Analogue experiments on releasing and restraining bends and their application to the study of the Barents Shear Margin [PDF]
Solid Earth, 2023 The Barents Shear Margin separates the Svalbard and Barents Sea from the North Atlantic. During the break-up of the North Atlantic the plate tectonic configuration was characterized by sequential dextral shear, extension, and eventually contraction and ...

Formation, Rotation, and Present-Day Configuration of Kashmir and Peshawar Basins in NW Himalaya
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020 The thrust top intermontane basins that are located to the east of the Hazara-Kashmir syntaxis (HKS) in NW Himalaya are ∼NW–SE oriented and run parallel to the strike of the major Himalayan thrusts, which is in contrast to the similar basins that lie at ...
