This study measures the uplift rates of a flight of marine terraces along the Glenafric coastal region of the South Island of New Zealand, which will provide a context for how local fold growth in the North Canterbury fold and thrust belt (NCFTB) contributes to local uplift rates. Several methods were used to measure uplift rate of the marine terraces: 1) collecting shell samples for AAR dating...

The Tian Shan is one of the most active intracontinental orogenic belts in world. It has undergone complex deformation that resulted formation several fold-and-thrust (FTBs) piedmonts and intermontane basins. Investigating histories these FTBs important for understanding tectonic propagation processes Shan. Here, we gain insight into crustal shortening by deciphering Houyanshan structure, a typ...

The central Apennines are a fold-thrust belt currently affected by post-orogenic extensional seismicity. To constrain the influence that inherited thrust-related structures exert on present seismic behavior of belt, we provide high-resolution structural and hydraulic characterization one most external exposed thrust fault systems Apennines, Sibillini Mts. Thrust Front (STF). We integrate mappin...
