The Caribbean plate is an enclosed oceanic basin whose formation and evolution are controversial. In the most commonly accepted model, mainly composed of Large Igneous Province (CLIP) buoyant characteristic this plateau resisted subduction allowed eastward migration to its present position north South America. study, we integrate a broad range geophysical geomorphological data define structural...

As an important segment of the North China Craton, Trans-North Orogen (TNCO) has experienced strong tectonic deformation and magmatic activities since Cenozoic is characterized by significant seismicity. To understand mechanism crustal seismic hazards, we determined thickness ( H ), Vp / Vs ratio κ ) anisotropy (the fast polarization direction φ splitting time τ beneath TNCO its adjacent areas ...

The Orientale impact basin is the youngest and most well-preserved of lunar multi-ring basins. generally ring structures facies are distinctly anomalous in southwestern quadrant; outer Cordillera extends significantly outward, Outer Inner Rook mountain rings more poorly developed show characteristics, Montes Formation varies widely from its characteristics elsewhere interior. Based on gravity, ...

Abstract A new gravity survey (1164 stations and 180 samples for density analysis) combined with two geological cross sections has been carried out in a sector of the Central Pyrenees order to improve characterization basement cover architecture. From North South, study area comprises southern half Axial Zone northernmost part South-Pyrenean Zone. New data were previous existing databases obtai...
