra a formação do horst e do graben, feições geomorfológicas causadas pela movimentação da crosta terrestre. O horst é gerado quando duas regiões sofrem compressão e uma parcela da crosta terrestre é soerguida ...

Evaluating Forced Versus Plume‐Induced Subduction Initiation for the Talkeetna‐Bonanza Arc System: Implications for Permo‐Triassic Paleogeography of the North American Cordillera

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The mechanisms by which new subduction zones form remain highly debated. Here we use Permo‐Triassic strata to evaluate potential mechanisms for initiation of the Talkeetna‐Bonanza Arc of the northern North American Cordillera. New mapping and analysis of Permian and Upper Triassic strata on the Alaska Peninsula suggest a period of uplift ...

Initiation, Growth, and Contractional Deformation of Minibasins in a Salt‐Bearing Inverted Atlantic‐Type Rifted Margin: The Cotiella Massif (Southern Pyrenees)

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The study of offshore salt‐bearing rifted margins is commonly limited by seismic data resolution. Through the incorporation of salt‐bearing rifted margins in orogenic belts, some field analogs are still present at the surface. The Cotiella Massif, in the Southern Pyrenees, is an exceptional outcrop of the former Bay of Biscay–Pyrenean Atlantic

Contribution of aerogravity data interpretation to the study of the deep structure of Agadem petroleum block (Niger)

open access: yesGeodesy and Cartography, 2023
The main information provided by gravity maps is the geographical distribution of density heterogeneities in the subsurface. It is an important tool widely used for the mapping of geological structures, especially in the oil industry.
