Submarine Salt Karst Terrains [PDF]

, 2016
Karst terrains that develop in bodies of rock salt (taken as mainly of halite, NaCl) are special not only for developing in one of the most soluble of all rocks, but also for developing in one of the weakest rocks.

Aseismic Slip on the Ilyak Strike‐Slip Fault (Tajikistan) and Active Fault and Landslide Hazards in and Around the Tajik Basin Revealed by InSAR

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...

Natural to anthropogenic forcing in the Holocene evolution of three coastal lagoons (Caldas da Rainha valley, western Portugal) [PDF]

, 2006
In the coast of Central Portugal three lagoons were created by the Holocene flooding of diapiric-related depressions but experienced afterwards a significant sediment accumulation.

Three‐dimensional gravity current interactions with oblique slopes: Deflection, reflection and combined‐flow behaviours

Sedimentology, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2121-2159, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Gravity currents interacting with planar slopes have been thought to always ‘reflect’ a component of flow orthogonal to the slope irrespective of the flow incidence angle. Incoming flows are argued to undergo gravitational collapse, and generate internal waves, that propagate perpendicular to the bounding slope.

The impact of diapirism on geothermal reservoir properties of the Estopanyà and Boix synclines (South-Central Pyrenees)

Geothermal Energy
This study investigates petrological and thermophysical properties of rocks from the Estopanyà and Boix synclines (salt basins) to evaluate their potential as analogues for geothermal reservoir.

Salt and the Development of Human Settlements with Balnear and Climateric Potential within the Romanian Intra-Carpathian Space

Present Environment and Sustainable Development, 2019
Deposit salt in Romania has extremely important reserves, considered even inexhaustible at the current exploitation level. The biggest salt resources are found in the intra-Carpathian arch, represented by Transylvania and Maramures.

The thermal history of the Mesozoic Algarve Basin (South Portugal) and its implications for hydrocarbon exploration [PDF]

, 2014
The Algarve Basin is the southernmost geological province of mainland Portugal, outcropping along the entire south coast area and extending offshore, where it is recognised on seismic lines and in hydrocarbon exploration wells.

Interplay Between Salt Tectonics and a Large Igneous Province in the Espírito Santo Basin (Brazil)

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Salt tectonics provinces host numerous resources and are now targeted as potential areas of development for energy storage capacities such as underground storage in salt caverns. Sedimentary basins containing salt structures are common at passive margins where volcanic rocks, emplaced either during the lithospheric breakup or the post‐rift ...

ADRIA LITHOSPHERE INVESTIGATION ALPHA - Cruise No. M86/3, January 20 - February 04, 2012, Brindisi (Italy) - Dubrovnik (Croatia) [PDF]

, 2013
The Adriatic Sea and underlying lithosphere remains the least investigated part of the Mediterranean Sea. To shed light on the plate tectonic setting in this central part of southern Europe, R/V METEOR cruise M86/3 set out to acquire deep penetrating ...
