A New Data‐Driven Bayesian Inversion of Fluvial Topography Clarifies the Tectonic History of the Corinth Rift and Reveals a Channel Steepness Threshold

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2021
Landscape evolution models that invert topography for rock uplift can improve our understanding of both tectonic and geomorphic processes when properly constrained with data.

Seismic Exploration of the Deep Structure and Seismogenic Faults in the Ligurian Sea by Joint Multi Channel and Ocean Bottom Seismic Acquisitions: Preliminary Results of the SEFASILS Cruise

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
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 ...

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 377-399., 2021

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.

Seismological and Gravity Data Integration to Derive Regional Fault and Subduction Systems in Myanmar [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
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 of the benue trough

open access: yesGlobal Journal of Geological Sciences, 2006
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.

A review on the analysis of aeromagnetic anomaly and its geological and tectonic applications

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2022
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.

Active Inversion Tectonics from Algiers to Sicily [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Using an updated active faults map in the easternmost Western Mediterranean (Algeria to Calabria), plus constraints from geodesy (GPS horizontal motion) and seismology (focal mechanisms) input in a strain model, we discussed how the slow Africa-Eurasia motion (4 mm/year) is accommodated along this segment of the Mediterranean. The width of the inverted

Jurassic–Early Cenozoic Tectonic Inversion in the Qilian Shan and Qaidam Basin, North Tibet: New Insight From Seismic Reflection, Isopach Mapping, and Drill Core Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019
The pre‐Cenozoic structural pattern of Asia has had a strong impact on the localization and propagation of the Cenozoic deformation that gave birth to the Tibetan Plateau.

Stretching and Contraction of Extensional Basins With Pre-Rift Salt: A Numerical Modeling Approach

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
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.
