Reconstructing the Late Palaeozoic – Mesozoic topographic evolution of the Chinese Tian Shan: available data and remaining uncertainties [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2013
The topographic evolution of continents and especially the growth and dismembering of mountain ranges plays a major role in the tectonic evolution of orogenic systems, as well as in regional or global climate changes.

Cenozoic Plate Tectonic Reconstructions and Plate Boundary Processes in the Southwest Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The Australia-Pacific-Antarctic plate circuit has long been a weak link in global plate reconstruction models for Cenozoic time. The time period spanning chron 20 to chron 7 (43-25 Ma) is particularly problematic for global plate models because seafloor

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 ...

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.

Identification and evolution of tectonic units in the Philippine Sea Plate

open access: yesChina Geology, 2022
The Philippine Sea Plate is located at the convergence zone of the Eurasian Plate, the Pacific Plate, and the Indo-Australian Plate. This paper divides the Philippine Sea Plate into two second-order tectonic units and eight third-order tectonic units by ...
