Abstract:
The aim of this work is the interpretation results of morphotectonic analysis of Myzotska Upland for investigation its neotectonic history and identifying regional morphotectonic differences. We used planed surface reconstruction method and stream gradient index (SL index). We recognized that Myzotska Upland consist of several blocks with differentiated neotectonic movements. Northwest and western ledges of upland have tectonic origin but northeast, northern and southern ledges have erosional origin. Northern and eastern parts have tectonic structure that more similar to Rivnenska Upland than to other territories of Myzotska Upland. Parts of Myzotska Upland have similar geomorphological structure but different tectonic history. Key words: morphotectonics, neotectonic movements, stream gradient index (SL index), faults, planed surfaces, Volynska Upland, Myzotska Upland.

Abstract:
The aim of this work is the analysis and interpretation of the results of morphotectonic analysis of the territory of the Kremenets Mountains in order to study its neotectonic history and to identify the regional morphotectonic differences. The methods of the reconstruction of the post-Sarmatic planation surface and lineament analysis were used for this analysis as well as the data received in the process of field studies on the territory where the exploration took place, in particular the study of rocks fracturing. A number of previous studies of the upland area was analysed, in particular, its tectonics and relief. It is discovered that the Kremenets Mountains are the mountains of the monolithic structure, which are under the influence of the differentiated neotectonic movements; a number of faults, that affect the relief situation in the natural area, is also discovered. The theory of the coincidence of the directions of drains valleys with the rocks fracturing is confirmed. The theories of the formation of the North-Podillia ledge, of its confirmation and denial are considered. The origin of the north-west ledge of the escarpment is tectonic and the origin of the south and east ledges is erosive. The relief-forming role of tectonic structure of the region and its expression in the modern morphodynamic processes is evaluated. Key words: the Kremenets Mountains, the Podillia Upland, morphotectonics, neotectonic movements, faults, North-Podillia ledge, planation surfaces, lineament analysis.

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper we evaluate the morphotectonics of the area around the Subansiri river in north-eastern India. Research focuses on understanding the impacts on areas experiencing active tectonic deformation. It also explains the variety of kinematics observed in the area from the Miocene to the present. The tectonics can explain some structures related to the extensional tectonics predominant in the region and the development of the minor and major morph structures driven by faults with different kinematics. We developed a morphotectonic evolutionary model for the area based on the morphotectonic analysis and geological mapping. Morphotectonic indices used to evaluate the tectonic activeness in this study are Mountain Front sinuosity Index, Valley Floor Width to Valley Height Ratio, Asymmetry Factor, Transverse Topographic Symmetry Factor, Mountain Front Steepness Index, Basin Shape Index and Stream Length Gradient Index. There are numerous lineaments present in the study area which are trending in NW-SE and NE-SW direction.

Abstract:
Eastern Fiordland is an eroded Carboniferous to Cretaceous arc assemblage juxtaposed against the Western Fiordland Gondwana continental margin along the Grebe Shear Zone. In the Manapouri region, Eastern Fiordland is composed of scattered metasedimentary and plutonic rocks of Carboniferous, Jurassic and Jurassic-Early Cretaceous age. Quantitative P-T estimates on rare paragneiss assemblages, coupled with LA-ICP-MS analyses of metamorphic overgrowths on detrital zircon grains, demonstrate metamorphism at low to middle amphibolite facies (<6 kbar, c. 600�C) at 145.0 � 2.8 Ma (all quoted errors at 2[sigma]). The Manapouri-Lake Te Anau area of Eastern Fiordland also exposes scattered fragments of the Mesozoic volcano-sedimentary Loch Burn Formation. Relict sedimentary features within this long-lived Early Jurassic to Early Cretaceous unit indicate deposition in a mostly terrestrial or shallow water environment that was fed by debris flows from proximal granitic and volcanic topographic high points. Deposition of the Loch Burn Formation in the Murchison Mountains is bracketed between a 342.3 � 1.5 Ma basal granite and an intrusive 157.6 � 1.4 Ma