Growth history of fault-related folds and interaction with seabed channels in the toe-thrust region of the deep-water Niger delta [PDF]
, 2015 The deep-water fold and thrust belt of the southern Niger Delta has prominent thrusts and folds oriented perpendicular to the regional slope that formed as a result of the thin-skinned gravitational collapse of the delta above overpressured shale.

Facies analysis provides new insights into event bed deposition in a hadal trench environment
Sedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 2, Page 441-477, February 2026.ABSTRACT Hadal trenches preserve exceptional sedimentary archives of past geological events, yet their depositional processes remain poorly constrained. The Japan Trench captures complex earthquake‐triggered event beds that record repeated sediment‐gravity flows that deliver terrigenous and biogenic material into the trench, informing palaeoseismic ...

Provenance history of a Late Triassic-Jurassic Gondwana margin forearc basin, Murihiku Terrane, North Island, New Zealand: petrographic and geochemical constraints [PDF]
, 2004 The Murihiku Terrane in the North Island was a forearc basin adjacent to a volcanic arc along the eastern margin of Gondwana during the Mesozoic. The rocks that infill the basin are mainly volcaniclastic sandstones and mudstones, often turbiditic, with ...

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract The structure and properties of mature upper oceanic plates may evolve through mechanisms such as magmatism, hydrothermal circulation, and faulting. However, high‐resolution constraints, especially those involving both P‐ and S‐waves, remain scarce, limiting our ability to detect these processes and assess their impacts on crustal properties ...

The stratigraphy, correlation, provenance and palaeogeography of the Skiddaw Group (Ordovician) in the English Lake District [PDF]
, 1995 A new lithostratigraphy is presented for the Skiddaw Group (lower Ordovician) of the English Lake District. Two stratigraphical belts are described. Five formations are defined in the Northern Fells Belt, ranging in age from Tremadoc to early Llanvirn.
