The Buzet Thrust Fault in Istria and overturned carbonate megabeds in

open access: yesGeologija, 2004
Detailed geological mapping undertaken in the framework of monitoring of the motorway construction works in SW Slovenia has revealed the existence of a large-scale thrust fault between Buzet and Koper (termed the Buzet Thrust Fault) and extensive thrust ...

Deformation and fluid processes in thrust sheets from the central Pyrenees [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Deformation and fluid processes in thrust sheets are studied using a small thrust system n the footwall of the Gavarnle Thrust, central Pyrenees. This system comprises a set of blind thrusts that Imbricate a thin Mesozoic cover succession (Triassic red ...

Thrust sheet evolution in the Kinlochewe region of the Moine Thrust Zone, N.W. Scotland and the Pelvoux-Brianconnais, French Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
Balanced and restored cross sections demonstrate a minimum 16 km shortening below the Moine Thrust and minimum restored wi1ths of 17 km between the La Meije and Combeynot Thrusts (external Alps), and 54 km between the frontal Subbrianconnais Thrust ...

Fault rock evolution and fluid flow in sedimentary basins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Structural studies have been undertaken in two extensional fault regimes associated with post-Caledonian basin-forming events in northern Scotland. A combination of detailed mapping and microstructural analysis has revealed the deformation processes and ...

Southwest extension of dextral transpression along the Burnsville fault into the Clyde 7.5-minute quadrangle, western North Carolina, USA

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2020
The Neoacadian Burnsville fault is a dextral transpressional structure exposed in western North Carolina. Bedrock geologic mapping in the Clyde 7.5-minute quadrangle documents the fault an additional ∼40 km southwest than previously mapped.

Fluid Dynamics in a Thrust Fault Inferred from Petrology and Geochemistry of Calcite Veins: An Example from the Southern Pyrenees

open access: yesGeofluids, 2020
Petrographic and geochemical analyses (δ18O, δ13C, 87Sr/86Sr, clumped isotopes, and elemental composition) coupled with field structural data of synkinematic calcite veins, fault rocks, and host rocks are used to reconstruct the episodic evolution of an ...

Study of overthrust nappe structure and its geodynamic mechanism along the southeastern margin of Nansha Trough

open access: yesChina Geology, 2018
: On the basis of interpretation of comprehensive geophysical data and foreign data analysis, there existed a lot of overburden detachment shear thrust faults along the southeastern margin of Nansha Trough, which composed imbricated overthrust nappe ...

Conditions for thrust faulting in a glacier [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2010
Dipping, arcuate bands of debris‐rich ice outcropping near the margins of glaciers are often interpreted as thrust faults, assumed to originate in zones of longitudinal compression. Identification of thrusts is typically based either on the geometry and sedimentology of the debris bands or on the crystal fabric of surrounding ice, but the physical ...

Interactions between thin- and thick-skinned tectonics at the northwestern front of the Jura fold-and-thrust belt (eastern France) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
International audienceThis study investigates spatial and temporal interactions of thin- and thick-skinned tectonics in a classical foreland setting located at the front of the Jura fold-and-thrust belt in eastern France.

Geological Structure of the Sylmar Basin: Implications for Slip Distribution Along the Santa Susana/Hospital and Mission Hills Fault System in the San Fernando Valley, CA, U.S.A.

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
We developed a forward model using the Trishear module in MOVE to better understand the structure of the northwestern San Fernando Valley and the relationship among the Santa Susana, Hospital, Mission Hills and Northridge Hills faults.