quartz diorite. Metamorphism throughout the unit achieved greenschist and amphibolite facies temperatures (P unconstrained) in the Early Cretaceous (post c. 148 Ma and prior to c. 121 Ma). Although metasedimentary rocks provide insights into the tectonic evolution of Eastern Fiordland, a range of compositionally heterogeneous plutonic rocks dominates the geology. At Lake Manapouri, these comprise four principal associations: (1) the composite Pomona Island Granite (Carboniferous-Permian and Jurassic), (2) the Beehive Diorite (148.6 � 2.3 Ma), (3) the heterogeneous Hunter Intrusives (Carboniferous, Jurassic and Early Cretaceous) of the Darran/Median Suite and (4) HiSY granitoid dikes of the Separation Point Suite (123.5 � l.2Ma). The latter suite also occurs in immediately adjacent parts of Western Fiordland, forming the Refrigerator Orthogneiss (120.7 �1.1 Ma), the Puteketeke Granite (120.9 � 0.8 Ma) and the West Arm Leucogranite (116.3 � 1.2 Ma). Geobarometry indicates the Jurassic portions of the Darran/Median Suite were emplaced between 4 - 6 kbar and Western Fiordland Early Cretaceous Separation Point Suite between 5 - 7 kbar. Zircon initial �⁷⁷Hf/�⁷⁶Hf isotopic ratios suggest that Separation Point Suite magma could be derived from the same Paleozoic - Late Neoproterozoic mantle source as the Jurassic portion of the Hunter Intrusives member of the Darran/Median Suite. However, Early Cretaceous plutons west of the Early Cretaceous active margin (and study area) have significantly more evolved source regions, reflecting the influence of continental Gondwana on lithosphere composition. Initial �⁷⁷Hf/�⁷⁶Hf ratios from the Loch Burn Formation Carboniferous basal granite zircon are slightly less primitive than either Darran/Median or Separation Point Suite but nowhere near as evolved as similar-aged zircon in the Eastern Fiordland Mt Crescent Paragneiss unit in the Hunter Mountains. The Cambrian/Early Ordovician Russet Paragneiss, which lies just west of the Grebe Mylonite Zone in Western Fiordland and has been intruded by a range of Early Paleozoic to Mesozoic plutons, was metamorphosed at 7.5 � 1.2 kbar, 633 � 25�C at 348.6 � 12 Ma and exhibits no evidence for Jurassic re-equilibration. Zircon U-Pb isotopes from a pelitic schist enclave within the Western Fiordland Mt Murrell Amphibolite are interpreted to show that these and associated intrusive rocks were also metamorphosed at kyanite-grade in the Carboniferous. This event, �M1�, generated a pervasive lineation and distinctive pargasite-anorthite-kyanite/corundum-bearing assemblages in layered aluminous components to the Mt Murrell Amphibolite, garnet-amphibole-biotite-kyanite-gedrite-plagioclase-quartz in metasomatised tonalite at the Mt Murrell Amphibolite margins, and low CaO-garnet in pelitic schist enclaves within the amphibolite. P-T estimates suggest M1 took place at 6.6 � 0.8 kbar, 618 � 25�C. Both the timing and P-T conditions of M1 overlap with metamorphism of the Russet Paragneiss. However, the layered amphibolites and pelitic schist enclaves partially re-equilibrated in the Early Cretaceous (c. 115 Ma) at higher pressure (8.8 � 0.9 kbar). This event, �M2�, generated static assemblages of margarite, epidote, chlorite, oligoclase-andesine and second-generation kyanite in the layered amphibolites and relict olivine gabbronorite, and high-CaO garnet rims, biotite, plagioclase, quartz, kyanite and staurolite in the pelitic schist enclaves. Trace element chemistries of c. 340 Ma zircon grains in the schist have unusual smoothed Ce/Ce* anomalies and high Th/U ratios. These properties may be result of fluid flow and metasomatism from the enveloping amphibolite during imposition of the penetrative M1 lineation. Early Cretaceous (c. 115 Ma) zircon overgrowths and chemistries (low heavy rare earth elements, low Th/U ratios, large Eu/Eu* anomalies) are compatible with formation in the presence of local M2 garnet and plagioclase. M2 was coeval with amphibolite to garnet-granulite facies metamorphism of the regionally extensive Western Fiordland Orthogneiss and Arthur River Complex, thus demonstrating that high-pressure metamorphism was not restricted to the Western Fiordland Early Cretaceous components and their marginal metasedimentary rocks. The Grebe Mylonite Zone forms a lithologic, metamorphic, isotopic and structural boundary between Eastern and Western Fiordland. This 200 to 300 metre-wide and > 50 km long north-striking mylonitic zone is the prominent manifestation of deformation associated with the wider (c. 30 km) Grebe Shear Zone, which extends into Eastern and Western Fiordland. Qualitative and quantitative P-T estimates indicate