Lithospheric folding is an important mode of basin formation in compressional intraplate
settings. Basins formed by lithospheric folding are characterized by distinct features in …

To date, research on neotectonics and related continental topography development has
mostly focused on active plate boundaries characterized by generally high deformation …

The topographic evolution of the “passive” margins of the North Atlantic during the last 65
Myr is the subject of extensive debate due to inherent limitations of the geological …

The Elbe Fault System (EFS) is a WNW-striking zone extending from the southeastern North

Sedimentary basins host, among others, most of our energy and fresh-water resources: they
can be regarded as large geo-reactors in which many physical and chemical processes …

There is growing evidence that climate-induced melting of large ice sheets has been able to

In-situ stresses have significant impact, either positive or negative, on the short and long
term behaviour of fractured reservoirs. The knowledge of the stress conditions are therefore …

The origin of anomalous tectonic subsidence (ATS) of large intracontinental basins long
after their most recent phase of extension and last thermal perturbation is the subject of a …
