Cenozoic tropical carbonate platforms in the Santos Basin, SE Brazilian Margin
ABSTRACT Tropical carbonate platforms accompanied the latitudinal shifts of the tropical belt throughout the Cenozoic. Their flat‐topped geometries were influenced by a specific set of processes, including climate and sea‐level changes, carbonate facies, tectonics and continental runoff.

Colombia and other tropical regions face a very high threat from torrential floods, which have resulted in over 25,000 deaths in a single event. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive assessment methodology to zone and determine the magnitude of these disasters; therefore, this research aims to help fill this gap.

Abstract Caldera systems commonly experience inner resurgence, which shapes patterns of volcanic activity. However, incomplete reconstructions of past ground deformation can lead to incorrect recognition of precursory signals. The Campi Flegrei caldera (Italy) provides an exceptional opportunity to address this issue as uplifted marine sediments ...

Alluvial river response to active tectonics in the Dehradun region, Northwest India: A case study of the Ganga and Yamuna rivers. [PDF]
In environments characterised by active tectonics, it is widely accepted that river morphology will be affected by active fault displacement. For example, there is documented evidence of change in channel slope, channel width, channel braiding patterns ...
