The Impact of Democratization and Globalization on Environmental Sustainability in Brazil

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Fossil fuel, economic globalisation, and economic growth drive environmental degradation while democratisation positively influences environmental quality. ABSTRACT Although Brazil still possesses significant ecological reserves, the surplus in its biocapacity has been rapidly declining in recent years.

Deep structure of the Baringo Rift Basin (central Kenya) from three-dimensional magnetotelluric imaging: Implications for rift evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Three-dimensional modeling of data from 31 vertical electrical and 24 magnetotelluric soundings collected in the Baringo-Bogoria Basin (central Kenya Rift Valley) shows a thick succession of well-defined tectonostratigraphic units beneath the Recent ...

Analysing the Drivers of Cropland Footprint in Leading Agricultural Nations: Evidence From MMQR Approach

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change represents the biggest current challenge for us and for future generations. Its impact on agriculture is undeniable, considering the food security goal. Thus, the cropland footprint has been distinguished as a comprehensive index for assessing the impact of environmental changes in agricultural areas determined by the increased ...

Post mid-Cretaceous inversion tectonics in the Danish Central Graben – regionally synchronous tectonic events? [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Geological Society of Denmark, 2002
Structural analysis of the Upper Cretaceous to Palaeogene succession in the Danish Central Graben suggests continuous inversion heralded in the Late Hauterivian and continuing into Palaeogene times. The following phases of increased intensity are identified: 1) latest Santonian, 2) Mid Campanian, 3) late Maastrichtian, 4) Late Paleocene – Eocene, and 5)

Notable Impact of Paleotectonic Stress on Gold Mineralisation in the West Qinling Orogen

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
By applying fuzzy clustering and multiple inverse methods, we systematically processed the data of vein and fault slip in this ore deposit to reveal the transition of orogenic geological environment and paleotectonic stress field. Our research results show two different stress states: the northwest–southeast extensional stress field and the northeast ...

Reconstruction of the Cenozoic Deformation of the Yinggehai Basin and Beibu Gulf Basin, South China Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study employs structural information and stratigraphic lithology as constraints to conduct balanced restoration on seismic profiles from the Yinggehai Basin (YGB) and the Beibu Gulf Basin (BGB).

Multiphase Tectonic Process With Slab Dynamics in the Northern East China Sea Shelf Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Megasequence 1 characterised by Palaeocene extension and differential subsidence driven by the rollback of the subducting Izanagi Plate. Megasequence 2 records a kinematic reorganisation of the East Asian margin, transition from a rifting to a compressional regime.

Spherical Gravity Inversion Reveals Crustal Structure and Microplate Tectonics in the Caribbean Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
As a convergent zone of multiple plates, the Caribbean Sea and its adjacent areas have experienced a complex tectonic evolution process and are characterized by prominent microplate development.

Seismic Sequence Stratigraphy Applied to Reservoir Recognition and Evolution on Marine Carbonatic Ramp—Macaé Group (Albian to Cenomanian) of Campos Basin

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
A classic oil producing interval of the Campos Basin—Macaé Group is revisited through seismic stratigraphic analysis, providing a stratigraphic framework, characteristic depositional and relative time positioning for several complex structural settings.
