Tectonic Geomorphology of Iran’s Salt Structures

open access: yesOpen Journal of Geology, 2015
Iran has a various salt structures that their tectonic geomorphology is subject of this paper. Geologic situation of salt structures in Iran have determinate. According to age and geological setting of salt deposits that revealed by tectonic geomorphology methods, salt structure provinces of the Central and Southern Iran have been distinguished.

Salt Tectonics in the Southern Iran

open access: yesInternational Journal of Geosciences, 2016
Based on geographic distribution and geological setting of salt plugs in southern Iran, three salt diapiric provinces have been distinguished. These provinces include the Hormuz, Shiraz-Kazerun and Nyriz-Jahrum sub-basins. There are more than hundred salt plugs which they have been formed and developed in the southern margin of Iran.

An archean suture zone in the Tobacco Root Mountains? (1984) Evolution of Archean Continental Crust, SW Montana (1985) [PDF]

open access: yes
The Lake Plateau area of the Beartooth Mountains, Montana were mapped and geochemically sampled. The allochthonous nature of the Stillwater Complex was interpreted as a Cordilleran-style continental margin.

Diapiric growth within an Early Jurassic rift basin: The Tazoult salt wall (central High Atlas, Morocco) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The central High Atlas (Morocco) constitutes a diapiric province that hosts a complex array of elongated diapirs and minibasins that formed during the Lower Jurassic rift of the Atlas Basin.

Sustained eruptions on Enceladus explained by turbulent dissipation in tiger stripes

open access: yes, 2016
Spacecraft observations suggest that the plumes of Saturn's moon Enceladus draw water from a subsurface ocean, but the sustainability of conduits linking ocean and surface is not understood.

Weld kinematics of syn-rift salt during basement-involved extension and subsequent inversion: Results from analog models

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2018
Scaled analog models based on extensional basins with synrift salt show how basement topography exerts a control factor on weld kinematics during the extension and inversion phases.

Kinematics of regional salt flow in the northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceThe kinematics of regional-scale salt flow in the northern Gulf of Mexico is analysed using: (i) a map of shelf-break contours at the termination of successive depositional episodes; (ii) the location and geometry of large-scale ...

A review of cold seeps in the Western Atlantic, focusing on Colombia and the Caribbean

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Areas of the seafloor enriched with seeping fluids host unique chemosynthetic communities, and their interactions not only linked to the presence of oil and gas resources, but directly impact global geochemical cycles.
