Rocks exposed west of the Coast Plutonic Complex in southern southeast Alaska form an imbricate thrust belt that overprints the tectonic boundary between two of the largest allochthonous crustal fragments in the North American Cordillera, the Insular and Intermontane composite terranes. In the Alexander terrane (Insular composite terrane), lower Paleozoic metavolcanic and metasedimentary rocks ...

This study focused on analyzing the petroleum system of Bannu Basin, which is foreland basin Himalayan fold and thrust belts in Pakistan. The objectives this were achieved by dividing area into three zones, namely, Southwestern zone, Southeastern Northeastern zone. regional 2D seismic lines well log data, including bore hole temperature (BHT) petrophysical geochemical integrated. interpretation...

Soil loss is one of the most important causes land degradation. It an inevitable environmental and socio-economic problem that exists in many physiographic regions world, which, besides other impacts, has a direct bearing on agricultural productivity. A reliable estimate soil critical for designing implementing any mitigation measures. We applied widely used Revised Universal Loss Equation (RUS...

We examine rockfall susceptibility of folded strata in the Sevier fold-thrust belt exposed in American Fork Canyon in north-central Utah. Large-scale geologic mapping, talus production data, rock-mass-quality measurements, and historical rockfall data indicate that rockfall susceptibility is correlated with limb dip and curvature of the folded, cliff-forming Mississippian limestones. On fold li...
