Hydrothermal outflow occurs most commonly at the terminations of individual faults and
where multiple faults interact. These areas of fault propagation and interaction are sites of …

Fault slip data commonly are used to infer the orientations and relative magnitudes of either
the principal stresses or the principal strain rates, which are not necessarily parallel or …

Tectonic stress is one of the fundamental data sets in Earth sciences comparable with
topography, gravity, heat flow and others. The importance of stress observations for both …

Stress inversion methods employed by structural geologists for estimating a regional stress
tensor from populations of faults containing slickenlines rely on the basic assumption that …

We describe integrated computer programs for graphical presentation, on-screen selection,
and reduced stress tensor calculation of fault-striae data. The input consists of dip azimuth …

Two major structural events characterize the tectonic evolution of the Northern Calcareous
Alps (NCA):(1) late-Early Cretaceous to Late Eocene NW-directed, dextral-transpressional …

The Chachil depocenter is located in the Andean foreland, at∼ 39° S. Its origin relates to the
syn-rift phase of the Neuquén Basin, a large marine embayment developed along the …

The regional pattern of contraction and extension directions and the evolution of the strain
field from Paleogene to Neogene times enabled a reconstruction of the migration path of the …

The Escondida porphyry copper deposit, located in northern Chile, was one of the two
largest copper producers of the world in the 1990s. The hydrothermal evolution of this …

Integrated study on the stratigraphic and structural features of the Söke Basin on the western
end of the Büyük Menderes Graben, Western Anatolia, has indicated that the tectonic …
