Reconstruction of the Cenozoic deformation of the Bohai Bay Basin, North China
A well‐constrained plate deformation model may lead to an improved understanding of sedimentary basin formation and the connection between subduction history and over‐riding plate deformation.

The Stratigraphic Record of Pre-breakup Geodynamics: Evidence from the Barrow Delta, offshore Northwest Australia [PDF]
The structural and stratigraphic evolution of rift basins and passive margins has been widely studied, with many analyses demonstrating that delta systems can provide important records of post-rift geodynamic processes.

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

Tectonostratigraphic evolution of the Slyne Basin [PDF]
The Slyne Basin, located offshore NW Ireland, is a narrow and elongated basin composed of a series of interconnected grabens and half-grabens, separated by transfer zones coincident with deep crustal structures formed during the Silurian- to Devonian ...

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

Multiscale structure in sedimentary basins [PDF]
AbstractHierarchies of superimposed structures are found in maps of geological horizons in sedimentary basins. Mapping based on three‐dimensional (3D) seismic data includes structures that range in scale from tens of metres to hundreds of kilometres. Extraction of structures from these maps without a priori knowledge of scale and shape is analogous to ...

On the structure of the Lofoten Basin Eddy [PDF]
A small anticyclonic eddy of extraordinary intensity sits in the center of the Lofoten Basin near 69°40′N, 3°E. This paper gives a first detailed description of its kinematics and lowest‐order dynamic balances. Using a 75 kHz vessel‐mounted acoustic Doppler current profiler, hydrography, and six RAFOS floats to probe the eddy, we document a solid body ...

Tectonic control on southern Sierra Nevada topography, California [PDF]
In this study we integrate the apatite (U-Th)/He thermochronometric technique with geomorphic, structural, and stratigraphic studies to pursue the origin and evolution of topographic relief related to extensive late Cenozoic faulting in the southern ...
