Fossil overpressures compartments? A case study from the Eifel area and some general aspects
(11. Symposium "Tektonik, Struktur- und Kristallingeologie", 2006-03)Fluid overpressures are well known from hydrocarbon exploration in many sedimentary basins. They can reach almost lithostatic values, and may cause the fracturing of rock. Fracturing allows the discharge of fluid overpressure, ... -
Fracturing and vein formation in the middle crust - a record of co-seismic loading and post-seismic stress relaxation
(11. Symposium "Tektonik, Struktur- und Kristallingeologie", 2006-03)Metamorphic rocks approaching the crustal scale brittle-ductile transition (BDT) during exhumation are expected to become increasingly affected by short term stress fluctuations related to seismic activity in the overlying ...
