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

open access: yesTectonics, 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.

A fracture rarely comes alone: associations of fractures and stylolites in analogue outcrops improve borehole image interpretations of fractured carbonate geothermal reservoirs [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth
In this study, we present a method that uses associations of discontinuity sets to demonstrate similarities between the outcrop and the subsurface. A discontinuity association comprises up to four discontinuity sets (fractures and stylolites) that can ...

Structural and kinematic relationships between Corsica and the Pyrenees-Provence domain at the time of the Pyrenean orogeny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
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.

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

open access: yesTerra 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.

The Relationship between Current Ground Stress and Permeability of Coal in Superimposed Zones of Multistage Tectonic Movement

open access: yesGeofluids, 2019
According to the characteristics of the paleostress field and tectonic features at the key moments during tectonic movement after the formation of the no. 3 coal seam, the superimposed areas of different folding zones in the southern section of Shizhuang

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]

open access: yes, 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.

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

open access: yesTectonics, 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 ...

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

open access: yes
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.

Audio-Magnetotelluric Modeling of Cimandiri Fault Zone at Cibeber, Cianjur [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.4.1.39-47The characteristic of Cimandiri Fault Zone has not been completely defined despite plenty of studies had already been accomplished. Therefore, an audio-magnetotelluric modeling was carried out.

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

open access: yesIsland 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 ...
