TECTONOPHYSICAL INTERPRETATION OF EARTHQUAKE FOCAL MECHANISMS OF THE ZAGROS SYSTEM
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 Structural-paragenetic and kinematic methods of tectonophysics are applied to study earthquake focal mechanisms of the Zagros system. Nodal planes of focal mechanisms are identified as L-, L′- and R-, R′-shears by the first method, whereby coordinates of

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract The 1906 Manas Earthquake is the largest earthquake recorded in the Borohoro Shan (BRS) since 1900. The reported magnitude ranges from 7.2 to 8.3, but uncertainties remain regarding its size, mechanism, and responsible fault. Similar confusion exists for the 1812 Nilke and 1944 Xinyuan Earthquakes, the only other Mw > 7 earthquakes in the NE ...

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract While the evolution of individual passive marginal and foreland basins is well understood, the subsidence pattern of passive margins near convergence zones—where thrust loading overprints earlier extension and the typical wedge and foredeep are obscured—remains poorly understood.

FIELD TECTONOPHYSICS IN SOLUTIONS OF GEODYNAMIC EVOLUTION PROBLEMS OF THE UKRAINE TERRITORY
Геодинамика и тектонофизика, 2015 The integrated approach combining kinematic and structural-paragenetic field tectonophysics techniques allows us to construct a continuous time scan of the stress-strain state (SSS) and deformation modes (DM) from sediment lithification to the final ...

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.Abstract The assembly and breakup of the supercontinent Rodinia set the stage for Earth system evolution through the Neoproterozoic Era. Laurentia, the central craton in Rodinia, lacks well‐dated paleomagnetic poles between ca. 990 Ma and 780 Ma. In this study, we develop new U‐Pb petrochronology and thermochronology data sets from zircon, garnet ...

The role of passive margins on the evolution of Subduction-Transform Edge Propagators (STEPs)
, 2015 A Subduction-Transform Edge Propagator (STEP) is the locus of continual lithospheric tearing which enables subduction of one part of a tectonic plate, while the juxtaposed part remains at the surface. A key question is the propagation direction of active

Dimensions of the Atlantic-Mediterranean connection that caused the Messinian Salinity Crisis [PDF]
, 2015 What kind of gateway is needed to cause a salinity crisis? Although several reconstructions of possible Atlantic–Mediterranean gateways are proposed for the late Miocene, so far the gateway that must have existed before the desiccation of the ...
