Intercontinental response to variations in the Arabia-Eurasia Plate convergence, calcite e-twin evidence of the Kuhbanan Fault system, Central Iran
Variations in the plate convergence direction have generally reflected on the kinematics of the major fault zones developed in the intercontinental...

Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous tectonic switching in Liaodong Peninsula of the North China Craton and the implications for gold mineralisation
Constraining the processes of deformation during tectonic switching from compression to extension is difficult because of the scarcity or absence of...

The role of precursory structures on Tertiary deformation in the Black Forest—Hegau region
Structural inheritance of preexisting crustal discontinuities is widely accepted to have played a crucial role during the Cenozoic tectonic evolution...

Alluvial sedimentation and tectono-stratigraphic evolution in a narrow extensional zigzag basin margin (northern Teruel Basin, Spain)
The northern part of the eastern margin of the extensional Neogene Teruel Basin (central-eastern Spain) consists of a non-linear, zigzag fault zone...

Structure and emplacement of the Coastal Deccan tholeiitic dyke swarm in Goa, on the western Indian rifted margin
Mafic dyke swarms, when controlled by a regional stress field, are emplaced perpendicular to the minimum principal compressive stress direction....

Orogen-parallel brittle extension as a major tectonic imprint in the Neogene evolution of the south-western Alpine arc
We present a new analysis of the late Alpine brittle deformation in the southern branch of the western Alpine arc, focusing on the stack of internal...

Statistical model selection between elastic and Newtonian viscous matrix models for the microboudin palaeopiezometer
We carried out statistical evaluations of two probability density functions for the microboudin palaeopiezometer using the Akaike information...

Formation of an intra-orogenic transtensional basin: the Neogene Wagrain basin in the Eastern Alps
The Neogene (ca. Ottnangian to Lower Badenian) Wagrain basin formed within a halfgraben, close to the north-eastern edge of the exhuming and...

Prediction of natural fractures in the Lower Jurassic Ahe Formation of the Dibei Gasfield, Kuqa Depression, Tarim Basin, NW China
The Lower Jurassic low porosity and low permeability Ahe Formation is the major reservoir of Dibei Gasfield in the Kuqa Depression, Tarim Basin....

Large landslide stress states calculated during extreme climatic and tectonic events on El Hierro, Canary Islands
Composed volcanic edifices are particularly prone to large-scale failures—these often result from the acceleration of preexisting deep-seated...
