Analysis of Characteristics and Main Controlling Factors of Shallow Geological Hazards in the Zhongsha Islands Region of the South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study utilized single-channel seismic, multi-channel seismic, and multibeam bathymetric data to examine the distribution and geomorphological background of geological hazards in the Zhongsha Islands region of the South China Sea.

Structural-tectonic architecture of limestone quarry Gombasek on Plešivec Plateau of Silica Nappe [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2006
Investigation of bends, fold deformations, sigmoidal foliation trend as well as displacement of Silica Nappe surfaces revealed gradual evolution of Late Cretaceous tectonic movements in the limestone quarry Gombasek located on Plešivec Plateau of Silica ...

Impact of volcanism on the sedimentary record of the Neuquén rift basin, Argentina: towards a cause and effect model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The analysis of volcano-sedimentary infill in sedimentary basins constitutes a challenge for basin analysis and hydrocarbon exploration worldwide. In order to understand the contribution of volcanism to the sedimentary record in rift basins, we study the

Generalized Matsuoka–Nakai criterion considering hydrostatic pressure dependence in the brittle–ductile region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Three sets of strength data were selected, including hydrostatic pressure independent within the brittle region (HPI‐B), hydrostatic pressure dependent within the brittle region (HPD‐B), and hydrostatic pressure dependent within the brittle–ductile region (HPD‐BD). For HPI type, the failure envelope within the deviatoric plane remains constant.

Experimental study on burning rate and flame geometry in construction tunnel fires under high geothermal conditions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...

Constrained gravity inversion unravels the Moho depth and tectonic patterns in China and its adjacent areas

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Physics
The Mohorovicic discontinuity (Moho) boundary separating the Earth’s crust and mantle reflects the evolutionary trajectory of the Earth’s crust, yielding crucial insights into crustal formation, tectonic evolution, and profound dynamic processes. However,

Greenstone belt tectonics: Thermal constraints [PDF]

open access: yes
Archaean rocks provide a record of the early stages of planetary evolution. The interpretation is frustrated by the probable unrepresentative nature of the preserved crust and by the well known ambiguities of tectonic geological synthesis.

Gravity-flow dominated sedimentation on the Buda paleoslope (Hungary): Record of Late Eocene continental escape of the Bakony unit [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The Upper Eocene sequence of the Buda Hills consists of fluvial and shallow marine conglomerates, sandstones, bioclastic shallow-water limestone, marlstone and pelagic Globigerina marl.

Slip versus dilation tendency parameter space as a tool for prospecting structurally controlled geothermal systems in greenfield: insights from the greater Ruhr region

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study highlights that with the static and time‐dependent evolution of slip versus dilation tendency parameter space, structurally controlled deep geothermal systems can be selected within areas of higher permeability and lower seismic hazard. Abstract Faults play a vital role in the Earth's hydraulic system by facilitating fluid flow when dilating
