Finite-difference numerical modeling of sub-thrust inversion tectonics

open access: yes, 2018
In collisional foredeeps, rifted continental margins become buried by foreland sedimentary deposits and, ultimately, are overridden by advancing fold-and-thrust belts. With ongoing collision, stresses are transmitted into the foreland plate, causing positive inversion of buried rift basins in the sub-thrust region; ultimately, rift basins may

Tectonic inversion events in the western San Jorge Gulf Basin from seismic, borehole and field data

open access: yes, 2015
The San Jorge Gulf Basin, located in Central Patagonia, has been interpreted as a Jurassic-Cretaceous rift basin that was later inverted mainly in its western sector.

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

User Acceptance and Perceptions of Earthquake Early Warning Systems as a Function of Information Type: The Case of Postearthquake Nepal

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
What drives user perceptions and acceptance of earthquake early warning systems (EEWS) as an emerging technology? Do distinct types of transparency into EEWS affect users’ perceptions of the system's usefulness and desirability differently? To address these questions, we focus on Nepal, an earthquake‐prone country with no active public EEWS ...

South Atlantic continental margins of Africa: a comparison of the tectonic vs climate interplay on the evolution of equatorial west Africa and SW Africa margins

open access: yes, 2005
The comparative review of 2 representative segments of Africa continental margin: the equatorial western Africa and the SW Africa margins, helps in analysing the main controlling factors on their development.

Automated Three‐Dimensional Reflection Traveltime Modelling to Extract 3D Dipping Layer Geometries

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, Volume 74, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Steep geological structures are critical for improved understanding of tectonic processes and fluid circulation, particularly in crystalline settings. However, accurately determining their geometry at depth remains a challenge for conventional 2D surveys.

Tectonic inversion of the Dnieper-Donets depression and the Donbas (models and reconstructions)

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2019
For the southeastern part of the DDD and the Donbas prolongation of basin modeling to the area of late post-rift and following inverse co-folding movements has been methodically justified.   Predictive analysis with recovered volume of eroded sediments

Influence of Lateral Input of Sediments on Longitudinal Luminescence Signal in a River (Rakaia River, Aotearoa New Zealand)

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 7, 16 April 2026.
Abstract Rivers transport sediments from mountains to oceans, shaping landscapes and transmitting environmental signals. This transfer is repeatedly interrupted by storage and remobilization, complicating efforts to reconstruct erosion histories. Luminescence‐based methods, which exploit the progressive zeroing of the luminescence signals (bleaching ...

Investigating the influence of climate and volcanic surface aging on fluvial erosion: A case study of Réunion Island, Indian Ocean

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 4, April 2026.
Réunion Island is marked by gradients in both precipitation and surface age. Analyzing correlations between metrics related to precipitation, age, and drainage basin morphology, we demonstrate how volcanic surface age impacts the effects of average precipitation and precipitation variability on fluvial erosion.

Recent Seismic Activity in the Azores Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This seismic activity in the Azores Region is characterized by sequences of low-magnitude events, usually with epicenter off-shore. These seismic sequences are sometimes triggered by larger events, felt by the population, that could produce significant ...
