Two-sided asymmetric subduction; implications for tectonomagmatic and metallogenic evolution of the Lut Block, Eastern Iran [PDF]
West directed subduction zones show common characteristics, such as low structural elevation, deep trench, steep slab and a conjugate back-arc basin that are opposite to those of the east directed subduction zones.

Orbital frequencies in the carbonate sedimentary record: distorted by diagenesis? [PDF]
The most important archive of Earth’s climate change through geologic history is the sedimentary rock record. Rhythmic sedimentary alternations are usually interpreted as a consequence of periodic variations in the orbital parameters of the Earth.

Vertical movements along the northwestern side of Messina straits, in the 1967-1970 period
The results of a comparison of the spirit levelling data made by I.G.M. in 1967<br />and in 1970, are presented. An analysis of these data shows that the altitude<br />variations of bench marks in the considered triennial period seem to ...

Permeability evolution during progressive development of deformation bands in porous sandstones [PDF]
[1] Triaxial deformation experiments were carried out on large (0.1 m) diameter cores of a porous sandstone in order to investigate the evolution of bulk sample permeability as a function of axial strain and effective confining pressure.

The Geologic Features of the Occurrence of Copper in North America [PDF]
Copper is of such widespread natural occurrence in North America and there are so few metal-mining districts that have not contributed to its production that it is obviously necessary in any brief general treatment of the geology of the copper deposits ...
