An integrated magnetic susceptibility anisotropy (AMS) and structural geological study on Cenozoic clay rich sediments from the Transdanubian Range [PDF]

, 2014
Systematic structural and anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) measurements were carried out on Cenozoic clay rich deposits from the Transdanubian Range, central part of the Alcapa Unit. The aim was to improve the knowledge on the Neogene tectonic

Southwestern Tian Shan: 1. Deformation of Cenozoic Intra‐Montane Basins and Intervening Basement Ranges in Front of the Indian Mantle Indenter

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 4, April 2025.
Abstract A structural analysis of intra‐montane basins establishes the deformation field of the southwestern Tian Shan, that part of the Tian Shan that faces the Pamir and thus the deformation that the Indian mantle‐lithosphere indenter beneath the Pamir imposes—northward indentation and westward crustal collapse.

Constraining the Timing of the Closure of the Intra‐Pontide Ocean by U–Pb Dating of Syntectonic Calcite

Terra Nova, Volume 37, Issue 1, Page 26-34, February 2025.
ABSTRACT The western Black Sea region is a key area for the study of the Neo‐Tethys orogenic belt, as it contains records of the evolutionary history of the entire Alpine orogeny from subduction to oceanic closure and collision. The Izmir‐Ankara and the Intra‐Pontide suture zones represent the final closure of the Neo‐Tethys oceans.

Present‐Day Shortening Accommodated by Folding, Thrusting and Strike‐Slip Faulting in the Enriquillo Basin of Southern Central Hispaniola: Implications for the Regional Seismic Hazard

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Hispaniola accommodates a significant portion of the present‐day convergence between Caribbean and North American plates. Located in southern Hispaniola, the Neogene Enriquillo basin is bounded by the Neiba and Bahoruco mountain ranges. The role of active individual faults and fault systems in this basin is not well understood, particularly ...

Structural analysis and neotectonic evidences of the dip-slip transverse fault system in the central Mainland Kachchh region, Western India

Quaternary Science Advances
The spatio-temporal changes in the fluvial system and landform of the central Kachchh Mainland region are caused by distinctive ongoing tectonic deformations.

Reconciling post-orogenic faulting, paleostress evolution, and structural inheritance in the seismogenic northern Apennines (Italy): insights from the Monti Martani Fault System [PDF]

Solid Earth
Structural inheritance plays a significant role in the evolution of fault systems in different tectonic settings. Both positive reactivation of pre-orogenic extensional faults and negative reactivation of synorogenic reverse faults during orogenic cycles

Stress field rotation or block rotation: An example from the Lake Mead fault system [PDF]

The Coulomb criterion, as applied by Anderson (1951), has been widely used as the basis for inferring paleostresses from in situ fault slip data, assuming that faults are optimally oriented relative to the tectonic stress direction.

Large scale deformation in a locked collisional boundary: Interplay between subsidence and uplift, intraplate stress and inherited lithospheric structure in the late stage of the SE Carpathians evolution. [PDF]

, 2007
The interplay between slab dynamics and intraplate stresses in postcollisional times creates large near-surface deformation, particularly in highly bent orogens with significant lateral variations in mechanical properties.

Origin of the Sandstone Dikes Intruding Into the Miocene Shidara Group, Southwest Japan Based on Sandstone Composition and Detrital Zircon U–Pb Ages

Island Arc, Volume 34, Issue 1, January/December 2025.
ABSTRACT Geological conditions and fluid migration records that lead to the formation of sandstone injectites, including sandstone dikes, are attracting attention from various perspectives, including resource development. It is crucial to know the direction of intrusion from the parent sand body and the type of dike to understand the formation ...
