Evaluation of Morphotectonic Indices in Qangholichay Basin [PDF]

open access: yesجغرافیا و آمایش شهری منطقه‌ای, 2017
Neo-tectonic is of dynamic factors which  always affects on the watersheds and rivers. Neo-tectonic is said to  the new tectonic factors which mainly reflects in the faults. Displacement of faults can trigger the epicenters of the earthquake, the release

Active Tectonics of the Pyrenees: A review

open access: yesJournal of Iberian Geology, 2012
The Pyrenees have experienced at least seven earthquakes with magnitude M > 5 in the last 400 years. During the last decades, several seismotectonic, neotectonic and paleoseismological studies have focused on identifying the main active structures of the areas experiencing damaging earthquakes.

Plate tectonics: When ancient continents collide [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The geological record preserves scant evidence for early plate tectonics. Analysis of eclogites — metamorphic rocks formed in subduction zones — in the Trans-Hudson mountain belt suggests modern-style subduction may have operated 1,800 million years ...

A perspective review of applications of the computed tomography (CT) scan imaging technique for microscopic reservoir rock characterization

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this review, the application of micro‐CT and medical‐CT scanning in the oil and gas industry has been thoroughly discussed. Recent improvements in DRP and modern imaging techniques in the oil and gas industry have been modeled using both experimental and simulation work.

Tectonic Activity Analysis of the Laji-Jishi Shan Fault Zone: Insights from Geomorphic Indices and Crustal Deformation Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Fault segmentation plays a critical role in assessing seismic hazards, particularly in tectonically complex regions. The Laji-Jishi Shan Fault Zone (LJSFZ), located on the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is a key structure that accommodates ...

The Biggest Plates on Earth: Plate Tectonics [PDF]

open access: yes
In this lesson, students investigate the movement of Earth's tectonic plates, the results of these movements, and how magnetic anomalies present at spreading centers document the motion of the crust. As a result of this activity, students will be able to

Corrosion effect of hydrochloric acid on the granite: Insights from electrical conductivity, mineral composition, and tensile behavior

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The evolution of electrical conductivity, mineral composition, and tensile behavior such as peak strength, average stiffness, and the energy evolution of the granite specimen under different HCl conditions are studied, analyzed as well as quantified, and investigated, respectively.

Comparative geospatial and statistical analysis of DEM-derived geomorphic indices from multiple datasets for assessing relative active tectonics

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Tectonic activity plays a vital role in achieving sustainable land management and hazard mitigation in seismically active regions. This study evaluates geomorphic indices derived from four digital elevation models (DEMs), including SRTM, Copernicus, FAB,

The Ability of Significant Tidal Stress to Initiate Plate Tectonics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Plate tectonics is a geophysical process currently unique to Earth, has an important role in regulating the Earth's climate, and may be better understood by identifying rocky planets outside our solar system with tectonic activity.
