Introduction Three fundamental goals will be followed in the study of metamorphic terrains including: 1- study of fabric in metamorphic rocks in order to recognize the relationship between metamorphism and deformation, 2- the identification of ...

Repeated Pleistocene Permafrost Episodes in the Western Pannonian Basin
ABSTRACT Concerning the study of past periglacial processes, the Pannonian Basin is a key area as it contains the southernmost frost polygons found in Central Europe. The presence or absence of permafrost is still, however, a matter of debate, and data on the timing of frost action are also scarce.

Abstract This study quantifies and interprets the hydro‐morphometric characteristics of the Dayi River Basin to evaluate process‐based controls on runoff generation, erosion susceptibility, and groundwater recharge in an ungauged tropical crystalline river system in Ghana.

Variations in the P‐T‐t of Deformation in a Crustal‐Scale Shear Zone in Metagranite
Deformation in crustal‐scale shear zones occurs over a range of pressure‐temperature‐time (P‐T‐t) conditions, both because they may be vertically extensive structures that simultaneously affect material from the lower crust to the surface, and because ...

Experimental metamorphic petrology
Since Bowen and Tuttle's pioneering study of the system MgO‐SiO2‐H2O in 1949, advances in experimental metamorphic petrology have occurred steadily rather than in “leaps and bounds”. The number and quality of papers published during the past quadrennium, 1975–1978, attests to the health of the science.

ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Metamorphic Inheritance, Lower‐Crustal Earthquakes, and Continental Rifting
The Malawi Rift is localized within Precambrian amphibolite‐granulite facies metamorphic belts, bounded by up to 150 km long border faults, and generates earthquakes throughout ∼40 km thick crust.

ABSTRACT Riverine and valley systems across the globe have been central to the development of past urban centres. By AD 900, the Shashe and Limpopo Rivers seem to have facilitated the interaction and integration of early farming communities in southern Africa. This paper focuses on the application of geoarchaeological perspectives made available by the

In subduction zones, the locked seismogenic zone is bordered by an upper and a lower transition zone. In these transition zones, deformation is primarily accommodated by an interplay of diffuse viscous deformation within a weak matrix and brittle ...
