Abstract The North Atlantic, extending from the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone to the north
Norway-Greenland-Svalbard margins, is regarded as both a classic case of structural …

East China experienced alternating tectonic extension and compression with ambiguous
tectonic settings in the Mesozoic-Cenozoic interval. Long-term extensional episodes …

Pre-existing structures within crystalline basement may exert a significant influence over the
evolution of rifts. However, the exact manner in which these structures reactivate and thus …

Many rifts develop through multiphase extension; it can be difficult, however, to determine
how strain is distributed during reactivation because structural and stratigraphic evidence …

Abstract The Tan–Lu Fault Zone (TLFZ) is a continental-scale strike–slip fault zone in the
East China that contains rich and significant information about the Mesozoic–Cenozoic …

We investigate the structural style and evolution of a salt-influenced, extensional fault array
in the Egersund Basin (Norwegian North Sea) through analysis of 3D reflection seismic and …

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 …

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 …

Using borehole-constrained 3D reflection seismic data, we analyse the importance of sub-
salt, salt, and supra-salt deformation in controlling the geometries and the kinematics of …
