Geosystems and Geoenvironment, 2023 The Kabaw Fault is a north-south trending arcuate suture zone formed between the accretionary prism of the Indo-Myanmar Ranges (IMR), and the Central Myanmar Basin (CMB). The lineament of the Kabaw Fault is defined as a stratigraphic contact zone between

Exhumation history of the Hengchun Ridge and its implications for Taiwan orogenic processes
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The orogenic evolution of Taiwan is thought to have occurred with a steady and southward propagating trend since the Late Miocene. Recent studies suggest a two-stage collision for the Taiwan orogen and that the collision occurred simultaneously along the

Exhuming an Accretionary Prism: A Case Study of the Kodiak Accretionary Complex, Alaska, USA
Tectonics, 2023 AbstractWe have carried a structural study across Kodiak accretionary complex in Alaska, USA, in order to describe its thermal structure and decipher the processes of exhumation. The accretionary complex consists of a stack of tectonic mélanges and coherent units. Mélanges are characterized by simple shear deformation with a pervasive network of top‐to‐

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1990 Subduction zones are the most dynamic tectonic environments on the face of Earth. Most subduction zones are submarine and at many, large accretionary prisms are formed of sediments scraped from the subducting oceanic lithosphere. These prisms grow in a water‐saturated environment; consequently, their tectonic, thermal and chemical evolution is strongly

Earth, Planets and Space, 2020 Sediment lithology, especially the clay mineral fraction, is basic geologic information, which is important for understanding faulting and evolutionary process of the accretionary prism.

The First D/V Chikyu IODP Operations: Successful Logging and Coring During NanTroSEIZE Stage 1 Expeditions [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2008 The Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment (NanTroSEIZE) is a multi-expedition IODP drilling project aimed at drilling, coring, logging, and instrumenting the seismogenic zone of an active subduction margin , in a region thought to generate megathrust

Structural control and system-level behavior of the seismic cycle at the Nankai Trough
Earth, Planets and Space, 2020 The Nankai Trough in Southwest Japan exhibits a wide spectrum of fault slip, with long-term and short-term slow-slip events, slow and fast earthquakes, all associated with different segments down the plate interface.
