In this study, the ion concentrations (K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl?, SO42?, Br?, NO3?, and B3+) boron isotope compositions (?11B) of 34 halite brines samples from Neoproterozoic Salt Range Formation, Punjab, Pakistan were studied. Relation among B3+ vs. ?11B B3+, vs K+ observed, they indicated that these elements originate multiple sources end members identified as seawater, B desorption clays, met...

The Kalabagh strike–slip fault, which is characterized by right-lateral movement, part of the northwestern Himalayan foreland fold and thrust belt in Pakistan. This structure marks western eastern terminations Salt Range Surghar Ranges, respectively. No significant (>M6) earthquakes have been reported along Fault recent decades. Here, we take advantage space-borne Sentinel-1A SAR interfe...

[1] In the Shiquanhe area of far-western Tibet, midCretaceous strata lie unconformable on ophiolitic melange and Jurassic flysch associated with the Bangong-Nujiang suture zone. On the basis of our mapping and geochronologic studies, we suggest that these Cretaceous strata were shortened by >57% over a north south distance of 50 km during Late Cretaceousearly Tertiary time. The Late Cretaceous ...

Introduction Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a major public health problem. The "gold standard" in the surgical treatment of this condition is the laparoscopic technique called Nissen fundoplication. Aim This paper presents a safer alternative of the laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication, with special focus on the most difficult moment of the intervention, the creation of a retroesophage...

[1] Orogenic structure appears to be partially controlled by the addition to and removal of material from the mountain belt by tectonic accretion and geomorphic erosion, respectively. We developed a coupled erosion-deformation model for orogenic wedges that are in erosional steady state and deform at their Coulomb failure limit. Erosional steady state is reached when all material introduced int...

This paper analyses Late Cenozoic uplift in the Bolivian Andes, using the morphology of well preserved regional paleosurfaces in the Eastern Cordillera that define three axially draining braided river catchments that formed between ∼12 and ∼9 Ma. Rock uplift since the formation of the paleodrainage systems, which has been quantified using four different methods, is 1705±695 m, with a mean erosi...

To investigate the architecture of transpressional deformation and its long-term relationship to plate motion in southern California, we have studied the deformation pattern and structural geometry of orogeny within the San Andreas fault system. The San Bernardino Mountains have formed recently at the hub of several active structures that intersect the San Andreas fault east of Los Angeles. Thi...

We present several structural transects throughout the internal part of Tunisian Tell focusing on some representative structures and domains. used also an interpreted seismic cross-section a 3-D view to highlight styles within Tellian units in Fernana-Adissa allochthon domain. The style is mainly represented by active roof-thrust duplex affecting Mesozoic-Cenozoic sequences belonging respective...