the currently exposed level of the Grebe Mylonite Zone was active at amphibolite facies conditions (c. 600�C and c. 6 kbar). Coupled U-Pb and Ar-Ar data indicate the mylonite zone was active at, or between, c. 128 and 116 Ma. Temperature-time profiles constructed along a transect perpendicular to the shear zone, used in conjunction with fabric data and the orientation of nearby Tertiary unconformities, suggest that the currently sub-vertical shear zone was rotated during the Cenozoic from an initially steeply east-dipping geometry with a reverse sense of shear. This style of deformation is consistent with an inclined continuously partitioned transpressional structure. Synkinematic emplacement and deformation of the Refrigerator Orthogneiss implies that Grebe Shear Zone provided a crustal anisotropy that facilitated the movement and emplacement of some Separation Point Suite magmas through the crust. Data collected here are interpreted to show that the Grebe Shear Zone is a terrane-bounding suture. Differences in metasedimentary rock composition, age, provenance and metamorphism across the zone suggest that the crustal framework to Eastern Fiordland did not forth in its current tectonic position. Instead, the Mesozoic portion of Eastern Fiordland is inferred to have developed allochthonously with respect to Western Fiordland, with components internally dismembered and rearranged during Jurassic metamorphism and juxtaposition in the Early Cretaceous. However, the Jurassic portion of the arc may have developed near the Gondwana margin because the Jurassic Borland Paragneiss contains detritus that can be partly matched to sources in the Western and Eastern Provinces of New Zealand, as well as early parts of the Darran/Median Suite and Loch Burn Formation. Recognition that the Eastern Fiordland arc was faulted against and then over Western Fiordland in the Early Cretaceous provides a possible driving mechanism for coeval transpressive shortening, rapid burial and high-pressure metamorphism (e.g., as seen in the Mt Murrell Amphibolite) of the lower Western Fiordland crust.

Abstract:
L’analyse géomorphologique d'une zone d’étude permet d’identifier et de comprendre le rôle des facteurs de contrôle tectonique et climatique sur l’évolution passée, récente et future de la surface topographique. Ce travail de recherche porte sur l’analyse géomorphologique des paysages du secteur de l’état de Sarawak, localisé au nord de l’île de Bornéo en contexte tropical. À travers l'analyse morphotectonique des deux plus grands bassins versants : le bassin versant du Rajang et du Baram, il a été possible de dresser une première évaluation du cadre morpho-tectonique de la région et des conséquences topographiques. Les bassins versants étudiés et situés au centre et au Nord de Sarawak drainent une superficie totale d'environ 75 000 km². L'île de Bornéo présente une couverture végétale dense spécifique aux régions tropicales, et demeurant souvent difficile d’accès. Cette île témoigne de terrains montagneux et accidentés, découpés par de vallées profondes aux flancs abruptes, entraînant des taux de dénudation notables depuis le Miocène. La première contribution est d’identifier les principales failles mineures et majeures ayant par réactivation participées au rajeunissement de la surface topographie à l’échelle régionale. À l’échelle des deux bassins versants, les facteurs géomorphologiques suivants comme l’intégrale hypsométrique, les facteurs d’asymétrie, les anomalies de pente identifiées le long des rivières ont été cartographiées à l’aide des techniques d'autocorrélation spatiale. Les principaux mouvements verticaux identifiés sont accommodés le long des accidents structuraux majeurs et des chevauchements spécifiques de la zone Nord de Bornéo. Parmi les autres résultats, il est également observé des surfaces planes reliques, à haute altitude, n’ayant pas encore réajustées leur surface d’équilibre depuis les 5 derniers Ma malgré de phases rapides de soulèvement connues. Enfin, à l’échelle de la zone d’étude, où les contrastes lithologiques sont absents, la présence de nombreuses ruptures de pente ou knickpoints sont observés le long des principaux profils longitudinaux des rivières. Les ruptures de pente fortes sont dans la majorité corrélables aux principaux accidents structuraux. Des observations de terrain viennent renforcer nos hypothèses par la présence de terrasses fluviatiles soulevées. Ce travail d’analyse d’indices géomorphologiques complétés par des observations de terrain permet alors de proposer un modèle synthétique des principaux facteurs de contrôle responsables du rajeunissement de la surface topographique de l’état de Sarawak jusqu’alors sous-estimé et méconnu
