Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Present-day stress orientations and tectonic provinces of the NW Borneo collisional margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Extent: 15p.Borehole failure observed on image and dipmeter logs from 55 petroleum wells across the NW Borneo collisional margin were used to determine maximum horizontal stress (σH) orientations; combined with seismic and outcrop data, they define seven

Influence of salt in the tectonic development of the frontal thrust belt of the eastern Cordillera (Guatiquía area, Colombian Andes) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Geological maps, seismic lines and data from a dry exploration well are used to develop a new structural model for a segment of the eastern foothills of the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia, emphasizing the role of salt tectonics.

Modeling of stringer deformation and displacement in Ara salt after the end of salt tectonics

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2018
The present work considers numerical models of large rock inclusions (stringers) are embedded in many salt bodies. The study has been made to investigate the influence of salt tectonic process, such as downbuilding, on the deformation and displacement of

Assessment of the tectonic role of the Triassic evaporites in the North Toulon fold-thrust belt

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021
The eastern Beausset Syncline and Toulon Belt, in the southern France, represents the easternmost remnant of the Pyrenean Apto-Albian Rift System and of the Pyrenean-Provençal orogen (Late Cretaceous-Eocene).

Subparallel thrust and normal faulting in Albania and the roles of gravitational potential energy and rheology contrasts in mountain belts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The active tectonics of Albania and surrounding regions, on the eastern margin of the Adriatic Sea, is characterized by subparallel thrust and normal faulting which, we suggest, is likely to be related to gravitational potential energy contrasts between ...

Basement-involved thrusting, salt migration and intramontane conglomerates: a case from the Southern Pyrenees

open access: yesBSGF - Earth Sciences Bulletin, 2021
The northern margin of the Organyà basin (Southern Pyrenees) has a complex structure in which syn-rift Lower Cretaceous carbonates flank a wide Keuper evaporite province, featuring the leading edges of the basement-involved thrust sheets of the Pyrenean ...

Salt tectonics [PDF]

open access: yes
Salt tectonics refers to structural deformation involving bodies composed of evaporite minerals. The Dutch subsurface is characterized by a thick sequence of Zechstein salt deposited during the Late Permian. Its deformation in response to several tectonic phases had a pronounced influence on Meso-Cenozoic tectonostratigraphic and depositional evolution.
