Performance evaluation of Wied Dalam (WDD) seismic station in Malta [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The continual operation of a permanent seismograph, now exceeding a couple of decades in some cases, naturally involves changes of hardware and software over time.

The evolution of the Congo- Kalahari Watershed: African mega-geomorphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Includes bibliographical references.Africa's bimodal elevation, low in the north and west, and high in the south and east, is globally unique. The Congo–Kalahari Watershed represents the transition between low and high Africa.

Internal Structure, Kinematics, and Prehistory of Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A), Brooks Range, Alaska

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Frozen Debris Lobe‐A (FDL‐A)—one of hundreds of FDLs in the Brooks Range of northern Alaska—is a slow‐moving landslide in permafrost that has been the subject of research since 2008 due to its close proximity to the Dalton Highway. Here, we synthesize more than a decade's worth of climate and surface measurements of monitored FDLs, and the ...

Seismic Stratigraphy and Geomorphology of Palaeocene Volcanic Rocks, Faroe-Shetland Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
2D and 3D seismic reflection data in the Faroe-Shetland Basin have been used to remotely study buried, large-scale Palaeocene volcanic structures emplaced during continental flood basalt volcanism in the Faroe-Shetland Basin.

Characterization and Numerical Modeling of Shallow Marine Turbidite Depositional Systems: A Case Study from the Second Member of the Yinggehai Formation, X Gas Field, Yinggehai Basin

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Objective: The research on turbid current deposition in shallow Marine shelf environments is relatively weak. Method: Based on three-dimensional seismic, drilling and logging data, etc., the spatio-temporal characterization of the shallow sea turbidity ...

Earthquake geology: science, society and critical facilities

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2014
Earthquake geology studies the effects, the mechanics and the impacts of earthquakes in the geological environment. Its role is also to decode the fault history, therefore its approach is fault specific and its outcomes are of decisive value for seismic ...

Depositional and Hydrological Relationships Between Buried Dead Ice and the Active Layer in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: A Study of Sediment Geochemistry and Cation Concentrations

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The McMurdo Dry Valleys, the largest ice‐free region in Antarctica, are home to a cold‐desert hydrologic system of glaciers, snowbanks, streams, and lakes. Freshwater is also stored as dead glacial ice, which is poorly constrained in terms of ion concentrations and interactions with both in situ and overlying sediments.

Fluvial and tectonic geomorphology of orogenic plateaux [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Geomorphology is an expression of processes acting upon an area. The links between driving processes and the resulting geomorphology are far from being fully understood.

High resolution seismology, archaeology and submerged landscapes - an interdisciplinary study

open access: yes, 2000
Archaeological investigation of the shallow coastal environment has traditionally been conducted through exclusively marine or terrestrial methods, creating artificial division between sites located in the intertidal and subtidal zones.

Discovery and Fine‐Scale Mapping of Hadal Xenophyophore Habitat in the Nova Canton Trough, Central Pacific Ocean

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Discovery and fine‐scale mapping of a hadal xenophyophore field: submersible video transects and photogrammetry enable semi‐automated delineation of xenophyophores, revealing their abundance, spatial organisation, structural complexity and contribution to habitat heterogeneity at ~8000 m depth.