Geomorphic assessment of a region is considered to be crucial in understanding the present day landscapeand forces that have acted and is currently acting on the ever evolving topography. This thesis explores the geomorphology of the tropical landscape of Sarawak, north Borneo through morphotectonic analysis of two of the largest drainage basins of the entire Borneo Island: the Rajang and Baram basin; making this work the first systematic tectono-geomorphic evaluation of the region. The island of Borneo is enveloped by thick rainforests, hostile rugged mountainous terrain with deep and steep valleys, and is characterized by high denudation rates since Miocene. The studied drainage basins flow across entire central and north Sarawak and drain a total combined area of ca. 75, 000 km². The first contribution to the field is by conducting a study on the presence of active tectonic forces that modify the topography through rejuvenation of major and minor faults. The analysis using basin-scale hypsometry, asymmetry factor, normalized channel steepness index and spatial autocorrelation techniques showed that the landscape has been rejuvenated and experiences tectonic deformation to present-day in the form of active folding of the fold-thrust orogenic belts of the Interior Highlands which form the backbone of Borneo. From the results, we highlighted the presence of relict surfaces of landscapes which were isolated at high elevations unable to balance a rapid uplift phase experienced after 5 Ma. We extended the study in order to identify the current stage of landscape development by conducting stream profile analysis which displayed an array of knick-zones and knick points devoid of lithological and climatic controls. Deep V-shaped valleys formed in the zones that demonstrated active folding of the highlands also revealed relief anomalies highlighted through topographic analysis. We showed that enhanced orographic precipitation following the rapid creation of relief has supported adjustment of the topography to a state of transience. In the next part of this work, we conducted swath profile analysis, minimum bulk erosion and channel steepness anomaly maps in order to identify the role of rapid incision in exacerbating erosion rates as a response to tectonic and climatic forcing. We show that there exists a coupling between incision rates, precipitation and channel steepness which shows a relation of direct proportionality. Extensive geomorphic and sedimentological field campaigns were carried out in order to substantiate our results and conclusions. The field work revealed the presence of uplifted fluvial terraces, waterfalls and cataracts corresponding to knick-points identified by us. Finally, we combine our results from the geomorphic analysis and stratigraphic field work in order to construct a conceptual model showing the geomorphic evolution of Sarawak, north Borneo

A atividade neotectônica no globo terrestre é responsável por importantes processos geológicos recentes controlando a evolução de paisagens, associada à reativação episódica de zonas de fraqueza crustal, responsáveis diretas por estes processos, marcando os principais sítios de deformação. Os estudos morfotectônicos inseridos na temática neotectônica subsidiam importantes investigações aplicadas à Geomorfologia e contribuem para o entendimento da evolução do relevo e da implantação de bacias de drenagem controladas pelas formas e estruturas. A Alta Mogiana Paulista (Altinópolis/Batatais/Serrana) corresponde à região nordeste do estado de São Paulo, é alvo de estudos geológicos e geomorfológicos direcionados para o contexto da evolução paisagem local. No contexto geológico a região esta inserida em domínios da Bacia do Paraná, com litologias dominantes do Mesozóico e do Cenozóico. A área apresenta uma estrutura simples, na forma de um grande monoclinal com mergulho para NW, afetado por falhas normais e transcorrentes, responsáveis pelo arranjo da drenagem e das formas de relevo. O padrão de fraturamento das rochas da Alta Mogiana Paulista apresentam um predomínio de lineamentos com direção N-S e E-W e, com menor importância, nas direções NE e NW. As principais unidades geomorfológicas mapeadas foram: colinas amplas e médias, escarpas, serras alongadas e morros testemunhos inseridos na província das Cuestas Basálticas. No quadro morfotectônico, os principais fatores que ilustram esta compartimentação estão impressos no rearranjo da drenagem na forma de capturas e anomalias na porção central da área de estudo, com direções NE para os alinhamentos destas feições.

