Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 227. Folded and faulted-rocks of Proterozoic through Permian age record both the sedimentary and tectonic evolution of the central Appalachian fold-and-thrust belt. This trip will focus on the styles of deformation in the major lithotectonic units that have been affected by the multiple accretionary and compressional phases of the Appalachian orogen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outer parts of collision mountain belts are commonly represented by fold and thrust belts. Major advances in understanding these tectonic settings have arisen from regional studies that integrate diverse geological information in quests to find and produce hydrocarbons. Drilling has provided tests of subsurface forecasts, challenging interpretation strategies and structural models. This volume contains 19 papers that illustrate a diversity of methods and approaches together with case studies from Europe, the Middle East and the Asia-Pacific region. Collectively they show that appreciating diversity is key for developing better interpretations of complex geological structures in the subsurface – endeavours that span applications beyond the development of hydrocarbons.

This book was released on 1991-01-08 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Field Trip Guidebooks Series, Volume 166. The Appalachian Orogenic Belt, which extends along the eastern coast of North America from Newfoundland to Alabama is a structural geologist's delight. Geologists divide the mountain belt into several geological provinces each having their own unique set of structures and structural problems. Major provinces include the Appalachian Plateau, the Valley and Ridge, the Blue Ridge, and the Piedmont. The focus of this field trip is the Plateau and the Valley and Ridge where sedimentary rocks show the least indication of metamorphism. During mapping of Paleozoic deformation in these two provinces, the 19th century geologists, H.D. and W.B. Rogers, first realized that there was structural regularity along strike to both asymmetric folds and thrust faults. Although the Rogers brothers' initial observations are still valid, detailed mapping during the subsequent 145 years has shown that several subprovinces of the Appalachian foreland have their own characteristic structures. The purpose of field trip T166 is to examine variation in style of foreland deformation along a strike-parallel traverse of 1200 km from eastern New York to eastern Tennessee. The Appalachians are particularly convenient for such a study of structural style because this mountain belt is exhumed, exposing deep structures which are only detected seismically or in well data in younger belts.

This book was released on 2011 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fold-and-thrust belts occur worldwide, have formed in all eras of geological time, and are widely recognized as the most common mode in which the crust accommodates shortening. Much current research on the structure of fold-and-thrust belts is focused on structural studies of regions or individual structures and on the geometry and evolution of these regions employing kinematic, mechanical and experimental modelling. In keeping with the main trends of current research, this title is devoted to the kinematic evolution and structural styles of a number of fold-and-thrust belts formed from palaeozoic to recent times. The papers included in this book cover a broad range of different topics, from modelling approaches to predict internal deformation of single structures, 3D reconstructions to decipher the structural evolution of groups of structures, palaeomagnetic studies of portions of fold-and-thrust belts, geometrical and kinematical aspects of Coulomb thrust wedges and structural analyses of fold-and-thrust belts to unravel their sequence of deformations--
