Seismic characteristics of polygonal fault systems in the Great South Basin, New Zealand
A well-developed multi-tier polygonal fault system is located in the Great South Basin offshore New Zealand’s South Island. The system has been characterised using a high-quality three-dimensional seismic survey tied to available exploration boreholes ...

Application of Change-Point Detection to a Structural Component of Water Quality Variables [PDF]
In this study, methodologies were developed in statistical time series models, such as multivariate state-space models, to be applied to water quality variables in a river basin.

The Laga basin: Stratigraphic and Structural Setting
Most of the ancient turbidite systems are known being deposited in foredeep basins at the front of active thrust belt. Differently from fluvio-deltaic systems generally lacated in the more internal portion of these basins, the turbidite systems occur at different depth in the more deeper portions of these basins (foredeep turbidite systems) or in the ...

Rates of erosion and landscape change along the Blue Ridge escarpment, southern Appalachian Mountains, estimated from in situ cosmogenic 10Be [PDF]
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 analysis of the Malay Basin [PDF]
The structural patterns within the Malay Basin are divided into fold and fault systems. Three main fold domains are demarcated based on fold geometry and characteristics of associated faults: Basin Hinge; Basin Axis; and Basin Ramp. As for fault systems, high density and low density fault domains are identified.

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

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.

Structure of the western Somali Basin [PDF]
The western Somali Basin in the northwestern Indian Ocean is covered by thick deposits of terrigenous sediments. Seismic reflection profiles show, however, the northern and southern parts to be very different. The northern sections is a deep basin filled with thick uniformly stratified sediments. It is enclosed by the continental margin to the west and

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 ...

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.
