AbstractFollowing more than 25 years of exploration and research since the last regional appraisal, the number of known subaerially exposed volcanoes in the northern Antarctic Peninsula region has more than trebled, from less than 15 to more than 50, and that total must be increased at least three-fold if seamounts in Bransfield Strait are included. Several volcanoes remain unvisited and there are relatively few detailed studies. The region includes Deception Island, the most prolific active volcano in Antarctica, and Mount Haddington, the largest volcano in Antarctica. The tectonic environmen

AbstractPotassium–argon (K–Ar) ages on whole rock samples have been measured on lavas from the subaerial Samoa Islands, which form a broadly linear volcanic chain that extends from the ESE to the WNW for about 360 km. The Manu'a Islands near the southeast limit of the chain exhibit youthful ages, with most <0.4 Ma, in keeping with the geological observations. Tutuila consists of several volcanoes, and previous work yielded a mean K–Ar age of 1.26 ± 0.15 Ma for the shield-building volcanism. Upolu, to the WNW of Tutuila, gives a mean age of 2.15 ± 0.35 Ma for the shield-building phase, repre

Oceanic islands can be divided, according to their origin, in volcanic and tectonic. Volcanic islands are due to excess volcanism. Tectonic islands are mainly formed due to vertical tectonic motions of blocks of oceanic lithosphere along transverse ridges flanking transform faults at slow and ultraslow mid-ocean ridges. Vertical tectonic motions are due to a reorganization of the geometry of the transform plate boundary, with the transition from a transcurrent tectonics to a transtensive and/or transpressive tectonics, with the formation of the transverse ridges.

Abstract:
Java Island is an active volcanic arc that resides in the southwestern - southern boundary of Sundaland edges. The volcanic arc consists of several volcanism episodes, with a relatively younging trend northward (Late Oligocene to Pleistocene), following the Indo-Australian plates inward migration. In contrast to the prolific neighboring Northwest and Northeast Java Basins in the Northern edges of Java Island; the basin reconstruction and development in the East-West trending depression in median ranges of Java (from Bogor to Kendeng Troughs) are overlooked and lays bare the challenge to the se

ABSTRACT: The oldest basement rock discovered so far in Hainan Island is the augen granite gneiss of the Gezhencun Formation in the Middle Proterozoic era. By studying its petrology and geometry, the stress and temperature pressure conditions during rock formation can be restored and reconstructed, which is of great significance for reconstructing the early tectonic framework and geological environment of Hainan Island. Field geological, geochemical, and tectonic geological studies have shown that the upper part of the Gezhencun Formation is mainly composed of biotite plagioclase gneiss or mix

Abstract:
Geothermal is a very expensive investment industry. Therefore, it is necessary to map a geological structure in the sub-surface, i.e., faults, and rock formations that control volcanic hydrothermal systems to reduce investment risk in the exploitation of geothermal. On the other hand, the hydrothermal system aims for flow paths connecting reservoir wells for fluid production. The Jaboi Volcano, with an estimated 80 MWe located on Weh Island, Indonesia, has been planned by the government to develop electrical energy, where the excess energy will be exported to Banda Aceh via undersea cables.

Abstract:
Channel Island National Park (CHIS), incorporating five islands off the coast of southern California (Anacapa Island, San Miguel Island, Santa Barbara Island, Santa Cruz Island, and Santa Rosa Island), has an outstanding paleontological record. The park has significant fossils dating from the Late Cretaceous to the Holocene, representing organisms of the sea, the land, and the air. Highlights include: the famous pygmy mammoths that inhabited the conjoined northern islands during the late Pleistocene; the best fossil avifauna of any National Park Service (NPS) unit; intertwined paleontological

Abstract:
Cretaceous-Paleogene strata along the eastern coast of Baffin Island, on Bylot Island, and on associated islands north of Cape Dyer, have been known since the early days of exploration of Baffin Bay in the mid-nineteenth century. Studies of these strata in the 1970s-1990s established their clastic nature and revealed details of their stratigraphy, ages, and depositional settings. Onshore strata in the Cape Dyer area accumulated in close association with volcanic deposits related to late-stage rifting in the Late Cretaceous to Early Paleocene that eventually formed Baffin Bay.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to determine the seismic hazards that can affect Pohnpei Island and provide estimates of the ground motion parameters. The primary parameters are peak ground acceleration (PGA), pseudo-spectral acceleration (PSA), and velocity. These values were determined both probabilistically and deterministically to illustrate the overall seismic hazard to Pohnpei Island. A review was conducted of the technical literature to determine geologic studies that have been performed for characterization of the island’s volcanism, stratigraphy, and tectonism.

The Snow Island Suite was preceded by offshore arc volcanism and possible back-arc basin activity, with a U-Pb age peak at 2.635 Ga (Marjorie peak). About 50% of the Snow Island Suite is an infracrustal granitoid with K-enriched and tonalitic subtypes; the remainder lies on a sanukitoid spectrum. The sanukitoidal rocks are dominantly orthopyr

To this end we acquired controlled-source electromagnetic, seismic, hydroacoustic, geochemical, seafloor imagery data off Malta. Preliminary evaluation of the geophysical data show that there are resisitivity anomalies that may represent offshore freshwater aquifers. The absence of evidence for offshore springs means that thes
