Abstract
Identification of lateral boundaries for the subsurface structures is a popular topic in many applications of geoscience. For this purpose, many edge detection and enhancement methods have been introduced to determine the lineaments of subsurface structures. In this study, the improved parabola-based method has been applied to reveal the lineaments of subsurface structures of Nam Dinh province. The obtained results have shown that there are NW-SE trending structures in this region and most of the lineaments are in the depth range of 2 km to 8 km. These results provide a new perspective to help us better understand the structural framework and tectonic settings of the study area. (c) 2021 The Author(s).
