Range‐Parallel Extension of the Andes in the 2020 Mw 5.7 Humahuaca Earthquake
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.Abstract Normal‐faulting earthquakes in mountain ranges provide important constraints on the dynamics of mountain building. To date, well‐documented examples of range‐parallel extension come primarily from the Tibetan Plateau, limiting our ability to test different models for its cause.

New geomorphic criteria on lateral propagation of blind thrust-related fold growth accommodating oblique convergence [PDF]
, 2007 International audienceThe aim of this contribution is to show the styles of growing anticlines and the ways in which they accommodate oblique convergence through proximal foreland basins and intramontane basins.

Is the Suez Rift in Its Post‐Rift Phase?
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 21, 16 November 2025.Abstract Failed rifts are widely assumed to enter post‐rift tectonic quiescence after termination of intracontinental rifting, but a comprehensive understanding of their regional morphotectonics is lacking. Our quantitative, rift‐scale geomorphic analyses in the Suez Rift, an archetypal failed rift in Egypt, reveals widespread rifting after presumed ...

Geosciences, 2018 Morphometric analyses of both the topography and drainage network have been carried out in a large sector of the Ionian coastal belt of southern Italy in order to unravel the possible control of Late Quaternary thrust front activity on the evolution of ...

Scale-dependence of lithological control on topography: Bedrock channel geometry and catchment morphometry in western Scotland [PDF]
, 2010 We propose that a scale-dependent topographic signature of erodibility arises due to fluvial and glacial erosion acting on different parts of the landscape at different times.

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract In a subduction zone, variability in the buoyancy and structure of the downgoing plate impacts deformation patterns in the overriding plate. Thick and buoyant lithosphere or smaller‐scale indentors entering the trench can lead to significant relief development and exhumation. To investigate such processes, we target the Cenozoic reorganization

Slow Geodynamics and Fast Morphotectonics in the Far East Tethys
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022 How can the sluggish, long‐wavelength mantle convection be expressed by so many time and space scales of morphotectonic activity? To investigate these relationships, we explore the Java‐Banda subduction zone, where geodynamic records cluster.
