PhD thesis on the active tectonics of Northeast Altai in central Asia focusing on structural geology, paleostress analysis, seismics and radon gas geochemistry.
NSF funded program which tries to understand the complex interplay of processes that govern the evolution of continental margins by a multidisciplinary approach, including seismicity and subduction processes.
Database containing information on the contemporary tectonic stress state (e.g. orientation and magnitude) in the Earth's crust. Users can request customized stress maps for selected regions.
Resources for students in geology and geophysics, including lectures notes, slide show and virtual field trips. Topics include structural geology, tectonics, and geology of granite.
Offering Paleomagnetic core orientation and paleomagnetic services including paleomagnetic fracture orientation, fracture studies in fractured reservoirs, paleomagnetic orientation of in-situ stress and more.
This is the origin and mechanics of the forces responsible for tectonic plate movements.
To measure crustal deformation in a tectonically active area, improve estimates of the earthquake hazard in southern California, and to serve as a testing ground for new geophysical instrumentation.
Tectonics contains original scientific contributions in analytical, synthetic, and integrative tectonics. Papers are restricted to the structure and evolution of the terrestrial lithosphere with dominant emphasis on the continents.
Wonderful animations of Plate Tectonics movement. Including gif, avi and mov formats.
Plate tectonics. Types of plate boundaries. Sources of plate motion.
