    Notes: Approximately 56% of 60 known nested calderas are pairs of nonintersecting subcircular structures with similar eccentricities. The consistent configuration suggests an interdependence in the formation of the two annular structures. This possibility has been investigated using 11 analogue models with sand (crust analogue) overlying silicone (magma analogue). Silicone withdrawal induces collapse within the sand, forming two concentric depressions: the first-formed inner depression, bordered by outward-dipping reverse ring faults (mean dip of 75°), induces the collapse of the outer depression, bordered by inward dipping, normal ring faults (mean dip of 84°). An original linear relationship is determined among the ratios between the diameters of the two depressions and the depth of the ring faults. Selected pairs of natural nested calderas show similar proportions, highlighting a consistent architecture. This suggests that some pairs of nonintersecting nested calderas result from a single collapse event.

    Right-lateral transpressional tectonics along the boundary between Lut and Tabas blocks (Central Iran) (2013)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-05-09
    Description: One of the major issues for understanding the tectonic evolution of continental regions is how pre-existing discontinuities influence the style and distribution of deformation, which is often not obviously and uniquely connected to the plate-boundary kinematics. Iran represents one of the most instructive regions to study continental deformation, as here the present-day Arabia–Eurasia convergence is accommodated in a very wide area over a range of structures. The tectonic boundary between the Lut and the Tabas blocks of Central Iran currently accommodates part of the Arabia–Eurasia convergence by right-lateral strike-slip faults, associated with NNW–SSE oriented fold-related thrust. During Middle-Late Jurassic, this boundary was the location of a large-scale shelf-lagoon carbonate platform-slope-to-basin depositional system, mainly controlled by the activity of a N–S oriented normal fault system. In this study, the geometry and the kinematics of the deformation at the tectonic boundary between the Lut and the Tabas blocks, are reconstructed from an integrated anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) and structural analysis in the Upper Jurassic Garedu Red Beds Fm., outcropping at the core of a NNE–SSW oriented syncline in the northern Shotori Range. AMS and structural results indicate that the Upper Jurassic Garedu Red Beds Fm. syncline can be defined as a transected fold, where the mismatch between fold hinge and magnetic fabric/cleavage is about 15° counter-clockwise, suggesting that this fold system formed as a consequence of right-lateral transpressional tectonics. Results from this study thus document the evolution of Jurassic normal faults to a transpressional tectonic boundary between the Tabas and Lut crustal blocks sometime between the Lower Cretaceous and Palaeocene.

    Hyaloclastite fragmentation below the glass transition: An example from El Barronal submarine volcanic complex (Spain) (2014)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    In: Geology
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-01-01
    Description: Submarine felsic volcanoes are dominated by hyaloclastic piles hundreds of meters thick, the origin of which, in terms of how and when they form, is far from being completely understood. Here we present a study of the thermal remanent magnetization of the Miocene high-K dacitic El Barronal hyaloclastites (Cabo de Gata, Spain), showing that their formation is dominated by in situ fragmentation with small or negligible transportation and/or rotation of different clasts after their formation. Data indicate that fragmentation progressed down to 210–390 °C, well below the glass-transition temperature estimated at 560–750 °C depending on the water content of the high-K dacite. Hence, hyaloclastite fragmentation in thick lavas may occur over most of the cooling history, as a result of the progressive access of sea water toward the lava interior by development of a complex network of contraction fractures.

    A record of the Jurassic massive plate shift from the Garedu Formation of central Iran (2014)
    Geological Society of America (GSA)
    In: Geology
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-05-15
    Description: Modern generations of apparent polar wander paths (APWPs) show the occurrence in North American and African coordinates of a major and rapid shift in pole position (plate shift) during the Middle to Late Jurassic (175–145 Ma) that alternative curves from the literature tend to underestimate. This Jurassic massive polar shift (JMPS), of vast and as-yet unexplored paleogeographic implications, is also predicted for Eurasia from the North Atlantic plate circuit, but Jurassic data from this continent are scanty and problematic. Here we present paleomagnetic data from the Kimmeridgian–Tithonian (upper Jurassic) Garedu Formation of Iran, which was part of Eurasia since the Triassic. Paleomagnetic component directions of primary (pre-folding) age indicate a paleolatitude of deposition that is in excellent agreement with the latitude drop predicted for Iran from APWPs incorporating the JMPS. Moreover, we show that paleolatitudes calculated from these APWPs, used in conjunction with simple zonal climate belts, better explain the overall stratigraphic evolution of Iran during the Mesozoic. As Iran drifted from the tropical arid belt to the mid-latitude humid belt in the Late Triassic, carbonate platform productivity stopped while widespread coal-bearing sedimentation started, whereas as Iran returned to arid tropical latitudes during the JMPS, carbonate platform productivity and evaporitic sedimentation resumed. These results illustrate (1) the potent, but often neglected, control that plate motion (continental drift and/or true polar wander) across zonal climate belts exerts on the genesis of sedimentary facies; and (2) the importance of precisely controlled paleogeographic reconstructions for tectonic interpretations, especially during times of fast plate motion like the Jurassic. As a suggestion for future research, we predict that the adoption of Eurasian reference paleopoles incorporating the JMPS may lead to a reconciliation (or reinterpretation) of existing geologic and paleomagnetic data regarding the deformation history of central Asia.

