Some of its eruption centres have renewed activity after more than 500 ka. Recreating the history of the Valley of the Volcanoes activity required satellite data and remote sensing-based methods for visualizing the terrain surface. We used SRTM 30 m DEM, channels 4, 3, 2; Landsat 7, 8 and ASTER images. We verified and refined the obtained data during field works using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) to create of 3D models of selected geoforms. Satellite data allowed us to create: Red Relief Image Map, Topographic Position Index and Normalised Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) maps. In the Valley of the Volcanoes, we analysed 12 lava fields with a total area of 326.3 km<sup>2</sup> and a volume of approx. 20 km<sup>3</sup>. We determined the number of eruption centres that yielded to 41 small lava domes and 23 scoria cones. This domes are classified as monogenetic volcanoes, however five of them can be considered polygenetic e.g. Puca Mauras. We used NDVI to develop chronology map of lavas. This allowed us to extract same-age eruption centres and associated volcanoes that represent the same eruptive time phase connected by fault lines: first generation (0.5–0.27 Ma) NW-SE and NE-SW, second (Pleistocene/Holocene) NNW-SSE and third (Holocene-Historical) again NW-SE and NE-SW. We carried out the reconstruction of the central part of the Valley of the Volcanoes because only there repeated phases of volcanic activity can be inferred with remote sensing and geological mapping. The results of this study led us to indicate that this area should be observed since it is very likely that future eruptions will occur.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45423973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measuring shear-wave splitting is popular and effective to detect seismic anisotropy, but it has poor depth resolution. This problem has been overcome by conducting 3-D anisotropic tomography, which has high-resolution in both lateral and vertical directions. Both P and S wave anisotropies are revealed in the crust, which are caused by alignment or preferred orientation of crustal minerals and stress-induced microcracks related to active faults. Trench-normal fast-velocity directions (FVDs) of azimuthal anisotropy are revealed in the back-arc mantle wedge, reflecting subduction-driven convection there. Trench-parallel FVDs appear in the forearc mantle wedge under the land area, which may reflect deformation that results in B-type olivine fabric. The forearc mantle wedge offshore may lack anisotropy, suggesting that it is stagnant and decoupled from the subducting slab and does not participate in the viscous flow, in sharp contrast with the rest of the mantle wedge. The most significant findings of the body-wave anisotropic tomography are its constraints on the slab anisotropy. The subducting Pacific slab exhibits mainly trench-parallel FVDs, which reflect shape-preferred orientation of crystals and cracks related to normal faults produced in the outer-rise area before the plate subduction, overprinting the fossil anisotropy that the Pacific plate gained when it was produced at the mid-ocean ridge. Trench-parallel intraslab fast velocity planes of anisotropy intersect the slab upper surface at high angles (∼45–90°), reflecting aligned hydrated faults in the slab. Ruptures of the hydrated faults in the upper part of the slab may cause large intraslab earthquakes (M ≥7.0) that take place frequently beneath the forearc area. Trench-normal FVDs also appear in the subslab mantle, which may reflect asthenospheric shear deformation associated with the overlying slab subduction.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49044288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, the morphology of the Iberian plate and its partitioning into several continental blocks has been proposed as a solution towards reconciling discrepancies between previously published reconstructions that treat Iberia as a single, rigid, tectonic plate. Herein, the first deformable plate tectonic modeling study of the Pyrenean realm is presented using previously published and newly presented reconstructions of Iberia. Special emphasis is given to the kinematics of the Ebro Block, a continental block situated between the Pyrenees and Iberian Ranges, whose kinematics are considered to play a key role in the extensional deformation experienced within the Pyrenean realm. Temporal variations in strain rate and crustal thickness calculated by deformable plate models provide insights regarding the pre-orogenic template of the Pyrenees and the variability in regional stress directions along the Iberia-Eurasia plate boundary from the Triassic to Cenomanian. Models that propose transtensional rift phases within the Pyrenean realm induced by the Landes High and Ebro Block kinematics since the Triassic are successful in deriving crustal thicknesses indicative of a pre-orogenic hyperextended rifted margin within the Pyrenean realm. The results of this study demonstrate the importance of continental block kinematics during rift-related deformation and their impact on the evolution and partitioning of rift domains. Furthermore, this study also highlights potential avenues to consider for improving future plate kinematic models of Iberia, and regions elsewhere.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41729922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The northern Cascadia backarc encompasses a &gt; 400 km wide region of the Southern Canadian Cordillera. Geophysical observations, including seismic tomography and surface heat flow, show that the backarc is characterized by a hot, thin lithosphere (60–70 km). The eastern limit of the backarc approximately underlies the Rocky Mountain Trench, where there is an abrupt eastward increase in lithosphere thickness to the ∼250 km thick North American (Laurentian) Craton. Seismic tomography studies show that the transition in lithosphere thickness occurs over a horizontal distance of 50–100 km, resulting in a subvertical to west-dipping lithosphere step, with a dip angle of 75–90°. Using numerical models, we show that such a structure can be readily destabilised by internal buoyancy forces, edge-driven convection, and shearing by regional mantle flow. To maintain a subvertical step for &gt; 50 Myr, the lowermost craton mantle lithosphere must be both dry and moderately chemically depleted. The observed westward dip may reflect partial lateral extrusion of the lowermost craton lithosphere, as well as shearing from west-directed mantle flow associated with the Cascadia subduction zone. The models also show that the backarc mantle must be relatively weak, such that vigorous convection maintains the hot, thin lithosphere. This also provides a mechanism to explain the observed lateral seismic gradient between the low-velocity backarc mantle and high-velocity craton. Our models demonstrate that the eastern limit of the Cascadia backarc is a region of active mantle flow, including possible slow deformation of the craton edge.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54823,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geodynamics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41833945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Extensive geophysical surveys comprising gravity and magnetic were conducted to assess the occurrence of potential mineral sources in the uplifted crustal blocks of the Aravalli Fold belt.

The Bat optimization algorithm is applied to gravity data to estimate the target parameters (e.g., amplitude coefficient, depth, origin location, and geometric shape). The stability and efficiency of the introduced optimizing algorithm have been checked on two synthetic models represented in a spherical model and an infinitely horizontal cylinder model using two different kinds of noise.
