Regional tectonic uplift indicated by geomorphological parameters in the Bahe River Basin, central China

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2023
Multiple uplifts of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau since the late Cenozoic have generated large effects on the geomorphology and environment over Asia. However, how the basin responded to the uplifted Tibetan Plateau remains unknown.

Evidence of Quaternary tectonics along Río Grande valley, southern Malargüe fold and thrust belt, Mendoza, Argentina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Malargüe fold and thrust belt is developed in the Argentinian Andes between 34° and 37° S, through the tectonic inversion of Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic depocenters of the Neuquén Basin, with an uplift history since the Cretaceous.

Tectonic control on southern Sierra Nevada topography, California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this study we integrate the apatite (U-Th)/He thermochronometric technique with geomorphic, structural, and stratigraphic studies to pursue the origin and evolution of topographic relief related to extensive late Cenozoic faulting in the southern ...

Emergence of the Shackleton Range from beneath the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to glacial erosion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper explores the long-term evolution of a subglacial fjord landscape in the Shackleton Range, Antarctica. We propose that prolonged ice-sheet erosion across a passive continental margin caused troughs to deepen and lower the surrounding ice-sheet ...

Tectonic geomorphology of Bozdoğan and Karacasu grabens, western Anatolia

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2023
Western Anatolia is one of the most rapidly extending and seismically active regions in the world. The circa N-S extension since the Early Miocene caused the formation of E-W trending major grabens and intervening horsts, having earthquake potentials ...
