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

Abstract The Himalayan Orogen consists of two rock packages that parallel the topographic
trend of the mountain belt between the eastern and western syntaxes. To avoid confusion …

Subduction initiation is a critical link in the plate tectonic cycle. Intraoceanic subduction
zones can form along transform faults and fracture zones, but how subduction nucleates …

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 …

Common basin models assume that the post‐rift tectonic evolution of most basins is usually
associated with tectonic quiescence. However, tectonic inversion during the post‐rift phase …

How the present-day northern Tibetan Plateau was involved in the plateau formation
process in context of the Cenozoic India–Eurasia collision has been disputed for decades …

Observations in sedimentary basins affected by deformation show that the fault-induced
depositional accommodation, at various spatial and temporal scales, is closely linked to …

Inverted structures provide traps for petroleum exploration, typically four-way structural
closures. As to the degree of inversion, based on a large number of worldwide examples …

It is generally accepted that the subduction polarity reversal (SPR) results from the strong
collision of two plates. Yet, the SPR of the Solomon Back‐arc Basin is started in the “soft …

Polyphase deformation of continental crust is analysed through physical analogue models
for settings wherein platform–basin geometries at passive continental margins are subject to …
