Folding and necking across the scales: a review of theoretical and experimental results and their applicationsSolid Earth - Tập 7 Số 5 - Trang 1417-1465
Stefan M. Schmalholz, Neil S. Mancktelow
Abstract. The shortening and extension of mechanically layered ductile rock generates folds and pinch-and-swell structures (also referred to as necks or continuous boudins), which result from mechanical instabilities termed folding and necking, respectively. Folding and necking are the preferred deformation modes in layered rock because the corresponding mechanical work involved is less th...... hiện toàn bộ
Chronostratigraphic framework and provenance of the Ossa-Morena Zone Carboniferous basins (southwest Iberia)Solid Earth - Tập 11 Số 4 - Trang 1291-1312
Manuel Francisco Pereira, Cristina Gama, Ícaro Días da Silva, José Brandão Silva, Mandy Hofmann, Ulf Linnemann, Andreas Gärtner
Abstract. Carboniferous siliciclastic and silicic magmatic rocks from the
Santa Susana–São Cristovão and Cabrela regions contain valuable
information regarding the timing of synorogenic processes in SW Iberia. In
this region of the Ossa-Morena Zone (OMZ), late Carboniferous terrigenous
strata (i.e., the Santa Susana Formation) unconformably overlie early
Carboniferous marine siliciclastic ...... hiện toàn bộ
Nature of orogenesis and volcanism in the Caucasus region based on results of regional tomographySolid Earth - Tập 3 Số 2 - Trang 327-337
Iván Koulakov, Irina Medved, I. Amanatashvili, V. Meskhia
Abstract. In the paper, we discuss the problem of continental collision and related volcanism in the Caucasus and surrounding areas based on the analysis of the upper mantle seismic structure in a recently derived model by Koulakov (2011). This model, which includes P and S-velocity anomalies down to 1000 km depth, was obtained from tomographic inversion of worldwide travel time data from ...... hiện toàn bộ
Extreme extension across Seram and Ambon, eastern Indonesia: evidence for Banda slab rollbackSolid Earth - Tập 4 Số 2 - Trang 277-314
Jonathan M. Pownall, Robert Hall, Ian M. Watkinson
Abstract. The island of Seram, which lies in the northern part of the 180°-curved Banda Arc, has previously been interpreted as a fold-and-thrust belt formed during arc-continent collision, which incorporates ophiolites intruded by granites thought to have been produced by anatexis within a metamorphic sole. However, new geological mapping and a re-examination of the field relations cause ...... hiện toàn bộ
A new theoretical interpretation of Archie's saturation exponentSolid Earth - Tập 8 Số 4 - Trang 805-816
Paul Glover
Abstract. This paper describes the extension of the concepts of connectedness and conservation of connectedness that underlie the generalized Archie's law for n phases to the interpretation of the saturation exponent. It is shown that the saturation exponent as defined originally by Archie arises naturally from the generalized Archie's law. In the generalized Archie's law the saturation ex...... hiện toàn bộ
Soil erosion evolution and spatial correlation analysis in a typical karst geomorphology using RUSLE with GISSolid Earth - Tập 8 Số 4 - Trang 721-736
Chaoliu Zeng, Shijie Wang, Xiaoyong Bai, Yangbing Li, Yichao Tian, Yue Li, Longlong Wu, Guangjie Luo
Abstract. Although some scholars have studied soil erosion in karst landforms, analyses of the spatial and temporal evolution of soil erosion and correlation analyses with spatial elements have been insufficient. The lack of research has led to an inaccurate assessment of environmental effects, especially in the mountainous area of Wuling in China. Soil erosion and rocky desertification in...... hiện toàn bộ
