OGS Core Logging Lab - logging sediment cores in Lago Argentino (Brazo Sur), Argentina

Caburlotto, Andrea | Caffau, Mauro | Lodolo, Emanuele

2025

The spectacular water outburst occurring semi-periodically when the ice-dam formed by the external front of the Perito Moreno glacier collapses, is one of the most attracting events in the UNESCO ‘Parque Nacional Los Glaciares’ of southern Patagonia. These occurrences have been documented since...

Cathodoluminescence zoning images of Lower El Cajete quartz and sanidine crystals, Valles Caldera, New Mexico, USA

Kim, Jisoo | Roggensack, Kurt | Clarke, Amanda | Costa, Simone | D'Oriano, Claudia

2025

The Valles Caldera, New Mexico, USA was created by two caldera-forming eruptions at ~1.6 and ~1.1 Myr. Since then, post-caldera activity has consisted of lava domes, lava flows, large explosive phases, and a hydrothermal system active today. Possibly the youngest eruption sequence, El Cajete,...

In situ EMPA and LA-ICP-MS chemical analysis of mantle xenoliths from Sierra Baguales (50°S), Patagonia

Bonazzi, Mattia | Zanetti, Alberto | Margutti, Roberto | Vannucci , Riccardo

2023

The Patagonia is a vast region located in the southernmost tip of the South America continent. It shows a basaltic plateau formed by volcanic activity started in the Upper Cretaceous-Lower Cenozoic (e.g., Baker et al. 1981; Ramos et al. 1982) and continued during Plio-Quaternary period. Long...

Digital Image Correlation data from experiments of releasing bend evolution within different strength wet kaolin

Gabriel, Alana | Elston, Hanna | Cooke, Michele | Ramos Sanchez, Christ

2025

The data set includes the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) results for four experiments of releasing bends along dextral strike-slip faults that were performed at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst (USA). Gabriel et al. (in prep.) used the DIC data sets to investigate how releasing...

Apatite fission-track data from the watershed area of the Northern Apennines (Italy)

Balestrieri, Maria Laura | Bonini, Marco | Maestrelli, Daniele | Montanari, Domenico | Sani, Federico

2024

The data-set contains nine apatite fission-track data from samples collected at strategic locations to constrain the age of deformation along an ideal transect crossing the main Apennine watershed (from the north-eastern margin of the Casentino Basin to the Romagna Apennines. Apatite...

4D X-ray microtomography dataset of well rocks from the Campi Flegrei caldera (4dCFcCores)

Buono, Gianmarco | Pappalardo, Lucia

2024

This data publication is related to the article of Buono et al. (2025) and contains the results of 4D X-ray microtomography investigations of well rocks from the Campi Flegrei caldera conducted at the micro-CT laboratory of the Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia-Osservatorio...

Petrological, geochemical and isotopic characterization of kamafugites from East-Central Africa, Italy and Brazil: a review

Innocenzi, Francesca | Foley, Stephen | Ronca, Sara | Agostini, Samuele | Guarino, Vincenza | Lustrino, Michele

2025

Kamafugites are 'exotic igneous rocks' with mineralogical and chemical compositions that differ from those observed in common magmas. Despite their importance, kamafugites are still a poorly constrained topic and they lack a general petrological model due to their variable petrographic,...

Results of analogue tectonic models of rifting and tectonic lineament reactivation along the Main Ethiopian Rift

Zwaan, Frank | Muluneh, Ameha A. | Liu, Jun | Kosari, Ehsan | Rosenau, Matthias | Corti, Giacomo | Sani, Federico

2025

This data set includes results from a total of 13 analogue tectonic models aimed at simulating the activation of tectonic lineaments associated with the Main Ethiopian Rift in eastern Africa. We use a model set-up based on previous work by Zwaan et al. (2021, 2022). This set-up involves a...

Mechanical data of rotary shear experiments in bituminous dolostones

Chinello, Miriana | Aretusini, Stefano | Spagnuolo, Elena | Di Toro, Giulio

2025

Mirror-like Surfaces (MSs) are ultra-polished fault surfaces widespread in carbonate seismic terrains, but their formation process is still debated. We deformed gouge samples from exposed fault surfaces hosted in bituminous dolostone rocks in a rotary shear apparatus (SHIVA) at seismic slip...

Ring-shear test data of quartz sand SIBELCO S80 used for analogue modelling in the Tectonic Laboratory (TecLab) at Utrecht University

Willingshofer, Ernst | Rosenau, Matthias

2025

This dataset provides friction data from ring-shear tests on quartz sand SIBELCO S80 used in analogue modelling of tectonic processes as a rock analogue for the earth’s upper crust (e.g., Klinkmüller et al., 2016). According to our analysis the material shows a Mohr-Coulomb behaviour...
