Lithospheric folding in Iberia [PDF]
Tectonics, 2002 Integration of stress indicator data, gravity data, crustal kinematics data, and analysis of topography and recent vertical motions demonstrates the occurrence of consistently oriented spatial patterns of large‐scale Alpine to recent intraplate deformation in Iberia. The inferred upper crustal and lithospheric deformation patterns and the timing of the

Smart Speed Imaging in Digital Image Correlation: Application to Seismotectonic Scale Modeling
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019 Analog models of earthquakes and seismic cycles are characterized by strong variations in strain rate: from slow interseismic loading to fast coseismic release of elastic energy.

Insolation driven variations of Mercury’s lithospheric strength [PDF]
, 2010 Mercury's coupled 3:2 spin-orbit resonance in conjunction with its relatively high eccentricity of ~0.2 and near-zero obliquity results in both a latitudinal and longitudinal variation in annual average solar insolation and thus equatorial hot and cold ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 29, Issue 3, Page 702-718, February 2023., 2023 We used the moisture recycling framework to quantify the precipitation regulation services of ecosystems of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) for their contribution to precipitation. TP ecosystems contributed substantially to local and downwind precipitation, with a contribution declining from TP and neighboring areas to eastern China and other surrounding ...

Evidence of Segmentation in the Iberia–Africa Plate Boundary: A Jurassic Heritage?
Geosciences, 2019 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

BSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021 The present-day tectonic setting of the Western Mediterranean region, from the Pyrénées to the Betics and from the Alps to the Atlas, results from a complex 3-D geodynamic evolution involving the interactions between the Africa, Eurasia and Iberia plates

Coupling Between Lithosphere Removal and Mantle Flow in the Central Andes
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 The central Andes is part of a Cordilleran orogen formed through continent‐ocean convergence. In contrast to the thickened crust, the mantle lithosphere below much of the orogen is anomalously thin.

GEODYNAMICS OF URANIUM ORE FIELDS IN THE WESTERN PART OF THE INHUL MEGABLOK OF THE UKRAINIAN SHIELD
Геохімія техногенезу, 2021 The Ingul megablock of the Ukrainian Shield contains a number of endogenous deposits of the sodium-uranium formation, which have been developed for more than 55-60 years.

Tidal controls on the lithospheric thickness and topography of Io from magmatic segregation and volcanism modelling [PDF]
, 2020 Tidal heating is expected to impart significant, non-spherically-symmetric structure to Jupiter's volcanic moon Io. A signature of spatially variable tidal heating is generally sought in observations of surface heat fluxes or volcanic activity, an exploration complicated by the transient nature of volcanic events.
