Rates of erosion and landscape change along the Blue Ridge escarpment, southern Appalachian Mountains, estimated from in situ cosmogenic 10Be [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Blue Ridge escarpment, located within the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia and North Carolina, forms a distinct, steep boundary between the lower-elevation Piedmont and higher-elevation Blue Ridge physiographic provinces.

Structural modeling and evolution of the piedmont zone in north margin of Qaidam Basin, northeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesEnergy Exploration & Exploitation, 2020
The analysis and interpretation of the Dachaidan area, Qaidam Basin, is difficult, owing to the co-location of two groups of thrust faults (N–E faults and N–W faults) there and the area’s complicated structural deformation history.

Faulting patterns in the Lower Yarmouk Gorge potentially influence groundwater flow paths [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Recent studies investigating groundwater parameters, e.g., heads, chemical composition, and heat transfer, argued that groundwater flow paths in the Lower Yarmouk Gorge (LYG) area are controlled by geological features such as faults or dikes.

Analogue experiments on releasing and restraining bends and their application to the study of the Barents Shear Margin [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2023
The Barents Shear Margin separates the Svalbard and Barents Sea from the North Atlantic. During the break-up of the North Atlantic the plate tectonic configuration was characterized by sequential dextral shear, extension, and eventually contraction and ...

Tectonic characteristics and structural styles of a continental rifted basin: Revelation from deep seismic reflection profiles

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2016
The Fushan Depression is a half-graben rifted sub-basin located in the southeast of the Beibuwan Basin, South China Sea. The Paleogene Liushagang sequence is the main hydrocarbon-bearing stratigraphic unit in the sub-basin.

Formation, Rotation, and Present-Day Configuration of Kashmir and Peshawar Basins in NW Himalaya

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The thrust top intermontane basins that are located to the east of the Hazara-Kashmir syntaxis (HKS) in NW Himalaya are ∼NW–SE oriented and run parallel to the strike of the major Himalayan thrusts, which is in contrast to the similar basins that lie at ...
