The black box encloses the Afar depression represented in picture (b). (b) Geological map of the Afar depression modified from Varet (1978), Kidane et al. (2003), and Stab et al. (2016). Lava samples are from the 2020 campaign (white circles) and the Afar repository of the ...
For example, what drives volcanic eruptions over human and geological timescales, what controls the location of active magmatic systems and their unrest and what are the potential threats from future volcanic activity? The raised awareness of volcanic hazards is driving a shift from crisis response ...
7 Geological cross-section in the western Mecsek (SW of the village Abaliget) showing fault-related local thickening of the littoral lacustrine deposits. For the location of the cross-section please see Fig. 1b. Legend: hh_mT2, vgT2, vg-lT2, lT2, r-lT2, MT2 Triassic formations, ...
The Ethio-Kenyan Rift (EKR) has many things in common with regard to geological and hydrogeological setting. One of the remarkable similarly is the existence of a series of lakes filling volcano-tectonic depressions separated by volcanic hills in the floor of the rift. The major input to the ...
Geological setting The Santa Lucia nappe is located in the northern part of Corsica (France), in the Western Mediterranean area (Fig. 1). The island originally represented the south-western continuation of the Western Alps and of its European foreland (e.g. Molli, 2008), prior to counter-cl...
In order to answer the question whether or not the surface heat flow picture in the Baikal rift reveals a signal from a large mantle thermal anomaly, a detailed study of the surface heat flow variability and its significance is needed. In this paper, we present the results of a detailed ...
In this paper, we present a picture of contemporary deformation at the OVC and within the surrounding rift in detail, using existing and new GPS campaign and continuous GPS (cGPS) data collected between 1998 and 2011. The results show a highly heterogeneous deformation and strain rate field (...
