Active folding of fluvial terraces across the Siwaliks Hills, Himalayas of central Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We analyze geomorphic evidence of recent crustal deformation in the sub-Himalaya of central Nepal, south of the Kathmandu Basin. The Main Frontal Thrust fault (MFT), which marks the southern edge of the sub-Himalayan fold belt, is the only active ...

3D‐Printed Architected Anisotropic Channels for Ultrafast Solar‐Driven Interfacial Evaporation via Localized Thermal Management and Water Layer Structuring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed anisotropic channel evaporator integrates directional geometry with aligned titanium oxide, boron nitride, and chitosan networks to coordinate photon absorption, heat localization, and water transport. Phonon‐guided thermal pathways and interfacial water structuring enable ultrahigh evaporation rates and long‐term salt‐resistant solar ...

Tailored Design of Iridium Single Atoms on Mn–Ni‐Phytate with Robust Bifunctionality for Enhanced Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a manganese‐doped nickel hydroxide scaffold that anchors iridium as isolated single atoms (SAs) using a phytate ligand. The hierarchical nanoarray catalyst efficiently drives simultaneous hydrogen and oxygen evolution in alkaline media, enabling industrial‐level current densities and long‐term stability in an anion‐exchange‐membrane ...

The zoning of the relative morphotectonic activity of the Kan-Soleghan basin with an emphasis on the location of the Tehran-North Freeway tunnel [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات کاربردی علوم جغرافیایی, 2023
The Kan-Soleghan basin is located on the southern Hillside of the Alborz, which has affected the Alp-Himalayan active zone over time. In this respect, the evaluation of active tectonic processes and their effects on many human activities, such as the ...

Tectonic and Climatic Control on Quaternary Exhumation in the Eastern Pamir Domes, Western China: Insights From Geomorphic Approaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The Kongur Shan and Muztaghata massifs, bounded by the Kongur Shan extensional system (KES), represent tectonic and topographic anomalies in the eastern Pamir region.

Constraints on fault and lithosphere rheology from the coseismic slip and postseismic afterslip of the 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The 2006 M_w 7.0 Mozambique (Machaze) normal-faulting earthquake ruptured an unusually steeply dipping fault plane (~75°). The amount of slip in the earthquake decreased from depths of ~10 km toward the surface, and this shallow slip deficit was at least

Tectonogeomorphic investigation of Kashmir Basin NW Himalaya

open access: yesGeology, Ecology, and Landscapes, 2022
The present study has been carried out in Kashmir Basin (KB), NW Himalaya, to determine the relative tectonic activity using morphotectonic analysis, drainage patterns, lineament analysis and geomorphological field observations.

On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.

Phylogenomics, ecomorphological evolution, and historical biogeography in Deuterocohnia (Bromeliaceae: Pitcairnioideae)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Species of Deuterocohnia (17 spp.) show extraordinary variation in elevation (0–3900 m a.s.l.) and growth forms, and many have narrow geographic distributions in the west‐central Andes and the Peru‐Chile coast. Previous research using few plastid and nuclear loci failed to produce well‐resolved or supported phylogenies.

Reconstructing anthropic coastal landscape of Campi Flegrei volcanic area (Southern Italy) during the Roman period from multi-technique surveys

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2023
Campi Flegrei is one of the widest and most dangerous active volcanic complexes in the Mediterranean basin, known to be affected by continuous and sudden vertical ground movements (bradyseismic crisis) that have characterized the post-calderic volcanic ...
