Increased power by harmonizing structural MRI site differences with the ComBat batch adjustment method in ENIGMA A full list of authors and affiliations appears at the end of the article. Abstract A common limitation of neuroimaging studies is their small sample sizes. To overcome this hurdle, the Enhancing Neuro Imaging Genetics through Meta-Analysis (ENIGMA) Consortium combines neuroimaging data from many institutions worldwide. However, this introduces heterogeneity due to different scanning devices and sequences. ENIGMA projects commonly address this heterogeneity with random-effects meta-analysis or mixed-effects mega-analysis. Here we tested whether the batch adjustment method, ComBat, can further reduce site-related heterogeneity and thus increase statistical power. We conducted random-effects meta-analyses, mixed-effects mega-analyses and ComBat mega-analyses to compare cortical thickness, surface area and subcortical volumes between 2897 individuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia and 3141 healthy controls from 33 sites. Specifically, we compared the imaging data between individuals with schizophrenia and healthy controls, covarying for age and sex. -

Post-Collisional Formation of the Alpine Foreland Rifts
Annales Societatis Geologorum Poloniae (1991) vol. 61:37 - 59 PL ISSN 0208-9068 POST-COLLISIONAL FORMATION OF THE ALPINE FORELAND RIFTS E. Craig Jowett Department of Earth Sciences, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Ontario Canada N2L 3G1 Jowett, E. C., 1991. Post-collisional formation of the Alpine foreland rifts. Ann. Soc. Geol. Polon., 6 1 :37-59. Abstract: A series of Cenozoic rift zones with bimodal volcanic rocks form a discontinuous arc parallel to the Alpine mountain chain in the foreland region of Europe from France to Czechos lovakia. The characteristics of these continental rifts include: crustal thinning to 70-90% of the regional thickness, in cases with corresponding lithospheric thinning; alkali basalt or bimodal igneous suites; normal block faulting; high heat flow and hydrothermal activity; regional uplift; and immature continental to marine sedimentary rocks in hydrologically closed basins. Preceding the rifting was the complex Alpine continental collision orogeny which is characterized by: crustal shortening; thrusting and folding; limited calc-alkaline igneous activity; high pressure metamorphism; and marine flysch and continental molasse deposits in the foreland region. Evidence for the direction of subduction in the central area is inconclusive, although northerly subduction likely occurred in the eastern and western Tethys. The rift events distinctly post-date the thrusthing and shortening periods of the orogeny, making “impactogen” models of formation untenable. However, the succession of tectonic and igneous events, the geophysical characteristics, and the timing and location of these rifts are very similar to those of the Late Cenozoic Basin and Range province in the western USA and the Early Permian Rotliegendes troughs in Central Europe. -

Shear Zone-Related Folds
Journal of Structural Geology 27 (2005) 1229–1251 www.elsevier.com/locate/jsg Shear zone-related folds Jordi Carreras, Elena Druguet*, Albert Griera Departament de Geologia, Universitat Auto`noma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, Spain Received 18 April 2003; received in revised form 27 February 2004; accepted 14 June 2004 Available online 30 November 2004 Abstract Folds in ductile shear zones are common structures that have a variety of origins. These can be pre-existing folds that become modified or folds developed during the shearing event. Among the syn-shearing folds, a second subdivision is based on the relative age of the folded surface, which can be pre-existing or newly formed during the shearing event. In each of the three categories final fold geometry and orientation show complex relationships with the kinematic frame. The final fold geometry depends on the vorticity within the shear zone, the rheology and the initial orientation of the folded surface relative to the kinematic framework. It follows that folds are complex structures, difficult to use as kinematic indicators. However, in shear zones where undeformed wall rocks with pre-shear structures are accessible and where kinematics can be well established, folds can provide a valuable natural means to understand the initiation and evolution of structures under non-coaxial regimes. We point to the need of discriminating among different plausible categories, based on the nature of the folded surface and on the inherent structural features of each category. q 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Stress and Fluid Control on De Collement Within Competent Limestone
Journal of Structural Geology 22 (2000) 349±371 www.elsevier.nl/locate/jstrugeo Stress and ¯uid control on de collement within competent limestone Antonio Teixell a,*, David W. Durney b, Maria-Luisa Arboleya a aDepartament de Geologia, Universitat AutoÁnoma de Barcelona, 08193 Bellaterra, Spain bDepartment of Earth and Planetary Sciences, Macquarie University, Sydney, NSW 2109, Australia Received 5 October 1998; accepted 23 September 1999 Abstract The Larra thrust of the Pyrenees is a bedding-parallel de collement located within a competent limestone unit. It forms the ¯oor of a thrust system of hectometric-scale imbrications developed beneath a synorogenic basin. The fault rock at the de collement is a dense stack of mainly bedding-parallel calcite veins with variable internal deformation by twinning and recrystallization. Veins developed as extension fractures parallel to a horizontal maximum compressive stress, cemented by cavity-type crystals. Conditions during vein formation are interpreted in terms of a compressional model where crack-arrays develop at applied stresses approaching the shear strength of the rock and at ¯uid pressures equal to or less than the overburden pressure. The cracks developed in response to high dierential stress, which was channelled in the strong limestone, and high ¯uid pressure in or below the thrust plane. Ductile deformation, although conspicuous, cannot account for the kilometric displacement of the thrust, which was mostly accommodated by slip on water sills constituted by open cracks. A model of cyclic dierential brittle contraction, stress reorientation, slip and ductile relaxation at a rheological step in the limestone is proposed as a mechanism for episodic de collement movement.
