Magma storage in a strike-slip caldera. [PDF]

open access: yesNat Commun, 2016
Silicic calderas form during explosive volcanic eruptions when magma withdrawal triggers collapse along bounding faults. The nature of specific interactions between magmatism and tectonism in caldera-forming systems is, however, unclear.

Anatomy of strike-slip fault tsunami genesis. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2021
Tsunami generation from earthquake induced seafloor deformations has long been recognized as a major hazard to coastal areas. Strike-slip faulting has generally been believed as insufficient for triggering large tsunamis, except through the generation of submarine landslides.

Lithospheric models supported by the Caribbean and Levant examples help rethink transpression at plate boundaries [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Strike-slip restraining bends, such as the Levant Fault, belonging to push-up systems and the Jamaican fault network, belonging to duplex systems, display a diversity of fault geometries and deformation patterns that reflect distinct modes of ...

Geometry and Kinematics Characteristics of Strike-Slip Fault Zone in Complex Structure Area: A Case Study From the South No. 15 Strike-Slip Fault Zone in the Eastern Sichuan Basin, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The eastern Sichuan Basin has undergone multiple stages of tectonic evolution and shows complex structural characteristics. It is found that there are a series of NW-SE base-trending strike-slip faults in this area besides NE-SW strike-blocking ...

Genetic Types of the tp12cx Strike-Slip Fault Segments and Their Role in Controlling Reservoirs in the Tarim Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The change of motion mode of multistage active strike-slip faults controls the segmentary types of strike-slip faults, which is seldom studied.Based on high-precision 3D seismic data and the principle of structural analysis, this paper defines the ...

Flexural strike-slip basins

open access: yesGeology, 2021
Strike-slip faults are classically associated with pull-apart basins where continental crust is thinned between two laterally offset fault segments. Here we propose a subsidence mechanism to explain the formation of a new type of basin where no substantial segment offset or syn-strike-slip thinning is observed.

Structural characteristics, formation & evolution and genetic mechanisms of strizke–slip faults in the Tarim Basin

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2022
Exploration and development practices prove that intracratonic strike–slip faults control the development of carbonate reservoirs and the enrichment of oil and gas in the Tarim Basin.

Distribution and gas exploration of the strike–slip faults in the central Sichuan Basin

open access: yesNatural Gas Industry B, 2022
The Sichuan Basin has abundant oil and gas resources and it has been generally acknowledged as a super petroliferous basin. In recent years, immense exploration and development potential of deep natural gas emerges in the Sichuan Basin.

Characterization parameters of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults

open access: yesShiyou shiyan dizhi, 2023
Strike-slip faults and their related structures have great value for oil and gas exploration. Accurate understanding of the evolution degree of strike-slip faults is crucial to oil and gas exploration in strike-slip structural belts.

The characteristics of strike-slip faults and their control on hydrocarbon distribution in deep carbonate reservoirs of the central Sichuan Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The past decade has witnessed a breakthrough in the gas exploration of deep marine carbonates of the central Sichuan Basin. Deep faults research has also attracted increasing attention, as faulting plays an important role in reservoir control.
