Our understanding of folds and folding builds on detailed geometrical analysis. Proper
description of folds and their relation to other structures such as fractures, cleavage and …

Aesthetically appealing thrust systems and related large-scale anticlines, in both active and
fossil foreland fold-and-thrust belts, and the economic potential associated with them, have …

Broken foreland basins are caused by crustal-scale contractional basement structures that
compartmentalize (or break) a contiguous retroarc or collisional foreland basin into smaller …

Based on a review of published literature and on the report of a few case studies, this paper
summarizes the state of the art on paleostress determinations by fault slip data inversions …

We report U-Pb absolute ages of calcite cements from a diffuse vein network documented in
the Bighorn Basin (Wyoming, USA), where distinct systematic vein sets developed at the …

Orogenic forelands host interactions between deformation and static or migrating fluids.
Given their accessibility and dimensions, these areas are not only historic landmarks for …

A multidisciplinary approach has been applied to characterize the Madison Formation in the
Sheep Mountain anticline at different scales, in order to illustrate the relationship between …

This study integrates field structural data, petrographic and geochemical (δ 18 O, δ 13 C, Δ
47, 87 Sr/86 Sr, and elemental composition) analyses and U–Pb dating of calcite veins …

Pre-/early folding fracture patterns were recognized in several anticlines from three structural
domains in the Simply Folded Belt of the Fars arc. These fracture sets were characterized in …

Varying patterns of layer-parallel shortening (LPS) and vertical-axis rotations from the thin-
skin Sevier fold-thrust belt to the thick-skin Laramide foreland of Wyoming are quantified …
