1. 1. Terrain Modelling with GIS for Tectonic Geomorphology : Numerical Methods and Applications

   Författare :Gyözö Jordan; Ulf Qvarfort; Tsehaie Woldai; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; digital elevation model; digital terrain modelling; GIS; morphometry; tectonic geomorphology; Miljöteknik; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Analysis of digital elevation models (DEMs) by means of geomorphometry provides means of recognising fractures and characterising the morphotectonics of an area in a quantitative way. The objective of the thesis is to develop numerical methods and a consistent GIS methodology for tectonic geomorphology and apply it to test sites. LÄS MER

3. 2. The tectonic evolution of the western part of the Svecofennian orogen, central Sweden : Insight from U/Pb and 40Ar/39Ar geochronology at Forsmark

   Författare :Tobias Hermansson; Berggrundsgeologi; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; physical geography; Geology; Svecofennian orogen; Tectonic models; Tectonic cycles; Uplift; Cooling; Ductile deformation; Geochronology; U Pb; 40Ar 39Ar; Geologi; fysisk geografi; Petrology; mineralogy; geochemistry; Petrologi; mineralogi; geokemi;

   Sammanfattning : The Forsmark area, in the western part of the Svecofennian orogen, central Sweden, is situated between two major Palaeoproterozoic tectonic domains that show contrasting histories with respect to timing of igneous activity, ductile deformation and metamorphism. At Forsmark, WNW to NW trending, ductile deformation belts anastomose around tectonic lenses with an inferred lower degree of ductile strain. LÄS MER

4. 3. The Mesoproterozoic Hallandian event - a region-scale orogenic event in the Fennoscandian Shield

   Författare :Linus Brander; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fennoscandian Shield; Hallandian orogeny; Eastern Segment; Protogine Zone; U-Pb geochronology; zircon; baddeleyite; Nd-isotopes; Hf-isotopes; tectonic model;

   Sammanfattning : The Sveconorwegian Province occupies the southwestern part of the Fennoscandian Shield. The easternmost tectonic unit of the Province is the 1710-1660 Ma parautochthonous Eastern Segment, which bears the imprint of at least two metamorphic events; the 1460-1380 Ma Hallandian and the 1150-970 Ma Sveconorwegian.

5. 4. 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

7. 5. The tectonic evolution of northwest Svalbard

   Författare :Carl Henrik Pettersson; Victoria Pease; Robert Strachan; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Svalbard; Rodinia; Laurentia; Zircon; Provenance; Migmatites; Clockwise P-T; Solid earth geology and petrology; Berggrundsgeologi och petrologi; Geology; geologi;

   Sammanfattning : Svalbard represents the uplifted and exhumed northwest corner of the Barents Sea Shelf. Pre-Carboniferous rocks of Svalbard are divided into the Eastern, Northwestern and Southwestern Terranes, were amalgamated during the Caledonian Orogen and are separated by north-south-trending strike-slip faults.
