Finite‐Frequency Tomography of the Upper Mantle Beneath the Proterozoic Capricorn Orogen in the Central West Australian Craton

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Capricorn Orogen, central to the West Australian Craton (WAC) and flanked by the Pilbara Craton to the north and the Yilgarn Craton to the south, records complex tectonic processes spanning from the Archean to the Neoproterozoic, including two major Paleoproterozoic collisions—the 2,215–2,145 Ma Ophthalmia Orogeny and the 2,005–1,950 Ma ...

Three-dimensional field perspective on deformation, flow, and growth of the lower continental crust (Dharwar craton, India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The study of fabric development and juvenile batholith emplacement across the tilted crustal section of the Eastern Dharwar craton shows that horizontal, constrictional deformation affected large volumes of the midcrust and lower crust at the time of ...

Aseismic Slip on the Ilyak Strike‐Slip Fault (Tajikistan) and Active Fault and Landslide Hazards in and Around the Tajik Basin Revealed by InSAR

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...

Evolving Strain Partitioning Driven by Multiple Plate Interaction—Paleotectonic Reconstruction of Northwestern South America During the Cenozoic

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract In Northwestern South America (NWSA) geodetic observations point to a consistent northeastward displacement of blocks, while the geological record shows a predominant shortening in NW‐SE direction. Such clear evidence of strain partitioning has been extensively studied in the context of two convergent plates, but not in complex tectonic area ...

The structure and petrology of the Cnoc nan Cuilean Intrusion, Loch Loyal Syenite Complex, NW Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In NW Scotland, several alkaline intrusive complexes of Silurian age intrude the Caledonian orogenic front. The most northerly is the Loch Loyal Syenite Complex, which is divided into three separate intrusions (Ben Loyal, Beinn Stumanadh and Cnoc nan ...