The neotectonic activity in the globe is responsible for important recent geologic processes controlling the landscapes evolution associated to episodic reactivation of zones of crustal weakness. Those structures make strong control for the processes, marking the major sites of strain concentration. The morphotectonic studies inserted in the thematic of Neotectonics subsidize important inquiries applied to the Geomorphology and contribute to the understanding of the relief evolution and the implantation of the drainage basins controlled by geological bodies and structures. The Alta Mogiana Paulista region (Altinópolis/Batatais/Serrana) in the northeastern of São Paulo State was the target of geologic and geomorphologic studies directed to the local landscape evolution context. In the geologic context the region is inserted into the Paraná Basin domains exhibiting lithologies from Mesozoic and Cenozoic times. The studied area shows a simple structure of a great monocline dipping towards NW affected by normal and transcurrent faults responsible by the framework of the drainage and relief forms. In the Alta Mogiana Paulista rock fractures pattern predominate lineaments directed N-S and E-W and the NE and NW are less important. The principal geomorphologic mapped units were ample and middle hills, scarps, elongated ranges and residual hills inserted into the Basaltic Cuestas Province. In the geomorphologic picture the principal factors that illustrate this compartmentation are printed in the rearrangement of the drainage elements forming river captures and anomalies in the central portion of the studied area aligned along the NE direction. The surface sedimentary covers are recognized along all the area most concentrated in the high planes and covering the hills level into the depressed areas. The geologic and geomorphologic evolution... (Complete abstract, click electronic access below)

Abstract:
Tectonic activity in an area could result in various impacts such as changes in elevation, level of slope percentages, river flow patterns and systems, and the formation of geological structures both locally and regionally, which will form a new landscape. The tectonic activity also affects the stratigraphic sequences of the area. Therefore, it is necessary to study morphotectonic or landscape forms that are influenced by active tectonic activities, both those occur recently and in the past. These geological results help provide information of the potential of natural resources in and around Tanjung Bungo area. Morphological data are based on three main aspects including morphogenesis, morphometry, and morphography. The data are collected in two ways, the first is field survey by directly observing and taking field data such as measuring geological structures, rock positions, and outcrop profiles. The second way is to interpret them through Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and aerial photographs by analyzing river flow patterns and lineament analysis. The field measurement data are processed using WinTensor, Dips, and SedLog Software. The supporting data such as Topographic Maps, Morphological Elevation Maps, Slope Maps, Flow Pattern Maps, and Lineament Maps are based on DEM data and are processed using ArcGis Software 10.6.1 and PCI Geomatica. Morphotectonically, the Tanjung Bungo area is at a moderate to high-class level of tectonic activity taken place actively resulted in several joints, faults, and folds. The formation of geological structures has affected the morphological conditions of the area as seen from the development of steep slopes, structural flow patterns such as radial, rectangular, and dendritic, as well as illustrated by rough surface relief in Tanjung Bungo area. This area has the potential for oil and gas resources as indicated by the Telisa Formation, consisting of calcareous silts rich in planktonic and benthonic fossils, which may be source rocks and its contact with the Menggala Formation which is braided river system deposits that could be good reservoirs. Further research needs to be done since current research is only an interpretation of surface data. Current natural resources being exploited in Tanjung Bungo region are coals. The coals have thicknesses of 5-7 cm and are classified as bituminous coals.
