Permian Large Igneous Provinces and Their Paleoenvironmental Effects
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Seismotectonics of Mongolia and Baikal Rift Zone Controlled by Lithospheric Structures
Active tectonics are developing in Mongolia and the Baikal rift zone, where large crustal earthquakes (Mw ≥ 6.0) occur frequently. To clarify the mechanism of these earthquakes, we determine a high‐resolution 3‐D P‐wave velocity model of the crust and ...

Evidence of Segmentation in the Iberia–Africa Plate Boundary: A Jurassic Heritage?
The present structure of the Iberia−Africa plate boundary between the Gorringe Bank and the Algerian Basin is characterized by a highly segmented geometry and diffused seismicity. Filtered Bouguer gravity data show conspicuous highs coinciding with

THE GLOBAL ENDODRAINAGE SYSTEM: SOME FLUID-PHYSICAL MECHANISMS OF GEODYNAMIC PROCESSES
The article presents the main results of more than forty-year studies of the hydrogeodeformation field. We have establish some new properties of lithospheric massifs, which are clearly detectable during the periods of fast geodynamic activation (FGeDA ...
