The Zagros foldbelt–foreland system in SW Iran is a prolific hydrocarbon province with
known reserves of more than 90 billion brl of oil and 800 TCF of natural gas. Establishing the …

The Arabia–Eurasia collision zone in the central part of the Alpine–Himalayan orogenic
system has had a complex deformation history since the Palaeozoic. In Iran, the collision …

Identifying the timing, geometry, mechanism and multiphase reactivation of the inherited
structures on the structural style of the fold-and-thrust belt is important for hydrocarbon …

Understanding the structural evolution of the South Dezful Embayment (SDE) in the Zagros
Fold-and-Thrust Belt (ZFTB) is significant for hydrocarbon exploration and production. The …

Structural decoupling in the Zagros fold‐and‐thrust belt, SW Iran, is controlled by the
presence of intermediate detachment horizons within the Phanerozoic stratigraphic column …

Abstract The Dezful embayment in Zagros has traditionally been interpreted as a typical fold
belt with multiple detachment levels, including a lower detachment at the basement-cover …

Thrust sequences show a range of geometric and kinematic characteristics in cross-sections
and in map view. Two types of thrust sequences are commonly observed in thrust systems …

The Rioni foreland fold-and-thrust belt is part of the Greater Caucasus pro-wedge and is one
of the most important examples of the collision-driven far-field deformation of the Arabia …

Résumé A variety of thin-skinned fold-and-thrust belts are associated with multiple
décollements, which have low frictional basal and intermediate décollements related to …

We investigate the tectonic evolution of the Wetterstein and Mieming mountains in the
western Northern Calcareous Alps (NCA) of the European Eastern Alps. In-sequence NW …
