Transient Creep on the Yarlung Zangbo Suture in Southern Tibet Triggered by the 2015 Gorkha (Nepal) Earthquake

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Large earthquakes often elevate seismicity in surrounding regions, as seen on the Xainza‐Dinggyê rift in southern Tibet after the 2015 MW 7.8 Gorkha (Nepal) earthquake. In contrast, the EW‐trending Yarlung Zangbo suture (YZS), located directly north of this event, exhibits seismic quiescence.

PALEOCENE-MIDDLE MIOCENE FLEXURAL-MARGIN MIGRATION OF THE NONMARINE LLANOS FORELAND BASIN OF COLOMBIA Migración de la subsidencia flexural durante el Paleoceno-Mioceno medio en la cuenca de antepais de los Llanos Orientales de Colombia

open access: yesCT&F Ciencia, Tecnología & Futuro, 2007
A foreland basin is a dynamic system whose depositional systems migrate in response to changes in tectonic uplift patterns, sedimentary filling processes and isostatic rebound of the lithosphere. The Paleocene-middle Miocene foreland system of the Llanos

Substantial continental temperature rise over the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum in the Pyrenees

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The Eocene period experienced several hyperthermal events with the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum being the most significant. During this event, global mean surface temperatures were 5–6 °C higher and latitudinal temperature gradients were reduced ...

CORAL CARBONATE PRODUCTION DURING THE PALEOCENE: INSIGHTS FROM THE MAIELLA MASSIF (PENNAPIEDIMONTE, CENTRAL ITALY)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia
The succession of the Maiella massif is analyzed, focusing on the colonial-coral bearing deposits occurring just below and immediately above the Cretaceous/Paleogene boundary.

Brawn before bite in endemic Asian eutherian mammals after the end-Cretaceous extinction

open access: yeseLife
The first 10 million years (Myr) following the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) mass extinction marked a period of global greenhouse conditions and dramatic rise of placental mammals.

Reconstruction of a latest Paleocene shallow-marine eutrophic paleoenvironment at Sidi Nasseur (Central Tunisia) based on foraminifera, ostracoda, calcareous nannofossils and stable isotopes (d13C, d18O)

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2009
In order to unravel faunal and paleoenvironmental parameters in shallow marine settings prior to the Paleocene- Eocene thermal maximum, we investigated the Sidi Nasseur section (NAS) in Central Tunisia.

WIDER PALEOGEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF BOTHREMYDID TURTLES IN NORTHERN SOUTH AMERICA DURING THE PALEOCENE–EOCENE

open access: yesPublicación Electrónica de la Asociación Paleontológica Argentina
Bothremydidae was one of the most diverse and widespread group of side-necked turtles (pleurodirans) during the Cretaceous and part of the Paleogene. In South America, the Paleogene record of bothremydids is restricted to Puentemys mushaisaensis from ...

Recalibration of the Tethyan shallow-benthic zonation across the Paleocene-Eocene boundary: the Egyptian record

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2009
The Galala Mountains in Egypt provide an excellent platform-basin transect with deposits spanning the Paleocene/ Eocene (P/E) boundary. These interfingering deposits enable a recalibration between platform and open marine biostratigraphic schemes.
