Normal fault evolution in Lishu Fault Depression, southern Songliao Basin

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2021
The formation of the Songliao Basin was affected by multidirectional tectonic stress and various peripheral structural belts, and has a complicated geological structure and basin evolution process.

Tectonic evolution of the Leshan-Longnüsi paleo-uplift and its control on gas accumulation in the Sinian strata

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2012
Based on structural interpretation of the recent seismic data in central Sichuan Basin, combined with data of drilling and outcrops around the basin, this paper discusses the evolutional characteristics of unconformities at various stages in the Leshan ...

Tectonic controls on the pre-salt hydrocarbon distribution in block A of Campos Basin, Brazil

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2020
Block A in the southern Campos Basin in the deep water of Brazil has complicated pre-salt structures as a result of the Late Jurassic tectonic activity. Based on new 3D seismic and drilling data, the geological attributes, fault development and tectonic ...

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

On the origin of the North Pacific arcs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present a new hypothesis that relates global plate tectonics to the formation of marginal basins, island arcs, spreading ridges and arc-shaped mountain belts around the North Pacific Ocean.

Kinematics of the Helminthoid Flysch–Marguareis Unit tectonic coupling: consequences for the tectonic evolution of Western Ligurian Alps

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2022
We investigated the kinematics of the coupled Helminthoid Flysch–Marguareis Unit outcropping in the High Tanaro Valley in order to constraint the tectonic evolution of the Western Ligurian Alps.

The evolution of plate tectonics [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2018
To understand how plate tectonics became Earth's dominant mode of convection, we need to address three related problems. (i) What was Earth's tectonic regime before the present episode of plate tectonics began? (ii) Given the preceding tectonic regime, how did plate tectonics become established?
