Rethinking microtidal systems: Tidal signatures in the fluvial deposits of the Po River, Italy
ABSTRACT In microtidally influenced rivers, tides are generally assumed to leave virtually no signatures in the sedimentary record. However, this hypothesis has been surprisingly poorly tested using modern river analogues, which provide an opportunity to assess whether sedimentary signatures of microtidal regimes can develop in rivers that lack ...

Distinguishing between the concepts of steady state and dynamic equilibrium in geomorphology [PDF]
The development of the concept of equilibrium in geomorphology over the past 15 years has been marked by linguistic difficulties due, in part, to the interchangeable use of the terms, dynamic equilibrium and steady state.

Breaking up the hanging wall of a rift-border fault: The 2009 Karonga earthquakes, Malawi [PDF]
The southern East African Rift has an unusually large seismogenic thickness (35–40 km), which is responsible for wide tilted basins and extremely long faults with the potential for M7-8 normal-faulting earthquakes.

Performance-Based approach in seismic design of embedded retaining walls [PDF]
The increasing use of the underground spaces and the last seismic events in the urban areas have driven many researchers of different countries to deepen the knowledge on the dynamic behaviour of the structure embedded in the subsoil.

S-wave seismic data are unaffected by natural gas trapped in strata, making them a valuable tool to study evaporite facies comparing to P-wave data. S-wave seismic data were utilized to construct an isochronous framework and analyze evaporite facies by ...

Seismic Geomorphology of Mixed-Influence Coastal-Deltaic Systems [PDF]
Recognition of mixed processes on coastal-deltaic systems end members (relative power of W- wave, T -tide and F-fluvial processes) is important for both exploration and reservoir characterization. Mixed-influence systems impart asymmetry and heterogeneity that impact prediction of subsurface lithology (facies), static modelling of various connectivity ...

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Advances in crosshole seismic reflection processing [PDF]
In recent years there have been significant advances in the acquisition and processing of crosshole seismic reflection data, and the method has been shown to be a high resolution imaging technique.

The depositional environment of the Machów Formation in the central part of the Carpathian Foredeep is still relatively poorly understood. Although lithological variability, facies diversity, and depositional history have been described in many ...
