Deformational sequence of inversion in the Paramirim Aulacogen, northern region of the intracontinental sector of the Araçuaí Orogen [PDF]
The Paramirim Aulacogen was filled by the Espinhaço and São Francisco supergroups in the period from 1.75 to 0.69 Ga, and suffered partial inversion during the Ediacaran.

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.

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 ...

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.

Inversion tectonics: a brief petroleum industry perspective [PDF]
Abstract. Inverted structures provide traps for petroleum exploration, typically four-way structural closures. As to the degree of inversion, based on a large number of worldwide examples seen in various basins, the most preferred petroleum exploration targets are mild to moderate inversion structures, defined by the location of the null points.

Tectonic discrimination diagrams revisited [PDF]
The decision boundaries of most tectonic discrimination diagrams are drawn by eye. Discriminant analysis is a statistically more rigorous way to determine the tectonic affinity of oceanic basalts based on their bulk-rock chemistry.

The offshore western Sicily region is located at the active Africa-Eurasia plate boundary, between the southern Tyrrhenian backarc basin and the African continental margin, where tectonic processes make this sector prone to strong earthquakes and ...

Constraints on the thermal and tectonic evolution of Greymouth coalfield [PDF]
The southern end of the Paparoa Range in Westland, South Island, New Zealand, comprises an asymmetrical, southward plunging, faulted (Brunner-Mt Davy) anticline, the eastern limb of which is common with the western limb of an asymmetrical (Grey Valley ...
