The thin-skin Sevier and thick-skin Laramide belts of the North American Cordillera provide
a long-term record of the interrelations between evolving styles of mountain building and …

The formation of major exhumed strike-slip faults represents one of the most important
dynamic processes affecting the evolution of the Earth's lithosphere. Detailed models of the …

SUMMARY The East Anatolian Fault (EAF) is a 700-km-long left-lateral transform fault
located between the Anatolian and Arabian plates. The proximity of the Euler Pole to the …

The Alborz range, northern Iran, deforms by strain partitioning of oblique shortening onto
range-parallel left-lateral strike-slip and thrust faults. Deformation is due to the north–south …

The Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone of western Iran is a metamorphic belt (greenschist–amphibolite)
that was uplifted during Late Cretaceous continental collision between the Afro-Arabian …

One of the remarkable tectonic features of the Earth's crust is the widespread presence of
long, approximately straight and geomorphically prominent strike-slip faults which are a …

The Tertiary rift basins of Thailand have been previously interpreted in terms of strike-slip
faulting. However, many of the trends oblique to the N–S orientation of the rift system appear …

This contribution emphasizes first-order structural and metamorphic characters of
Precambrian accretionary orogens to understand the kinematics and thermomechanical …

This study provides an in situ geological perspective on fabrics produced by
synconvergence lateral crustal flow of hot orogens. It is based on the example of the …

Multi-sensor satellite imagery data promote fast, cost-efficient regional geological mapping
that constantly forms a criterion for successful gold exploration programs in harsh and …
