Folded Basinal Compartments of the Southern Mongolian Borderland: A Structural Archive of the Final Consolidation of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt

Geosciences, 2017
The Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB) records multiple Phanerozoic tectonic events involving consolidation of disparate terranes and cratonic blocks and subsequent reactivation of Eurasia’s continental interior.

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

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
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

An ichthyosaur skull from the Late Jurassic of Svalbard

Bulletin de la Société Géologique de France, 2010
Abstract An ichthyosaur skull discovered in the Upper Jurassic of Svalbard is described for the first time. It is mainly characterised by a relatively long snout and numerous small teeth, which are characters also found in the Late Jurassic ichthyosaur genera Brachypterygius and Aegirosaurus.

Semi‐analytical solution for the stability of deep vertical shaft considering time‐dependent rock‐structure interaction

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A novel cavity contraction solution and multilayer shaft wall model were developed to analyze deep shaft stability, considering rock viscosity, support structures, and water pressure, with successful validation through a Hulusu Coal Mine case study.

Fracture evolution of a thick soft protection layer and the water inrush mechanism in overburden under longwall mining

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Through shear–tensile creep tests and viscoelastic modeling, the fracture evolution of thick soft protective layers is clarified. Results show thickness‐dependent rheological failure modes that govern four types of roof water inrush, providing a mechanism‐based framework for hazard prediction and control. Abstract In the Jurassic coal‐bearing strata of

Phylogenetic structure of conifers in regional floras in relation to climate and environmental heterogeneity worldwide

Ecography, EarlyView.
Despite having only about 670 species worldwide, conifers are one of the ecologically and economically most important plant groups. They have a rich fossil record and previous studies have shown that their current diversity is the result of past radiations, extinction, and dispersal events, restricting many genera to either the Northern or Southern ...

Mechanisms of Roadway Instability and Coupled Control Technology for Working Face Passing Through Fault Zones

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study mainly explores the instability characteristics of roadways near faults in the working face. Taking the 51104 transportation roadway of the 51104 working face in Shengxin Coal Mine as the main research object, through theoretical analysis, borehole inspection, numerical simulation and on‐site mine pressure observation, the instability ...

Late Triassic sauropodomorph and Middle Jurassic theropod tracks from the Xichang Basin, Sichuan Province, southwestern China: First report of the ichnogenus Carmelopodus

Journal of Palaeogeography, 2018
Upper Triassic and Middle Jurassic strata of the Xichang Basin in Sichuan Province, southwestern China, yielded important dinosaur ichnofossils. From the Xujiahe Formation of the Yiguojiao tracksite, we report a Late Triassic footprint assemblage in ...

Control Mechanism of Pore Structure of Different Macroscopic Lithotypes on Gas Desorption Differences: A Case Study of High‐Rank Coal From the Western Ordos Basin

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
论文陈述 Paper Statement 本研究揭示了不同宏观煤岩类型的差异化控气机制:半亮煤是主要“储气核心,” 光亮煤为关键“渗流通道,” 暗淡煤则是“初期高产贡献者”。这为深层煤层气甜点优选与定制开发提供了关键理论依据。 This study reveals the differentiated gas‐controlling mechanisms of different macroscopic coal lithotypes: semibright coal acts as the primary “gas storage core,” bright coal serves as the critical “seepage channel,” and dull coal functions

Apatite in Carbonatite Preserving Primary Magmatic, Post‐Magmatic Overgrowth, and Post India‐Asia Collision‐Related Hydrothermal Alteration: Evidenced From U–Pb Isotope and Trace Element Geochemistry

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
U–Pb isotope and trace element geochemistry of apatite from carbonatites of Peshawar Plain Alkaline Igneous Province, western Himalaya shows Permo‐Carboniferous magmatism, an additional magmatic pulse during Cretaceous, and post‐magmatic hydrothermal/metasomatism during Oligocene. ABSTRACT U–Pb isotope and trace element geochemistry of apatite combined