    The evolution of the Calabrian Arc: Evidence from paleomagnetic and GPS observations (2007)
    Elsevier
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: The present-day arcuate shape of the Calabrian Arc has been accomplished during Neogene and Early Pleistocene by large and opposite vertical axis rotations along the two arms of the Arc. Clockwise (CW) rotations have been systematically registered in Sicily and Calabria, whereas counterclockwise (CCW) rotations were measured in Southern Apennines. Such opposite vertical axis rotations ceased in the uppermost part of the Lower Pleistocene (about 1 Ma ago) along almost the entire Calabrian Arc and are not observed in the present-day GPS velocity field. The end of the Calabrian Arc bending during the Quaternary marks a decrease in the efficiency of the tectonic processes related to the long-lived subduction of the Ionian slab, which caused the halting of the back-arc opening in the Southern Tyrrhenian Sea.

    The emplacement of the Late Miocene Monte Capanne intrusion (Elba Island, Central Italy): constraints from magnetic fabric analyses (2012)
    Springer Verlag New York Inc
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: Anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) analysis has been carried out in the thermometamorphic aureole surrounding the Late Miocene Monte Capanne pluton (Elba Island, Central Italy). The identification and separation of the main carriers of the magnetic susceptibility by low-temperature and high-field AMS measurements demonstrate that a correct knowledge of the magnetic fabric is needed in order to use AMS for tectonic interpretations. Magnetic fabric data, combined with structural data from the aureole, and their comparison with data from the pluton itself, were used to constraint the mode of pluton emplacement. Results document an intimate linkage between the magmatic flow pattern and the syn-metamorphic fabrics acquired during pluton emplacement in the host rocks. The magnetic/structural fabric in the aureole rocks is dominated by flattening deformation and no systematic relationship with any regional tectonic feature is observed. These results suggest that local processes induced by magma ascent in the upper crust might have played a primary role in space generation for pluton emplacement in the Tuscan Magmatic Province, suggesting a revaluation of the modes of pluton emplacement during the post-orogenic evolution of the northern Apennine system as a whole.

    Oroclinal bending in the Alborz Mountains (Northern Iran): New constraints on the age of South Caspian subduction and extrusion tectonics (2016)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-02-24
    Description: In this study, we report an extensive paleomagnetic study (76 sites) carried out in the Alborz Mts. (northern Iran), with the aim of reconstructing the rotation history and the origin of curvature of this orogenic chain. The analyzed deposits are the sedimentary successions of the Upper Red Formation (Miocene), Lower Red Formation (Oligocene) and Eocene clastic units. Paleomagnetic results indicate that the Alborz Mts. can be considered a secondary arc that originated as a linearmountain belt that progressively acquired its present day curvature through opposite vertical axis rotations along its strike. The curvature of the arc was entirely acquired after the middlelate Miocene,which is the age of the youngest investigated sediments (Upper Red Formation). Overall, our paleomagnetic data indicate that the Alborz Mts. can be considered an orocline. Our results define, for the first time, the rotational history of the entire Alborz curved mountain belt, and enable us to reconstruct the paleogeographic and tectonic evolution of northern Iran in the framework of Arabia-Eurasia continental deformation. The kinematics inferred by the pattern of paleomagnetic rotations is at odds with the present day kinematics of northern Iran, characterized by the westward extrusion of the South Caspian block, and by a left lateral shear between Central Iran and the central and western sectors of the Alborz Mts. By integrating paleomagnetic datawith stratigraphic, thermochronological, structural and GPS information,we propose that the initiation of South Caspian subduction and the activation of westward extrusion of South Caspian block occurred diachronously and that the initiation of the present-day kinematics of northern Iran was quite recent (Lower Pleistocene, b2 Ma).

    Inconsistent magnetic polarities in magnetite-and greigite-bearing sediments: Understanding complex magnetizations in the late Messinian in the Adana Basin (southern Turkey) (2012)
    American Geophysical Union
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-04-04
    Description: We present paleomagnetic, rock magnetic and scanning electron microscope data from three upper Messinian stratigraphic sections from the Adana Basin (southern Turkey). The collected samples are from fine-grained units, which were deposited during the Messinian Salinity Crisis (within subchron C3r). Paleomagnetic results reveal an inconsistent polarity record, related to a mixture of magnetite and greigite that hinders determination of a reliable magnetostratigraphy. Three classes of samples are recognized on the basis of paleomagnetic results. The first is characterized by a single magnetization component, with normal polarity, that is stable up to 530–580 C and is carried by magnetite. The second is characterized by a single magnetization component, with reversed polarity, that is stable up to 330–420 C. This magnetization is due to greigite, which developed after formation of slumps and before tectonic tilting of the studied successions. The third is characterized by reversed polarity, which is stable up to 530–580 C. We interpret this component as a primary magnetization carried by fine-grained and magnetically stable detrital magnetite. Results indicate that in the Adana Basin the assumption that a primary magnetization is carried by magnetite, and a magnetic overprint carried by greigite, does not hold because a late magnetic overprint has also been found for magnetite-bearing samples. Our data illustrate the complexity of magnetostratigraphic reconstructions in successions characterized by variable mixtures of magnetic minerals with different magnetic stability that formed at different stages. We demonstrate the need to perform detailed magnetic mineralogy analyses when conducting magnetostratigraphic studies of clay-rich sediments from marine or lacustrine environments.
