Crustal Architecture and Low‐Temperature Geochronology of an Apparent Cycladic Tectonic Window (NE Attica, Greece): Insights Into Imbrication in Subduction Settings

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Understanding the timing and configuration of tectonic nappes in collapsed orogens is integral to reconstructing its geodynamic evolution. Northeastern Attica lies between bivergent Miocene detachment systems and has historically been interpreted as a tectonic window exposing the lowest nappe of the Hellenides, the Basal Unit.

Constraining the Kinematics of the Victoria Microplate and the Northern Western Branch of the East African Rift System

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract The fragmentation of continents results in microplates that rotate to accommodate the lateral propagation of bounding rifts. Yet, the relationships between microplate rotation rates, fault slip, and kinematics at propagating rift tips remain unknown.

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

Probing Pedogenetic Imprints and Functional Properties of Moroccan Clayey Materials Through FFC NMR Relaxometry

Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry, Volume 63, Issue 10, Page 796-809, October 2025.
Fast Field Cycling NMR relaxometry reveals how pedogenetic pathways imprint distinct dynamic signatures in Moroccan clays, shaping their microstructural heterogeneity and technological properties. ABSTRACT Understanding how soil formation processes influence the microstructure and the dynamic behavior of clay‐rich materials is essential for both ...

“Lab‐Quakes”: Quantifying the Complete Energy Budget of High‐Pressure Laboratory Failure

AGU Advances, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2025.
Abstract Understanding the interplay of various energy sinks during seismic fault slip is essential for advancing earthquake physics and improving hazard assessment. However, quantifying the energy consumed by major dissipative processes remains a challenge.

Metamorphic core complexes vs. synkinematic plutons in continental extension setting: insights from key structures (Shandong Province, eastern China) [PDF]

, 2011
International audienceContinental extension is an important geodynamical process mostly diagnostic of a peculiar behaviour of the crust accommodated by geological structures that highlight these specific conditions in the crust. Though a Metamorphic Core

Limits of Self‐Propping in Enhanced Geothermal Systems: New Experimental Insights From Shear, Tensile and Saw‐Cut Fractures in Odenwald Granodiorite

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) use engineered fracture networks as fluid pathways and heat exchangers in hot, low‐permeability rock. Unlike gel‐proppant hydraulic fracturing treatments, many EGS use hydraulic shear stimulation to increase fracture permeability by self‐propping displaced rough surfaces of hard‐rock fractures caused by ...

Guide to the geology of Bradgate Park and Swithland Wood, Charnwood Forest [PDF]

, 2010
Charnwood Forest is one of the few parts of England where there are exposures of ‘basement’ rocks dating back to Precambrian time. Its locally rugged topography is caused by these highly resistant rocks protruding as craggy knolls through a surrounding ...

Morphotectonic and neotectonic control on river pattern in the Sierra de la Cantera piedmont, Central Precordillera, province of San Juan, Argentina [PDF]

, 2013
The drainage pattern on the western piedmont of the Sierra de La Cantera is divergent, typical of alluvial fans and showing anomalies that are directly related to the trace of La Cantera thrust. In previous studies, two types of anomalies were identified:
