Tectonic stress of the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai [PDF]
Data on the stress-strain state of the rocks in the area of the Chuya and Kuray depressions located in the southeastern part of the Gorny Altai were obtained using field tectonophysical methods.

Structural and kinematic relationships between Corsica and the Pyrenees-Provence domain at the time of the Pyrenean orogeny [PDF]
International audienceThe Pyrenees-Provence belt and the Alps were both active in the late Eocene. Alpine Corsica was once a part of the Alps, and the now obducted metamorphic oceanic domain is similar and easily correlated in both areas.

Anatomy of a Curved Orogen: The Broken River Orocline in the Northeastern Tasmanides (Australia)
Abstract Oroclines record crustal and lithospheric‐scale processes in active plate margins. In northeastern Australia, the Broken River Orocline is marked by the curvature of structural fabrics and tectonic elements. However, the geometry, structural evolution, and tectonic implications of this orocline are poorly understood.

The Mura-Zala basin was formed due to ENE-WSW trending crustal extension in the late early and middle Miocene (19 – 11 Ma). Marine sedimentation occurred in several more or less confined depressions (half grabens), then in a unified basin.

A neural network approach for classification of fault-slip data in geoscience
In geoscience, paleostress studies are a vital tool for understanding the tectonic evolution of the region. The collected hundreds or even thousands of heterogeneous fault-slip data need to be divided into homogeneous (i.e., belonging to similar tectonic

Stress-strain state of the Heraklei volcano-tectonic block of the Mountainous Crimea
This paper presents the paleostress results obtained for Heracleyskaya anticlinal (Western Crimea). On the basis of field tectonophysical study of brittle planes and 3D relief map deciphering the scheme of faults is made.

Structural Controls on Shallow Cenozoic Fluid Flow in the Otago Schist, New Zealand
The Otago Schist in the South Island of New Zealand represents an exhumed Mesozoic accretionary prism. Two coastal areas (Akatore Creek and Bruce Rocks) south of Dunedin preserve structural and geochemical evidence for the development of postmetamorphic ...

An evaluation of different measures of dynamically recrystallized grain size for paleopiezometry or paleowattometry studies [PDF]
Paleopiezometry and paleowattometry studies are essential to validate models of lithospheric deformation and therefore increasingly common in structural geology.

Evolución tectónica y morfoestructural reciente de la Península Byers (Antártida): evidencias sobre el desarrollo de las Islas Shetland del Sur y la Cuenca de Bransfield [PDF]
[EN] Byers Peninsula forms the western extremity of the Livingston Island (Antarctica) in the continental South Shetland Block. This tectonic block is bounded by the South Shetland Trench to the north, the Bransfield back-arc basin to the south, and ...

Abstract The Jinshan Gorge in the middle Yellow River, northern China, currently connecting the upstream Hetao Graben to the downstream Weihe Graben, is hypothesized to have recently developed, which implies changing incision rates along the gorge. However, different integration processes have been proposed, such as paleolake regression in the Weihe ...
