Strike-Slip faults
TL;DR: The importance of strike-slip faulting was recognized near the turn of the century, mainly from investigations of surficial offsets associated with major earthquakes in New Zealand, Japan, and California.
Book
Primary Succession and Ecosystem Rehabilitation
TL;DR: This paper provided the first comprehensive summary of how plant, animal and microbial communities develop under the harsh conditions following such dramatic disturbances, and examined the basic principles that determine ecosystem development and applied the general rules to the urgent practical need for promoting the reclamation of damaged lands.

A. M. C. Şengör,Okan Tüysüz,Caner İmren,Mehmet Sakınç,Haluk Eyidoğan,Naci Görür,Xavier Le Pichon,Claude Rangin +7 more
TL;DR: The North Anatolian Fault (NAF) as discussed by the authors is a 1200 km-long dextral strike-slip fault zone that formed by progressive strain localization in a generally westerly widening right-lateral keirogen in northern Turkey mostly along an interface juxtaposing subduction-accretion material to its south and older and stiffer continental basements to its north.
Journal ArticleDOI
A model for the evolution of strontium and lead isotopes in a dynamic Earth
TL;DR: In this article, a steady-state model for the evolution of the earth's crust and upper mantle has been proposed, where the oceans, continents, and mantle have been nearly constant for at least the last 2.5 b.y.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pangaean climates: Megamonsoons of the megacontinent
John E. Kutzbach,R. G. Gallimore +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-resolution atmospheric general circulation model that is coupled to a static mixed layer ocean of constant depth is explored using a highly idealized geographic representation of the megacontinent of Pangaea, corresponding to the period 250-200 m.y.
