Interpretation of Potential Fields by Modern Data Processing and 3-dimensional gravity Modeling of the Dead Sea Pull-Apart Basin / Jordan Rift Valley (JRV)
… data delineate the location of the major faults, basins, swells, anticlines, synclines and domes in Jordan. The surface geology of Jordan and the immediate area east of the Rift is dominated by two large basins, the Al-Jafr basin in the south and the Al-Azraq-Wadi as Sirhan basin to the northeast. …

Numerical simulation of selected geologic processes based on Discrete Element Method
… Element Method (DEM), including modeling of pull-apart basin development based on Particle Flow Code (PFC) and simulation of deformation and earthquake potential of Ordos Block (China) under present tectonic stress regime based on Universal Distinct Element Code (UDEC). A scale-independent …

Influência da Zona de Fratura Romanche na evolução tectono-sedimentar do setor central da Margem Equatorial Brasileira
… evolution of the Barreirinhas Basin, located in the central sector of the Brazilian Equatorial Margin and Guina. Based on integrated analysis of five seismic sections and three exploratory well, structures typical of transtensional environments were identified, including normal …

Cenozoic evolution of the Pamir Salient; timing, mechanisms and paleo-environmental impacts : constraints from the Aertashi section, western Tarim Basin
… by the western Kunlun to the south. By 24-22 Ma, basinward expansion of the NW margin of Tibet coincides with the initiation of Pamir indentation. Activation of strike slip faulting, growth strata and exhumation along the Kashgar-Yecheng Transfer System is evidenced in the Aertashi region which …

Detection and Kirchhoff-type migration of seismic events by use of a new characteristic function
… deployed for 9 months around the Tarutung pull-apart Basin were analyzed. The seismic event locations resulting from the diffraction stacking method align along a segment of the Sumatran Fault. A more complex distribution of seismicity is imaged within and around the Tarutung Basin. Two …

Palaeozoic Palaeomagnetism of South-Eastern Australia
… of terrane rotation, arising possibly from a pull-apart basin, may explain the discrepancy between the pole from Mount Daubeny Formation and the X-path. The most significant finding of this study is the widespread terrane rotation. This conclusion is based upon the inability of intermediate …

Tectonics of the Wolf Creek Fault Zone, southern Illinois: A consequence of Late Paleozoic transpression and transtension at the southeastern end of the Ste. Genevieve Fault System
… strike-slip produced an extensional pull-apart zone. Similar episodes of deformation have been found in other continental-interior fault-and-fold zones (e.g., the Cottage Grove Fault System and the Sandwich Fault) in the Illinois Basin. The timing of activity in the WCFZ implies that …
