10 ENGLISH BOOKS RELATING TO «DIAPIRISM»
Discover the use of
diapirism in the following bibliographical selection. Books relating to
diapirism and brief extracts from same to provide context of its use in English literature.
As mentioned above, buoyancy forces related to gravity inversion are generally
not sufficient to initiate active diapirism. Only when a diapir is well established
and the overburden becomes thin can diapirism be driven by buoyancy forces.

Subsurface Sediment Mobilization
During the early to middle Miocene period of basin extension (16 to 9 Ma),
normal faulting triggered the diapirism from mobile overpressured shale
containing olistostromes. Plio-Quaternary diapirism evolved as a second main
stage of diapiric ...

Chapter 12 DIAPIRS AND DIAPIRISM 12.1 . Introduction The terms diapir and
diapirism, which are derived from the Greek word “diapeirem” (to pierce), were
first used to describe folds with pierced cores which occur in the Carpathians.
Initially ...

Encyclopaedia of Petroleum Science and Engineering
There are two types of mudstone diapirism. First are true mudstone diapirs which
are penetrative stocks. These may have a surface expression in the form of mud
volcanoes. Second are incipient diapirs, forming the cores of anticlines, similar ...
DIAPIRISM Diapirism is a dynamic process that takes place under the force of
gravity during the accumulation of sediment in a developing sedimentary basin.
Its significance for the petroleum geologist is that it is a process that deforms the ...

Gneiss Domes in Orogeny
We have focused on diapirism as a possible agent for the isothermal
decompression segment of the P-T path, and clearly normal faulting occurs in the
upper crust of these systems. Possible relationships between normal faulting and
gneiss ...

The four large domes of Magesc, Thetieu, Dax, and Bastennes-Gaujacq,
however, are exceptions; these features are the best examples of Aquitanian
diapirism, and the gravitational instability and buoyancy of the salt-bearing
Triassic almost ...

Evaporites, Petroleum and Mineral Resources
By comparison, in northwest Africa, practically all of the material covering the
Triassic evaporites is carbonate (Bishop, 1988), and diapirism was initiated
during carbonate sedimentation very soon after deposition of the evaporites.
Thus, rapid ...
