Water pumping in mantle shear zones [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 AbstractWater plays an important role in geological processes. Providing constraints on what may influence the distribution of aqueous fluids is thus crucial to understanding how water impacts Earth’s geodynamics. Here we demonstrate that ductile flow exerts a dynamic control on water-rich fluid circulation in mantle shear zones.

Spatial heterogeneities in tectonic stress in Kyushu, Japan and their relation to a major shear zone
Earth, Planets and Space, 2015 We investigated the spatial variation in the stress fields of Kyushu Island, southwestern Japan. Kyushu Island is characterized by active volcanoes (Aso, Unzen, Kirishima, and Sakurajima) and a shear zone (western extension of the median tectonic line ...

Evidence from Rb–Sr mineral ages for multiple orogenic events in the Caledonides of Shetland, Scotland [PDF]
, 2015 Shetland occupies a unique central location within the North Atlantic Caledonides. Thirty-three new high-precision Rb–Sr mineral ages indicate a polyorogenic history.

Analysis of Location of Villages in Relation to Rupture Zone (Case Study: North Qazvin Fault) [PDF]
مسکن و محیط روستا, 2021 This paper studies the shear zone of North Qazvin fault and investigates the location of rural settlements in this area. In selected sections, the presence of transverse valleys along the fault made it possible to investigate the evidence of shear zones ...

The Role of the Magnetorotational Instability in the Sun [PDF]
, 2014 We calculate growth rates for nonaxisymmetric instabilities including the magnetorotational instability (MRI) throughout the Sun. We first derive a dispersion relation for nonaxisymmetric instability including the effects of shear, convective buoyancy ...

Kinematic and vorticity analyses of the western Idaho shear zone, USA
, 2017 The western Idaho shear zone (WISZ) is a Late Cretaceous, mid-crustal exposure of intense shear localized in the Cordillera of western North America. This shear zone is characterized by transpressional fabrics, i.e., downdip stretching lineations and ...

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.The review provides a critical up‐to‐date overview of the current landscape of human in vitro models for fatty liver disease, including spheroids, organoids, organ‐on‐a‐chip systems, bioprinted liver constructs and precision‐cut liver slices. Their utility for faithfully modeling different stages of MASLD and MASH are evaluated and their compatibility ...
