  • Understanding Mediterranean Tectonics to Recognise Earthquake-Prone Zones
    Understanding Mediterranean Tectonics to Recognise Earthquake-prone Zones Professor Enzo Mantovani UNDERSTANDING MEDITERRANEAN TECTONICS TO RECOGNISE EARTHQUAKE-PRONE ZONES Precisely predicting when earthquakes will happen is still a distant goal. However, local authorities could reduce the damage caused by such disasters if scientists could identify zones that are most likely to be affected by earthquakes. Gaining this information requires an in-depth knowledge of the ongoing tectonic situation in a given area. In the Mediterranean region, this knowledge is surrounded by considerable uncertainty, as different researchers have different hypotheses to explain tectonic processes in this area. Professor Enzo Mantovani and his team at the University of Siena, Italy, propose a new geodynamic interpretation that offers a plausible explanation for all major tectonic features observed in this area. Using their hypothesis, along with the seismic history of the region, the team has recognised a connection between the short-term development of tectonic processes and the distribution of major earthquakes. Tectonic Evolution of the and Eurasian plates. However, Mediterranean since convergence mostly produces ‘compressional’ deformations, causing Over the last 30 million years, the the Earth’s crust to become thicker and tectonic and morphological situation mountains to form, some researchers in the Mediterranean region has propose that other driving forces undergone profound change.

The outermost part of the Baltoscandian continental margin is itself suspect , in the terrane sense. since the true palaeogeographical location s of rocks now represented in the Seve and serey-seuano Nappes, while inferred, are not known.

Vertebrate microremains showed high taxonomic diversity, comprising acanthodians, chon- drichthyans, putative galeaspids, heterostracans, mongolepids, tesakoviaspids, thelodonts and possible eriptychiids. The majority of taxa have lower stratigraphic levels of occurrence compared to other Silurian palaeobiogeographical provinces, such as the European-Russian or Canadian Arctic. Vertebrate micro- remains are numerous within the samples, which may indicate warm-water low-latitude palaeobasins with rich shelf faunas. This disagrees with the recent interpretations of the territory as a northern high-latitude Siberian palaeocontinent. The palaeobiogeographical distribution of vertebrate taxa indicates an endemic palaeobiogeographical province of connected epeiric palaeoseas with external isolation during the early Silurian. In previous works separation between Tuvan and Siberian palaeobiogeographical provinces has been suggested. After careful revision of the vertebrate microfossil record of the region, we find that differences in a few vertebrate taxa do not provide not strong enough evidence to reliably distinguish these provinces.

The study area is divided into the central sub-basin and the NE sub-basin. The NE sub-basin is positioned in the former disputed area between Norway and Russia. Salt diapirism and the formation of pillows attached to the basin margin make the Nordkapp Basin one crucial example of salt tectonics in the southwestern Barents Sea. The objective of this thesis is to study the salt distribution and evolution of the salt structures in the northern part of the Nordkapp Basin. The main dataset is 2D seismic reflection lines that are used in combination with filtered gravity data, selected time-slices from a pseudo-3D cube and well data. The rift basin architecture in the Nordkapp Basin is characterized by a wide fault zone of short densely-spaced fault segments. The lateral continuity of the fault segments increases upwards from the Late Paleozoic level.

Clark Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 05.02.2018 Acknowledgements I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisors Dr. Stuart R. Clark and Prof. Dr. Hans-Peter Bunge for all the support and guidance over the last years. I am very thankful for everything you taught me as a researcher and as a person. Also, I would like to thank my parents for always helping me in everything I do. Your example of dedication, hard work and passion to learn has always been my main inspiration in work and life. This thesis would be impossible without the help of Prof. Dr. Anke Friedrich, Dr. Lorenzo Colli, Dr. Stefanie Rieger and Dr. Christoph Moder. Thank you very much for the knowledge you gave me and for your contribution and support during this project. And, of course, thanks to my beloved friends and family: to the family Schmidt for being my home in Munich and to Bernardo and Teodora for making my PhD years joyful. Summary Motion of the lithospheric plates is a reflection of the convective circulation of the Earth’s mantle. Plate divergence is attributed to the mantle upwellings, while plate convergence to the mantle’s downwellings.

[email protected] ABSTRACT The Marseille-Aubagne Basins, which extend from Marseille to Roquevaire, occupy more than fifty per cent of the Marseille-Aubagne geological map, with approximately one million people living in this area. Despite this geological importance they are still poorly known. The first synthetic view was delivered in the 1935 geological map. Studied by Bonifay, the Quaternary deposits have been included in the 1969 geological map. Nevertheless, the Oligocene formations remained unmodified until Nury, who provided a lot of very detailed stratigraphic data.

Twenty-two large industrial sources produced 14.5 Mt of CO2 in Estonia, 1.9 Mt in Latvia and 4.8 Mt in Lithuania in 2007. The two greatest Estonian power stations, using oil-shale, produced 9.4 and 2.7 Mt of CO2. The Baltic States are located within the Baltic sedimentary basin, the thickness of which varies from 100 m in NE Estonia up to 1900 m in SW Latvia and 2300 m in western Lithuania. The most prospective formation for the geological storage of CO2 is the Cambrian reservoir, with an estimated potential of 300 Mt of CO2 in 15 large structures located in Latvia.
