Published in 2017 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"

DOI: 10.1002/2016jf004153

Abstract: In the arid region of northern Chile the environmental conditions are favorable for measuring tectonic and climatic influences on catchment denudation rates in the absence of vegetation. Previous studies of denudation rates from cosmogenic 10Be… read more here.

Published in 2018 at "Journal of Geophysical Research"

DOI: 10.1002/2017jb014684

Abstract: Extension within the southern Mariana margin occurs both normal to and parallel to the trench. Trench-normal extension takes place along focused and broad backarc spreading axes forming crust that is passively accreted to the rigid… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Tectonics"

DOI: 10.1002/2017tc004635

Abstract: This study uses high quality, three-dimensional [3-D] seismic data to investigate the occurrence of strike-slip faults in the Swaen Graben, SW Barents Sea. The Swaen Graben is divided into two principal sub-basins:- SSB1 and SSB2.… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Swiss Journal of Geosciences"

DOI: 10.1007/s00015-017-0262-7

Abstract: Linking earthquakes of moderate size to known tectonic sources is a challenge for seismic hazard studies in northwestern Europe because of overall low strain rates. Here we present a combined study of macroseismic information, tectonic… read more here.
