Geothermal energy can be used to produce electricity, heat or cool buildings, and other
industrial uses. It is a clean and sustainable energy source. It has generated a lot of interest …

Analog, or physical, models have been used to investigate problems in structural geology
and tectonics for over two centuries. Together with field observations and theoretical …

Abstract The Corinth Rift, central Greece, enables analysis of early rift development as it is
young (< 5 Ma) and highly active and its full history is recorded at high resolution by …

In the context of rift basin formation, structural inheritance describes the influence of pre-
existing structures on new rift-related structures, including faults. Pre-existing structures in …

Rifting involves complex normal faulting that is controlled by extension direction, reactivation
of prerift structures, sedimentation, and dyke dynamics. The relative impact of these factors …

In volcanically and seismically active rift systems, preexisting faults may control the rise and
eruption of magma, and direct the flow of hydrothermal fluids and gas in the subsurface …

The Victoria microplate between the Eastern and Western Branches of the East African Rift
System is one of the largest continental microplates on Earth. In striking contrast to its …

The rift basins of Thailand exhibit remarkable diversity of fault displacement patterns, fault
length–displacement characteristics and mapped fault patterns during late rift, and post-rift …

Integrated geological-geophysical methods have been used to depict the geometric
characteristics and kinematic evolution of the Shunbei 5 (SB5) and adjacent Shunbei1 (SB1) …

The silicic peralkaline volcanoes of the East African Rift are some of the least studied
volcanoes on Earth. Here we bring together new constraints from fieldwork, remote sensing …
