ABSTRACT We present novel 3D subsidence data enabling vertical movements' quantification during the early formation of the Pyrenean retro‐wedge. From Cenomanian to Turonian times, subsidence is relatively low (~26 ± 10 m/Myr), corresponding to a brief 10 Myr thermal re‐equilibration of the European lithosphere following the hyperextended rift episode ...

El sustantivo crecimiento del número de tesauros no ha servido para responder a la necesidad de trabajar en entornos multidisciplinares. Para responder a esta situación, se fomentó, en un primer momento, la fusión de tesauros con objeto de adaptar los ...

Abstract The southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP) plays a pivotal role in accommodating intra‐continental deformation driven by the ongoing India‐Eurasia convergence. However, its contemporary surface vertical motions and the underlying geodynamic processes remain highly debated.

Numerical Modeling of Purely Active (Plume‐Produced) Continental Rifting and Break‐Up
Abstract In contrast to the traditional mechanism of passive continental rifting (driven by far‐field tectonic forces), the active rifting‐to‐break‐up processes (caused by rising mantle plumes) are still poorly understood. However, most episodes of fragmentation of the last supercontinent Pangea were relatively shortly preceded (within ∼10 Myr) by the ...

Abstract An updated approach to seismically constrained modeling of gravity data reveals two broad, NW‐trending low‐density zones in the mantle lithosphere beneath the Canadian Cordillera. The low‐density zones coincide with a shallow lithosphere‐asthenosphere boundary (LAB), a shallow Curie‐point depth, and the location of Quaternary volcanoes.

A Seismically Active Shear Zone in the Uppermost Mantle Beneath the Canadian Rockies
Abstract Continental mantle earthquakes are uncommon but hold important clues for understanding lithospheric rheology. Few of these earthquakes (<10) have been documented in western North America, though it is likely more exist owing to difficulties in resolving focal depth for small earthquakes.

Abstract A limitation in our understanding of the geodynamics of orogenies is the difficulty in resolving the spatial variations in long‐term processes such as exhumation of the crust. Although geodesy can record ground motions to millimeter‐scale precision at high spatial and temporal resolutions, these observations only cover a small fraction of the ...

Evolução teórica sobre tesauro
Estudo de la evolución teórica acerca de los tesauros según el discurso del investigador Dagobert Soergel. Los tesauros son instrumentos de control de vocabulario, representación y recuperación de la información, utilizados en la indización. El reto fue de analizar el discurso de Soergel en sus artículos sobre la construcción, funciones, mantenimiento,

Desambiguação de relações em tesauros e o seu reúso em ontologias
Um tesauro é composto de conceitos organizados por uma rede paradigmática (relações essenciais e estáveis entre termos e conceitos), e uma rede sintagmática (relações específicas em um contexto de uso).

Secular Evolution of the Seismic Structure of Continental Crust, Archean to Present
Abstract We summarize the seismic and density structure of continental crust as a function of crustal age and evaluate the secular changes in these physical properties. We subdivide the continental crust into six age provinces, from Archean to Mesozoic‐Cenozoic, and calculate the surface area, mean crustal thickness, volume, mass, and seismic velocity ...
