Climate change and human activity can both exert a role in the river discharge sediment load deltas when sea level remains relatively stable. The Pearl River Delta constitutes metropolitan region of Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macau Greater Bay Area, its evolution past future impacts sustainable development this region. In manuscript, core situated northern South China Sea, adjacent to Qiao Island Zhuh...

The Ramsay-Graham heterogeneous simple shear zone model revolutionized our understanding of finite strain variation in orogenic belts. Many deeply exhumed (>20 km depths) zones continental crust are a consequence sub-simple accumulation during contraction and displacement at high temperature. Here we explore the micro-scale record this process using syn-kinematic monazite two >20,000 km2 terran...

The origin of the Aburrá Valley (AV) is proposed as a set coalescent tectonic subbasins located along northern portion Central Cordillera Colombia, Northern Andes Colombia. Itagüí, Medellín, Bello, and Barbosa have developed between Romeral Shear Zone (RSZ) Antioqueño Batholith starting in Late Cenozoic. aim this study to contribute understanding AV neotectonic framework using anisotropy magnet...

Robat-e Zengejeh rocks affected by a variety of events began from Precambrian. This research studied preserved effects of the events. Regional metamorphism is the oldest event in this rocks include schist, amphibolite and orthogneiss, that reached up to amphibolite facies. After this regional metamorphism, it seems that mesocratic (624±5Ma) and hololeucocratic granitoides intruded respectively....

Abstract Crary Ice Rise formed after the Ross Shelf re-grounded ~1 kyr BP. We present new ice-penetrating radar data from two systems operating at center frequencies of 7 and 750 MHz that confirm ice rise is composed a former shelf buried by subsequent accumulation. Stacks englacial diffraction hyperbolas are almost everywhere across central extend up to ~350 m above bed. In many cases, bed ref...

Crustal architecture at slow-spreading oceanic ridges results from complex interactions between magmatism, hydrothermalism, and tectonics. IODP Hole U1473A was drilled during Expeditions 360 362T the summit of Atlantis Bank, a gabbroic massif exhumed Southwest Indian Ridge. In this study, we identify quantify plastic deformation processes in lithologies active slip systems plagioclase 115 micro...
