Abstract Despite the surface geology of Kuwait appears to be scarce and most country is covered with Quaternary deposits except for a few outcrops Oligo-Miocene Pleistocene age, subsurface quite unique astonishing. The discovery hydrocarbon in at beginning last century helped geologists better understand structural especially by utilizing geophysical methods such as potential field (e.g., gravi...

Aims and Backgrounds: Almost no area in the world can be found that has not been affected by tectonic processes. The morpho-tectonic indices of the basin are used to investigate the active tectonics. Morphometry can be defined as the quantitative measurement of the shape of the Earth's landscape that using these quantitative measurements can identify areas with active tectonics. The purpose o...

the present study carried out to identify neo tectonic activity of the gorgan river basin in golestan province, in north of eastern alborz range is investigated by four geomorphic indices including the stream– gradient index (sl), drainage basin asymmetry (af), reveres symmetry of topography (t) and mountain front sinuosity (smf). result from the analysis is accumulated and expressed as an in...

International fi eld experiences offer exceptional opportunities for effective student learning in the geosciences. Over the 10 yr period between 1998 and 2008, more than 40 undergraduate students from 14 institutions participated in fi eld research investigating active tectonics on the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica. Three different project models were used: (1) a month-long summer research proj...

To better understand the evolution and present-day tectonics of the Carpathian-Pannonian Region (CPR), we characterize the upper mantle anisotropic structure. We present a shear wave splitting analysis from teleseismic events recorded at the Carpathian Basin Project and permanent stations located in the CPR. The results show a large-scale uniform NW-SE fast orientation under the entire CPR. Com...

Acquisition of nearly complete coverage of Thematic Mapper data for the central Andes between about 15’s to 34’s has stimulated a comprehensive and unprecedented study of the interaction of tectonics and climate in a young and actively developing major continental mountain belt. The paper briefly reviews the current state of our synoptic mapping of key physiographic, tectonic and climatic indic...

The Cretaceous breakup of Gondwana strongly modified the global distribution of shallow tropical seas reshaping the geographic configuration of marine basins. However, the links between tropical reef availability, plate tectonic processes and marine biodiversity distribution patterns are still unknown. Here, we show that a spatial diversification model constrained by absolute plate motions for ...
