This work documents for the first time prehistoric, but morphologically pristine, Emad Deh rock avalanche of Zagros Mountains. The ca. 420 Mm 3 was initiated as a rockslide on dip slope affecting weak unit marls with interbedded limestones overlain by thick and competent limestone formation. is located northern limb growing Gavbast Anticline at edge inflating Dome, related to buried salt diapir...

Kinematic constraints on the Cenozoic deformation along northwestern edge of Tibetan Plateau remain limited. Combining surface geological data and seismic profiles, we document structural geometry kinematics large-scale east-west striking Hotan anticline, foothills Western Kunlun Range. Four new balanced cross-sections are constructed, temporal evolution is deciphered from exceptionally well-im...

Industrial production activities associated with salt mining, hydraulic fracturing, or geothermal exploitation can induce pore pressure and stress field changes, thus inducing seismic activity. Most of the events are not disastrous due to limited energy radiated. Here we report a Mw 5.8 damaging event that occurred in Changning, China on June 17, 2019, probably largest induced by industrial eve...

The aim of this study was to propose the workflow for integrated analysis 3D geostress and 1D geomechanics an exploration in a new gas field. This will allow problems associated with inaccuracy geomechanical be overcome region obvious anticline/syncline structures. well field mainly included prediction pore pressure calculation mud weight window safe drilling. In general, both method window, nu...

A combination of digital image processing and field works provides a vision into differentiating between the rock units, in addition to contacts among them. Landsat 9 was used plot detailed geological map study area, located Al-Teeb city at Bajalia anticline, Missan Governorate, Southeast Iraq. The included geometric correction, enhancement, classification, use false-color composite technology ...

In south China the Lushan massif forms a Jurassic through Early Triassic [e.g., Mattauer et al., 1985, topographic high of the South China Block south of the 1991; Okay et al., 1993; Hacker et al., 1996; Gilder et al., Qinling-Dabie belt. The Lushan massif consists of two main 1999]. The noah directed continental subduction of south lithotectonic units separated by a major tectonic ontact: a Ch...

Abstract Late Cenozoic was a period of large-scale extension in the Aegean. The is mainly recorded metamorphic core complexes with little data from sedimentary sequences. exception Thrace Basin northern Aegean, which has continuous record Middle Eocene to Oligocene marine sedimentation. In Basin, Oligocene–Early Miocene characterized by north-northwest (N25°W) shortening leading termination sed...
