The moon's steadfast illumination of our night sky has been a source of wonder and inspiration for millennia. Since the first ...

Dyke swarms and the tectonic style of the study area attest to a prevailing extensional regime which was probably imposed by subduction-related tectonism since the Jurassic. Compressive tectonism is ...

Valles Marineris and Claritas Fossae are usually considered to be two very different manifestations of extensional tectonism, and the Thaumasia Highlands may have formed by compressional buckling 7.

Current research projects include leading a project to produce a global Science Investigations Map of Pluto for the US Geological Survey; mapping global tectonism on Pluto and Charon, which will ...

This study shows that irregular patterns of clay diagenesis with depth can be anticipated for sequences that have undergone complicated tectonism and deformation. Combined with other geologic ...

The FIRE 1 profile crosses three tectonic regions: the Archean nucleus in the east, the Archean–Proterozoic transition zone, and the Paleoproterozoic (Svecofennian) rocks of the Savo belt and Central ...
