How does tectonic #stress control fracture patterns during #hydration? McElwee et al. (US/JP) show that stress #orientation determines whether #branching or #spalling fractures form-guiding fluid flow in oceanic #lithosphere

What controls rifted margin symmetry? New #Geology models show that mechanical anisotropy alone can shift rifts from symmetric to asymmetric—no rheology changes needed. Even moderate anisotropy can reshape rift systems.

A figure from Andrew Fredericksen's presentation showing contours of shear-wave split times for much of British Columbia and Alberta. The dots are broad-band seismometer stations.
Andrew Frederiksen (U. Manitoba) gave us a very clear explanation of a better way to analyze shear-wave splitting as a way to probe the fabric (heterogeneities) of the upper mantle under continents.
The red and orange contours of large split times in British […]

Aufeis (Earth sciences 🌍)
Aufeis is a sheet-like mass of layered ice that forms from successive flows of ground or river water during freezing temperatures. This form of ice is also called overflow, icings, or the Russian term, naled. The term "Aufeis" was first used in 1859 by Alexander von […]

Flyer announcing the workshop "The deformation of the lithosphere, state of the art and directions for the future". It shows 4 photos illustrating tectonic objects at different scales, and on the right a text that explain the reason of the workshop and summarize its organization.
Reminder: #LithoDef25 workshop, in memory of Paul Tapponnier, aims at presenting state of the art and future directions about the deformation of the #lithosphere. It will take place in Paris, Febr 12 to 14, 2025. ⚒️
Registration and submission of communications now open.
