Terra infirma: Understanding salt tectonics
MR Hudec, MPA Jackson - Earth-Science Reviews, 2007 - Elsevier
Following common usage, we broaden the term “salt” to include all rock bodies composed
primarily of halite (NaCl). Salt is mechanically weak and flows like a fluid, even at …

Concepts in halokinetic-sequence deformation and stratigraphy
Halokinetic sequences are unconformity-bound packages of thinned and folded strata
adjacent to passive diapirs. Hook halokinetic sequences have narrow zones of deformation …

Advance of allochthonous salt sheets in passive margins and orogens
MR Hudec, MPA Jackson - AAPG bulletin, 2006 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Allochthonous salt sheets advance in four ways:(1) extrusive advance,(2) open-toed
advance,(3) thrust advance, and (4) salt-wing intrusion. These mechanisms are determined …

Foldbelts with early salt withdrawal and diapirism: Physical model and examples from the northern Gulf of Mexico and the Flinders Ranges, Australia
MG Rowan, BC Vendeville - Marine and Petroleum Geology, 2006 - Elsevier
A physical experiment shows that shortening applied to existing diapirs and minibasins
produces anomalous structural styles that are unlike those of more typical foldbelts. Strong …
