Geomorphological insight into changing tectonic regime, Pasinler Basin, Turkey [PDF]
The Pasinler Basin, in the East Anatolian Contractional Province, features a suite of geomorphological zones, visible in the field, air photographs and Landsat and SRTM DEM imagery. These zones reflect past and current tectonically influenced processes.

Analysis of the Coal and Gas Outburst Mechanism from the Perspective of Tectonic Movement
Coal and gas outburst is the extreme instability caused by stress, gas, and coal. In this review article, dominant factors and inducing factors of outburst were summarized; geologic features of typical outburst cases and the effects of tectonic movement ...

Observation of local tectonic movements by a quartz-tube extensometer in the Sopronbánfalva Geodynamic Observatory, in Hungary–Validation of extensometric data by tidal analysis and simultaneous radon concentration measurements [PDF]
In 1990 a quartz tube extensometer was installed in the Sopronbánfalva Geodynamic Observatory (SGO) of the Geodetic and Geophysical Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. On the basis of the 20 year data series, an average strain rate

Tectonic stress controls saucer-shaped sill geometry and emplacement mechanism
Saucer-shaped sills are common in sedimentary basins worldwide. The saucer shape relates to asymmetric sill-tip stress distributions during intrusion caused by bending of the overburden.

Application of Linked Stress Release Model To Historical Earthquake Data: Comparison Between Two Kinds of Tectonic Seismicity [PDF]
The linked stress release model, incorporating a slow buildup of stress within a seismic region, its stochastic release through earthquakes and transfer between seismic regions, is applied to fit historical data from two typical kinds of seismicity ...

PRESENTDAY STRESS STATE OF THE SHANXI TECTONIC BELT
The Shanxi tectonic belt is a historically earthquakeabundant area. For the majority of strong earthquakes in this area, the distribution of earthquake foci was controlled by the N–S oriented local structures on the tectonic belt.

Mechanism for stress abnormality and rock burst in variation zone of roof-stratum thickness
The roof stratum structure is one of the main factors affecting coal burst, and the coal burst is also easily induced in the variation zone of roof-stratum thickness. This phenomenon is gradually severe in deep mining areas in Inner Mongolia.

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.
