Morphotectonics and paleostress analyses of Kutch area, Gujarat, India

Results in Earth Sciences, 2023
The Kutch Rift Basin (KRB) is of great attention for its possible hydrocarbon reserve. In this context, geomorphologic and structural geologic studies of the onland basin area are crucial.

Edwin Hills: morphotectonics and other geomorphological contributions

, 2000
Though perhaps best known amongst geomorphologists for his work on shore platforms and lunettes, Edwin Hills also recognized stratigraphic evidence which demonstrates the great antiquity of substantial parts of the contemporary landscape. But Hills' most

MORPHOSTRUCTURE OF THE KODAR-UDOKAN SECTION OF THE BAIKAL RIFT ZONE

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2014
The morphostructure of the region is a natural result of active geodynamics in the eastern Stanovoe Upland. Extreme seismic conditions become apparent in rare devastating earthquakes (up to 10-11 in the Mercally scale), as well as in frequent slight ones.

Controls on Valley‐Floor Width in the Western Andes

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract River‐valley floors are low relief, confined parts of the landscape that store sediment en route from mountains to lowlands. Transient sediment storage influences sediment budgets, biogeochemical cycles, and the preservation of environmental signals. The controls on valley‐floor width remain poorly understood, limiting the ability to reproduce

Morphotectonic Analysis between Crete and Kasos

Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Geographical Information Systems Theory, Applications and Management, 2017
The morphotectonic structure of the offshore area lying between Crete and Kasos is studied on the basis of new detailed bathymetric data. The resulting bathymetric map is presented. Qualitative analysis of morphological slope values, as well as the analysis of the watershed at the eastern part of Crete, confirms that the current seabed topographic ...

Seismic Attenuation Reveals Fault and Forearc Structure Across the Subduction‐Collision Transition in Southern Taiwan

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The Southern Array for the Lithosphere and Uplift of Taiwan Experiment (SALUTE) provides a new window into the subduction‐collision transition zone in southern Taiwan, where the Eurasian Plate‐Luzon Arc convergence drives intense orogeny and crustal deformation. Using dense P‐ and S‐wave spectral amplitude data recorded by SALUTE and a quality

Geomorphological analysis of drainage changes in the NE Apennines piedmont area: the case of the middle Tavo River bend (Abruzzo, Central Italy)

Journal of Maps, 2020
This work presents a tectonic geomorphology analysis of a river bend in the middle Tavo River valley, in the piedmont area of the NE Apennines (Abruzzo Region), between the eastern slope of the chain (Gran Sasso Massif) and the Adriatic coast.

From Extension to Strike‐Slip Faulting Along the Western Continuation of the North Anatolian Fault in the Northern Aegean Sea: Structural, Geochronological and Geochemical Constraints

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract The Northern Aegean region preserves a complex deformation pattern shaped by Miocene extension driven by retreat of the Hellenic subduction system, later overprinted by Plio–Pleistocene transtension linked to the westward propagation of the North Anatolian Fault (NAF). Although numerous structural, geophysical and geochronological studies have

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 644-663, April 2026.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...
