We use analogue modelling to investigate the response of compressional deformation
superimposed on an extensional basin with along-strike changes in width. Parameters …

In order to further understand the controls on the structural configuration of inverted basins,
previous research has vastly explored the role of rift-stage stress field variations on the …

Compressional inversion of former extensional sedimentary basins is a particularly common
phenomenon, given that passive margins share the same destiny of being subsequently …

Sand-box experiments were designed to reproduce the effect of sedimentation during
extensional basin development and tectonic inversion. These experiments were motivated …

'Inversion structures'(eg folds, reverse faults) spatially associated with basin-bounding faults
are very widely recognised in rift basins in both onshore and offshore settings worldwide …

This volume presents recent work on basin inversion and the causes and effects of inversion
tectonics, the increasing recognition and importance of which are highlighted by examples …

Basin inversion involves the reversal of subsidence in a basin due to compressional tectonic
forces, leading to uplift of the basin's sedimentary infill. A thorough understanding of basin …

Abstract The Aguilón Subbasin (NE Spain) was originated during the Late Jurassic–Early
Cretaceous rifting due to the action of large normal faults, probably inherited from Late …

The 6th International Symposium on Andean Geodynamics (ISAG) was held in Barcelona on
September 12–14, 2005. Like previous editions, it provided an opportunity to some 250 …

The southern Andes between 33° and 45° S latitude are characterized by a series of
complex basins that spanned the contemporaneous active continental margin, which itself …
