Deep-focus earthquakes in the region of the Lipari Islands are studied from the point of view of high-frequency S-wave attenuation. The results are interpreted on the basis of plate-tectonics theory, and allow the definition of a three-dimensional model of the deep structure of this area. ...

Subsequent Paleoproterozoic subduction magmatism, continental collision, and post-orogenic rifting between the North China craton and southern margin ...

Fluorine may be one of the important factors to control the formation of porphyry Mo deposits, but how it affects mineralization is still poorly understood. The Chalukou deposit is a large-scale porphyry Mo deposit in China. Previous studies focused on geology (Liu et al., 2015, Li et al....

The paper places the crustal structure of the Indian shield in the context of global processes and evolution of the Earth. It summarizes internal structure of the Earth from core to crust and addresses numerous geological processes, like evolution of continental crust, operation of plate tectonics,...
seismotectonicsSUMMARY A key issue in our understanding of the earthquake cycle and seismic hazard is the behaviour of an active fault during the interseismic phase. Locked and creeping faults represent two end-members of mechanical behaviours that are given two extreme rupturing hazard levels, that ...
