Multi-timescale mechanics of an active low-angle normal fault
Detachment faults dipping < 30° commonly accrue 10’s of kms of offset and accommodate a large portion of crustal extension in moderately-to-highly extended regions. Slip on these high-offset low-angle normal faults remains perplexing due to their apparent misorientation relative to Andersonian …

The roof of the cyclades : a structural, stratigraphic, and paleomagnetic study of Neogene extensional tectonics in Central Greece
… subducting slab. I document a newly-described low-angle normal fault, termed the Octonii Detachment, that accommodated NE-SW directed crustal extension and controlled the pattern of sedimentation within the Early to Middle Miocene Kymi-Aliveri basin. I date the basin fill using a combination of …

Tectonic Setting, Structure, and Seismic Stratigraphy of the Apalachicola Rift and its Overlying Sag Basin in the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico
… half-grabens; or 2) as layered, volcanic flows ("seaward-dipping reflectors") erupted during GOM phase 1 rifting of late Triassic- early Jurassic age. My study uses a 35,000 km grid of 2D, pre-stack depth-migrated, industry seismic reflection data, tied to five wells in the overlying sag …
