  1. 1. Deformation zones in models and nature

    Författare :Katarina Sofia Persson; Carl Ehlers; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Sammanfattning : Field studies encounter several complicating factors not studied in the models. Examples are oblique convergence, heterogeneous materials and thermal softening by intruding magmas. LÄS MER

  3. 2. 2D and 3D Reflection Seismic Studies over Scandinavian Deformation Zones

    Författare :Emil Lundberg; Christopher Juhlin; Alireza Malehmir; Lars Nielsen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Azimuthal binning; Crooked-line geometry; Cross-dip; Fault zone; Hard rock seismics; MTFC; Quick clay; Shear zone; UDZ; Geofysik med inriktning mot fasta jordens fysik; Geophysics with specialization in Solid Earth Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The study of deformation zones is of great geological interest since these zones can separate rocks with different characteristics. The geometry of these structures with depth is important for interpreting the geological history of an area. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Integrated analyses and interpretations of regional scale magnetotelluric and potential field data from the Precambrian crust of northern Sweden

    Författare :Roshanak Vadoodi; Thorkild Maack Rasmussen; Maxim Smirnov; Björn H. Heincke; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Exploration Geophysics; Prospekteringsgeofysik;

    Sammanfattning : The Norrbotten region in northern Sweden, as a part of the Fennoscandian (Baltic) Shield, is one of the most active mining areas in Europe. It is acknowledged that geological structures such as faults, shear zones, and associated fracture systems play a key role in providing a physical pathway connecting metal sources and the sites of mineral precipitation.

  5. 4. Pan-African and Red Sea tectonics of eastern Eritrea

    Författare :Woldai Ghebreab; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; Pan-African tectonic grain; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap; mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis proposes that the Pan-African tectonic grain in eastem Eritrea influenced theCenozoic opening of the Red Sea. Evidence is based on studies of the structures and fabrics of various phases associated with both the Pan-African orogeny and subsequent Red Sea extension. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Tectonic Evolution of the Zagros Suture-and Imbricate Zones in Iraq

    Författare :Maher T. Zainy; Maria Ask; Francisco Gomez; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Tectonic evolution; Zagros Fold-and Thrust Belt; Remote sensing; Field feological work; 3D geological modelling; Natural resources exploration; Applied Geology; Tillämpad geologi;

    Sammanfattning : Orogenic belts are expressions of tectonic activity, often host various natural resources (e.g. petroleum and minerals reserves), and influence the society and environment through hazards (e.g. LÄS MER
