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

Nature 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

Frontiers 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

Frontiers 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 ...

Strike-Slip Fault Effects on Diversity of the Ediacaran Mound-Shoal Distribution in the Central Sichuan Intracratonic Basin, China

Energies, 2022
The largest Precambrian gasfield in China has been found from the Ediacaran (Sinian) carbonates in the central Sichuan Basin. The deep ancient reservoirs were generally attributed to the high-energy mound-shoal body in the carbonate platform.

The Strike-Slip Fault Effects on Tight Ordovician Reef-Shoal Reservoirs in the Central Tarim Basin (NW China)

Energies, 2023
The largest carbonate condensate field in China has been found in the central Tarim Basin. Ordovician carbonate reservoirs are generally attributed to reef-shoal microfacies along a platform margin.
