Crustal Structure, Deformational History, and Tectonic Origin of the Bahamas Carbonate Platform Open
The 2–10‐km‐thick, mainly carbonate cap of the 14,000 km 2 Bahamas carbonate platform (BCP) has impeded imaging of its underlying crustal structure. The deeper structure of the BCP records both its Mesozoic rift and hotspot history and its…

Along-Strike Rapid Structural and Geomorphic Transition From Transpression to Strike-Slip to Transtension Related to Active Microplate Rotation, Papua New Guinea Open
The area of southeastern Papua New Guinea includes three active microplates – the Trobriand, Woodlark, and Solomon Sea plates – that are being deformed by regional convergence between the much larger Pacific and Australian Plates. The land…

AI-assisted structural interpretation of complex faulting and salt pillows on the shelf and slope of the Camamu basin, northeastern Brazil Open
As the overall Central Atlantic segment opened in an east-west direction during the early Cretaceous, the Camamu basin in northeastern Brazil experienced a more oblique northwest-to-southeast opening that led to its more complex rifting hi…

Distinguishing between Shock-darkening and Space-weathering Trends in Ordinary Chondrite Reflectance Spectra Open
Space-weathering as well as shock effects can darken meteorite and asteroid reflectance spectra. We present a detailed comparative study on shock-darkening and space-weathering using different lithologies of the Chelyabinsk LL5 chondrite. …
