Surface deformation in continental interiors is typically coupled to processes at depth.
However, in the Sichuan basin, east of the Tibetan Plateau, recent seismic data detect …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are formed by enormous (ie, frequently> 106 km3) but short-
lived magmatic events that have profound effects upon global geodynamic, tectonic, and …

Presenting a coherent synthesis of lithosphere studies, this book covers a range of
geophysical methods (seismic reflection, refraction, and receiver function methods; elastic …

A 1430 km, deep crustal, seismic reflection profile of the Parnaíba basin shows an
asymmetric, structured western margin and a gently dipping eastern margin. The~ 3 km …

The fossil record provides the primary source of data for calibrating the origin of clades.
Although minimum ages of clades are given by the oldest preserved fossil, these …

台内碳酸盐岩丘滩体储层是四川盆地重要的油气储层类型, 古隆起在台内丘滩体规模成储的过程
中发挥了重要的作用, 但是目前对于其如何控制台内丘滩体储层形成与分布的认识还不够清楚 …

Cratonic basins are sites of prolonged, broadly distributed but slow subsidence of the
continental lithosphere, and are commonly filled with shallow water and terrestrial …

Regional grain size trends in fluvial successions can reveal important information regarding
the dynamics of sediment routing systems. Self‐similar solutions for down‐system grain size …

Surface wave tomography, heat flow, and crustal thickness measurements have
demonstrated that the thickness of the continental lithosphere varies by at least a factor of 2 …

Explaining the cause and support of Africa's varied topography remains a fundamental
question for our understanding of the long-term evolution of the continent. As geodynamical …
