(1881)proposed the idea ofconvection currentswithin the Earth's interior. In addition, severe reservations with respect to the contraction theory arose because of the recognition of the importance ofisostasy(Watts, 2001). Notable here were theoretical studies by Archdeacon JH Pratt in India (Pratt,...
Greenough also spent large geological map of many India, years in the first compiling a of its kind, which he exhibited to members of the British Association at Liverpool, worth recalling that he in 1854. Incidentally, was present at the it is first meeting of the Association, at York in ...
A new map of the Kunene Complex, based on our interpretation of processed remote sensing data and ground-truthing. The spatial distribution of the Karoo and Damara supergroups in Namibia (included here in the post-KC capping units) is from the Geological Survey of Namibia 1:250, 000 map. ...
A massive deepwater natural gas discovery off the eastern coast of India is in itself impressive. But the impact it could have as India strives to expand p... KATHY SHIRLEY - 《Explorer》 被引量: 4发表: 2003年 Relative Chronology in High-Grade Crystalline Terrain of the Eastern Ghats, Ind...
The map of the nearby Erdaogou region displays strong fold and thrust-shortening of the Eocene redbeds, evidence of significant crustal shortening after the India--Asia collision began. In the Xidatan--Kunlun Pass area, blocks of contrasting Permo--Triassic rocks are separated by east-trending ...
This study examines the development trajectory and current trends of three-dimensional (3D) geological modelling. In recent years, due to the rising global energy demand and the increasing frequency of regional geological disasters, significant progress has been made in this field. The purpose of thi...
Thegeological structurecontrols the land and sea distribution pattern, coast shape, and evolution. Since the Cenozoic, the tectonic pattern of the Chinese mainland reflects the interaction between the Pacific–Philippines, India, and theEurasian plate, which forms the overall shape of the Chinese coast...
Geophysical exploration is based on the use of differences in a number of physical properties between bodies of useful minerals and the enclosing rock. Differences in elasticity, magnetism, electrical conductivity, density, and radioactivity are tested. Airplanes, helicopters, and artificial satellites are...
Efforts to protect and wisely use groundwater and industrial mineral resources in southern Manitoba have required the development of a new generation of geological map products. Geological maps are being digitized and reconciled with each other, while legends are being made more accessible to a broad...
The study area belongs to Lesser Himalaya, Uttarakhand, India. Like any mountainous area, the geodynamic nature of Himalayan regions makes the terrains prone to slopes failure. Fig. 1a and b presents the detailed localition report of the investigated slopes on the geological map of the study are...
