We present a remote sensing analysis to identify potential concentrations of natural hydrogen by observing fairy circles. Utilising Principal Component Analysis (PCA), distinct features of these formations were delineated, indicating their differenti...

Several volcanic buildups have been documented using gravity and magnetic data at specific locations in the Northern Red Sea (NRS). Most of these volcanoes were never sampled, and only a few were imaged by seismic or bathymetry data. Furthermore, the...

Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin (2023)
Journal Article

The Red Sea basin includes a thick Middle to Late Miocene evaporitic succession that underwent halokinesis and caused intensive reshaping of the seafloor and the development of salt-tectonic structures. However, the geometry and kinematics of these s... Read More about Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin.

Red Sea rifting in central Egypt: constraints from the offshore Quseir province (2022)
Journal Article

The formation of oceanic crust in the southern and central Red Sea is generally accepted to have started at c. 5 Ma. However, the nature of the crust in the northern Red Sea is still debated. This paper describes the rift architecture, dynamics and e... Read More about Red Sea rifting in central Egypt: constraints from the offshore Quseir province.
