Bi-directional extensional control of the Berane Basin formation, northern Montenegro [PDF]
The Berane Basin is a Miocene, northeast‐southwest oriented intramountain basin of the Dinarides, overlying the pre‐neotectonic basement of the Drina–Ivanjica unit, the East Bosnian–Durmitor unit and the Western Vardar Zone.

Origin of superimposed and curved slickenlines in San Miguelito range, Central México [PDF]
Interactions between intersecting faults cause local perturbations of the stress field in the vicinity of their intersections. Fault intersections are places of stress accumulation, stress relief and refraction of the stress trajectories; the slip ...

Evidence for surface uplift of the Atlas Mountains and the surrounding peripheral plateaux: Combining apatite fission-track results and geomorphic indicators in the Western Moroccan Meseta (coastal Variscan Paleozoic basement) [PDF]
This work represents an initial attempt to link the evolution of the topography in relation to the general tectonic framework of western Morocco. For this purpose, in a section of the Western Moroccan Meseta different tools are combined in order to ...

The relationship between the plutonic intrusions and the dyke swarm in the Los Pedroches batholith (Iberian Massif, Spain): Dykes as a paleotectonic and paleostress indicators [PDF]
[Abstract] The Los Pedroches batholith (Iberian Massif, SW Spain) is composed by a large biotite ±amphibole granodiorite pluton and several, smaller variable porphyritic, biotite ± cordierite granite intrusions.

Active strike-slip faulting in the Chablais area (NW Alps) from earthquake focal mechanisms and relative locations [PDF]
.: The Chablais area is characterized by a complex geological setting, resulting from the transport of nappes of various internal origins (the Prealpine nappes), thrusted in Oligocene times onto the Helvetic cover of the external zones of the Alps. While

Mesoproterozoic Strike-Slip Faulting within the Åland Rapakivi Batholith, Southwestern Finland
Paleostress inversion analysis of outcrop data from brittle fault structures within the Mesoproterozoic 1.58 Ga Åland rapakivi granite, southwestern Finland, revealed two separate strike-slip faulting stages. Stage 1 is dominated by dextral slip along E–
