Interrogating an along-strike variation in the evolution and rheology of a large continental strike-slip fault zone
WA Sullivan - Journal of Structural Geology, 2024 - Elsevier
Along-strike variations in lithology, temperature, fluid activity, etc. can induce rheological
changes in strike-slip faults that may be recorded by different fault rocks and fabrics. This …
