Ediacara Obscura: Unveiling Hidden Magnetisations in the Fen Complex, Southern Norway

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Paleomagnetic directions found in Ediacaran (635–539 Ma) rocks are widely dispersed, which has led to conflicting hypotheses about tectonic regimes and geomagnetic field behavior during this period, and raised doubts about the fidelity of the ...

Forward Image Registration for Higher Level Interpretation of Zircon Provenance Based on Combined CL, U/Pb Age, and Geochemical Data

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Most detrital zircon studies generate grayscale cathodoluminescence (CL) images, U/Pb dates, and variably extensive trace element concentration data. Yet the combined information contained in these data is rarely used for a higher‐level interpretation of zircon provenance, which still heavily relies on comparison of sample‐wide U/Pb age ...

Origin, Recurrent Reactivations, and Tectonic Role of Transverse Zones in Thrust‐and‐Fold Belts: The Central Southern Alps (Italy)

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Transverse zones (TZs) in fold‐and‐thrust belts typically comprise strike‐slip to transpressional faults and related folds, oriented sub‐parallel to the regional shortening direction. These zones are typically associated with inherited faults or lateral stratigraphic changes, which promote strain partitioning, stress rotation, and kinematic ...

Probabilistic Assessment of Variable Slip Rates of Offshore Buried Thrusts in the Central Adriatic Sea (Italy) Since the Pliocene Time

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Understanding the recent tectonic activity of buried faults represents a challenge for scientists. In the offshore portion of the Northern and Central Apennines foredeep basin in the Central Adriatic Sea, Italy, high sedimentation rates, exceeding tectonic uplift since the Pliocene, and the offshore location are hampering the detection of ...

Structural Evolution of the Gaggiano High: A Preserved Rift‐Related Structural High in the Western Po Plain (Italy)

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The Gaggiano High, buried beneath the sediments of the Western Po Plain (northern Italy), represents one of the few examples of Mesozoic structural highs largely preserved within a foreland–foredeep system. Unlike the adjacent Lacchiarella Basin, which underwent strong positive inversion during the Neogene, the Gaggiano High experienced only ...

Sedimentary evidence for the connection between the southern margin of the Ordos Basin and the Paleotethys Ocean during the Permian to Early Triassic

Meitian dizhi yu kantan
Objective Understanding the Permian-Early Triassic sedimentary environments along the southern margin of the Ordos Basin (also referred to as the SMOB) and their tectono-sedimentary responses to the Paleotethys Ocean plays a key role in determining the ...

Laurasian Seaway History During the Early Jurassic From Quantitative Mineralogy and Detrital Zircon Dating

Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology, Volume 41, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The Laurasian Seaway comprises a N‐S oriented trans‐Pangaean corridor linking Tethys to the Boreal Sea during the Jurassic, and direction of water flow has been the subject of considerable debate. The Llanbedr (Mochras Farm) borehole, Cardigan Bay Basin, Wales, is a uniquely informative record that comprises an expanded deep‐marine silty ...

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
K‐Pg transition and Maastrichtian stage of sedimentary basin evolution of the Eastern Sakarya Zone. ABSTRACT This study reconstructs the late Campanian–Thanetian tectonic and sedimentary evolution of the Eastern Sakarya Zone Basin (Türkiye) during the closure of the Neotethys Ocean, through the integration of tectonic, biostratigraphic and sedimentary ...

A >300 Myr Long‐Lived Topographic Highland Along the Northern North China Craton Margin Driven by Multistage Continental Convergence

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Topographic highlands commonly develop along convergent plate boundaries through long‐term processes such as subduction and continental collision. However, the pre‐Cenozoic mountain‐building history of deep‐time orogenic systems in northeastern Pangaea remains poorly constrained due to later tectonic overprinting and denudation.
