Discriminating Tectonic Setting of Igneous Rocks Using Biotite Major Element chemistry−A Machine Learning Approach

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
The composition of igneous biotite is a potential indicator of the geologic environment of its host rock. Here, we apply two machine learning models−eXtreemly Greedy tree Boosting (XGBoost) and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) to classify ...

Brittle Deformation in the Neoproterozoic Basement of Southeast Brazil: Traces of Intraplate Cenozoic Tectonics

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The basement of southeast Brazil is traditionally interpreted as the result of Neoproterozoic and early Paleozoic orogenic cycles. Wide regions of the Atlantic Plateau (southeast Brazil) are characterized by rocks and tectonic structures of Precambrian ...

Rock Magnetic Signature of Heterogeneities Across an Intraplate Basal Contact: An Example From the Northern Apennines

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Heterogeneities in the magnetic signature along intraplate shear zones complicate their correlation with the physical processes that are involved in the geodynamic evolution of megathrusts.

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 ...

Global implication of mesoproterozoic (~ 1.4 Ga) magmatism within the Sette-Daban Range (Southeast Siberia)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Mesoproterozoic period included several global tectonic events like break-up of Nuna and formation of Rodinia. However, although Siberia is a significant piece of both supercontinents, Mesoproterozoic time is marked by quiescence of magmatic and tectonic

Deformation Styles and Multi-Stage Evolution History of a Large Intraplate Strike-Slip Fault System in a Paleozoic Superimposed Basin: A Case Study From the Tarim Basin, NW China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The complex deformation styles of large intraplate strike-slip fault systems in the multi-stage superimposed basin are hot topics worldwide. This article proposes structural models and evolution processes for such strike-slip fault systems in the Tarim ...

Inherited structure and coupled crust‐mantle lithosphere evolution: Numerical models of Central Australia

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
Continents have a rich tectonic history that have left lasting crustal impressions. In analyzing Central Australian intraplate orogenesis, complex continental features make it difficult to identify the controls of inherited structure.

Recent Kattegat earthquakes — evidence of active intraplate tectonics in southern Scandinavia [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 1991
Abstract On June 15, 1985, an earthquake with a local magnitude M L (UPP) value of 4.6 occurred in the Kattegat area close to the Swedish-Danish border. It was one of the largest earthquakes in Sweden and Denmark during this century. Two more events occurred in the same area: on April 1, 1986 ( M L (UPP) = 4.2), and May 24, 1990 ( M L (UPP) = 3.3)

Lowland river responses to intraplate tectonism and climate forcing quantified with luminescence and cosmogenic 10Be [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Intraplate tectonism has produced large-scale folding that steers regional drainage systems, such as the 1600 km-long Cooper Ck, en route to Australia’s continental depocentre at Lake Eyre.
