The role of gravitational collapse in controlling the evolution of crestal fault systems (Espírito Santo Basin, SE Brazil) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A high-quality 3D seismic volume from offshore Espírito Santo Basin (SE Brazil) is used to assess the importance of gravitational collapse to the formation of crestal faults above salt structures.

Superposed deformation straddling the continental-oceanic transition in deep-water Angola [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The Angolan margin is the type area for raft tectonics. New seismic data reveal the contractional buffer for this thin-skinned extension. A 200-km-long composite section from the Lower Congo Basin and Kwanza Basin illustrates a complex history of ...

Pull-apart basin formation and development in narrow transform zones with application to the Dead Sea Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Contrary to other examples, like Death Valley, California, and the Sea of Marmara, Turkey, the Dead Sea-type pull-apart basins form within a narrow transform corridor between strike-slip faults that are less than 10 km apart, much smaller than the ...

Jurassic rifting to post-rift subsidence analysis in the Central High Atlas and its relation to salt diapirism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
et. al.The subsidence evolution of the Tethyan Moroccan Atlas Basin, presently inverted as the Central High Atlas, is characterized by an Early Jurassic rifting episode, synchronous with salt diapirism of the Triassic evaporite-bearing rocks.

A Hydrogeophysical Survey Utilising the sTEM and sTEMprofiler Systems: Transient Electromagnetic Data and Resistivity Models

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
We present a transient electromagnetic dataset from northwestern Denmark acquired with the novel sTEMprofiler system, mapping buried Quaternary valleys. The open dataset, including raw data and resistivity models, enables benchmarking of inversion methods and integration into geological and hydrological studies. ABSTRACT Transient electromagnetic (TEM)

Ferromanganese nodules and micro-hardgrounds associated with the Cadiz Contourite Channel (NE Atlantic): Palaeoenvironmental records of fluid venting and bottom currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Ferromanganese nodule fields and hardgrounds have recently been discovered in the Cadiz Contourite Channel in the Gulf of Cadiz (850–1000 m). This channel is part of a large contourite depositional system generated by the Mediterranean Outflow Water ...

3D Quantification of Subsidence During Pyrenean Retro‐Wedge Initiation: Role of Structural and Thermal Inheritance on Hyperextended Margin Inversion (Aquitaine Basin)

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 130-140, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We present novel 3D subsidence data enabling vertical movements' quantification during the early formation of the Pyrenean retro‐wedge. From Cenomanian to Turonian times, subsidence is relatively low (~26 ± 10 m/Myr), corresponding to a brief 10 Myr thermal re‐equilibration of the European lithosphere following the hyperextended rift episode ...

Geology of the Salinas De Rosío Diapir (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, Spain)

open access: yesJournal of Maps
This study presents a new geological map of the Salinas de Rosío diapir (Basque-Cantabrian Basin, northern Spain), based on detailed fieldwork, interpretation of high-resolution topographic data, and integration of existing geological information.

Neoarchean Arc Magmatism and Crust Recycling in the Northern Marginal Zone of the Limpopo Complex, Zimbabwe: New Insights From Zircon U‐Pb‐Hf Isotopes of a Charnockite Suite

open access: yesGeological Journal, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 566-592, March 2026.
Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...
