Integrated gravity and topography analysis in analog models: Intraplate deformation in Iberia [PDF]
, 2012 Trends in the topography of the Iberian Peninsula show a pronounced contrast. In the western part of the Iberian microplate the main topographic highs trend E-W to NE-SW and are periodically spaced with wavelengths of 250 km.

A new lithospheric model in the eastern part of the Western Carpatians: 2D integrated modelling
Contributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2015 Using 2D integrated geophysical modelling we recalculated lithospheric model along transect KP-X in the eastern part of theWestern Carpathians. Our model takes into account the joint interpretation of the heat flow, free air anomalies, topography and ...

The 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake, low fault friction, and the crustal support of plate driving forces in India [PDF]
, 2011 We present a source model for the 2001 M_w 7.6 Bhuj earthquake of northwest India. The slip distribution suggests a high stress drop (~35 MPa) and, together with the depth distribution of aftershocks, that the entire crust is seismogenic. We suggest that

Are there superposed Mohos in the south-western Alps? New seismic data from fan-profiling reflections [PDF]
, 2007 International audienceThe Moho preserves imprints of the regional geodynamic evolution of the lithosphere. As such, its detailed topography in divergence or convergence zones has a strong bearing on any geodynamic model. This is still more critical where

Qinghai-Tibet Plateau crustal thickness derived from EGM2008 and CRSUT2.0
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2014 Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the most complex region for crustal thickness inversion, while high-resolution earth gravity model (EGM) makes it possible to obtain high precision gravity anomaly, which is a key parameter to depict the Earth’s inner structure ...

The 2023 Mw 6.8 Morocco Earthquake: A Lower Crust Event Triggered by Mantle Upwelling?
Geophysical Research LettersA M6.8 earthquake struck the High Atlas Mountains in Morocco on 8 September 2023, ending a 63‐year seismic silence. We herein attempt to clarify the seismogenic fault and explore the underlying mechanism for this seismic event based on multiple data sets.

Low-temperature thermochronology and thermokinematic modeling of deformation, exhumation, and development of topography in the central Southern Alps, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2009 Apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He and fission track ages were obtained from ridge transects across the central Southern Alps, New Zealand. Interpretation of local profiles is difficult because relationships between ages and topography or local faults are ...
