Transform fault earthquakes in the North Atlantic: Source mechanisms and depth of faulting [PDF]
The centroid depths and source mechanisms of 12 large earthquakes on transform faults of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge were determined from an inversion of long-period body waveforms.

Inverse-forward method for heat flow estimation: case study for the Arctic region
The heat flow data are important in many aspects including interpretation of various geophysical observations, solutions of important engineering problems, modelling of the ice dynamics, and related environmental assessment.

Geodetic model of the 2016 Central Italy earthquake sequence inferred from InSAR and GPS data [PDF]
We investigate a large geodetic data set of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR)and GPS measurements to determine the source parameters for the three main shocks of the 2016Central Italy earthquake sequence on 24 August and 26 and 30 October (

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.

Structural framework and evolution of the Golfo San Jorge Basin: a synthesis
The Golfo San Jorge Basin evolved through a complex multiphase structural history from the Middle Jurassic to the Neogene. Its stratigraphic record captures key tectonic events in central extra-Andean Patagonia during Gondwana fragmentation and the ...

Evidence of Quaternary tectonics along Río Grande valley, southern Malargüe fold and thrust belt, Mendoza, Argentina [PDF]
The Malargüe fold and thrust belt is developed in the Argentinian Andes between 34° and 37° S, through the tectonic inversion of Upper Triassic and Lower Jurassic depocenters of the Neuquén Basin, with an uplift history since the Cretaceous.

Petrologic evidence for earliest Miocene tectonic mobility on eastern Taranaki Basin margin [PDF]
At Gibsons Beach on the west coast of central North Island, the earliest Miocene (Waitakian) Otorohanga Limestone, the top-most formation in the Te Kuiti Group, is unconformably overlain on an undulating, locally channelised erosion surface by the Early ...

Post-depositional tectonic modifications of VMS deposits in Iberia and its economic significance [PDF]
The original stratigraphic relationships and structure of VMS deposits are commonly obscured by deformation. This can also affect their economic significance, as shown by several Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB, SW Iberia) examples.
