Evidence for an active transtensional Beaufort Range fault in the northern Cascadia forearc

Seismica
Geologic records of fault slip in subduction forearcs provide critical data on stress and strain in the upper plate and the seismogenic potential of hazardous faults.

Influencia de la tectónica cenozoica del Antearco peruano en el mecanismo de deformación del Morro Solar mediante el análisis estructural

Revista del Instituto de Investigación de la Facultad de Minas, Metalurgia y Ciencias Geográficas, 2019
Los afloramientos rocosos del Morro Solar tienen su origen en el Cretáceo inferior durante un régimen tectónico puramente extensional el cual a partir del Cretáceo superior y durante el Cenozoico cambió a un régimen compresional ligado a un contexto de ...

Gravity Survey on the Oil-Bearing Dammam Dome (Eastern Saudi Arabia) and Its Implications

Remote Sensing, 2022
A detailed gravity survey with 235 measurements was carried out at the King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals campus, which is located at the crest of the oil-bearing Dammam Dome (Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia). This survey allows us to better

Plio-Quaternary tectonic evolution of the southern margin of the Alboran Basin (Western Mediterranean) [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2020
Progress in the understanding and dating of the sedimentary record of the Alboran Basin allows us to propose a model of its tectonic evolution since the Pliocene.

From the Bottom Up: Calculating Mantle‐Derived Magma Flux Using Subduction Parameters and Petrologic Constraints at Oceanic Arcs

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Mantle‐derived magma flux has a first‐order control on long‐term volcanic productivity, volatile cycling, and crustal growth in convergent margins. However, the factors controlling it remain unclear. We used a simplified, 3D conceptualization of an intraoceanic subduction zone and petrologic constraints on mantle melting to calculate mantle ...

Sedimentary lithofacies, petrography and diagenesis of the Kapuni group in the Kapuni Field, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science with Honours in Earth Science at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2004
The reservoir architecture and quality of the Kapuni Group sandstones in seven wells (Kapuni−1, −3, −8, −12, Deep−1, 14 and −15) in the Kapuni Field are characterised using available core and digital geophysical log data.

Kinematics of the South Atlantic rift [PDF]

, 2013
The South Atlantic rift basin evolved as branch of a large Jurassic-Cretaceous intraplate rift zone between the African and South American plates during the final breakup of western Gondwana.

Cenozoic Evolution of the North‐Eastern Mediterranean Basins

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract The Eastern Mediterranean lies at the junction of the African, Arabian, and Eurasian plates, a region shaped by a long and complex tectonic history. While the Levant Basin in the southern sector has been extensively studied for hydrocarbon exploration, the northern domain offshore Cyprus, Turkey, Syria, and Lebanon remains less understood.

Beachrock formation influenced by co‐seismic deformation and relative sea‐level changes during the Holocene near the Gulf of Saros, Türkiye (NE Aegean Sea)

Boreas, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 231-257, January 2026.
This is the first proof of beachrock found on the nearshore of the Gulf of Saros. Beachrock generation was influenced by tectonic activity, geomorphological processes, and sedimentation. The Late Holocene beachrock deposits were altered by co‐seismic deformation.

Twenty million years of continuous deformation along theKarakorum fault, western Tibet: A thermochronological analysis. [PDF]

, 2007
The role of the Karakorum fault zone (KFZ) is debated. South of 33°N, ongoing dextral-oblique slip along the SW edge of the Gar basin exhumes metamorphic and magmatic rocks of the Ayilari range.
