The north Ligurian margin is a complex geological area in many ways. It has witnessed several phases of highly contrasting deformation styles, at both crustal scale and that of shallower cover tectonics, simultaneously or in quick succession, and with ...

Inversion tectonics of the benue trough
The Benue Trough, an aulacogen at the entrant of the Gulf of Guinea in Nigeria, has been historically studied from the concepts of ortho-mio-eu-geosynclines at outcrops and in the subsurface. Its structural evolution reveals a tectonic scenario compatible with Plate tectonic evolution of the Atlantic Ocean.

Seismological and Gravity Data Integration to Derive Regional Fault and Subduction Systems in Myanmar [PDF]
Tectonic activity in Myanmar is influenced by the convergence of the Indian Plate and the Burma Plate, which form an active subduction zone in western Myanmar (Rakhine) and the Sagaing Fault system in eastern Myanmar.

Magnetic Inversion and Regional Tectonics of the Dabie Orogen
Physical property inversion techniques are the methods to reveal the internal structures of Earth’s lithosphere. In this study, we introduce an Occam-type inversion algorithm into a spherical coordinate system, and invert the magnetization based on the three-component magnetic anomalies.

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

A review on the analysis of aeromagnetic anomaly and its geological and tectonic applications
Aeromagnetic anomaly has the obvious advantages of wide coverage, low cost and high lateral resolution in geological structure research, and has been widely used in concealed magmatic rock and faults detection, tectonic characteristics (e.g.

Stretching and Contraction of Extensional Basins With Pre-Rift Salt: A Numerical Modeling Approach
We present a series of 2D thermo-mechanical numerical experiments of thick-skinned crustal extension including a pre-rift salt horizon and subsequent thin-, thick-skinned, or mixed styles of convergence accompanied by surface processes.
