3 styles of thrust related folds

fault bend fold

fault propagation fold

detachment fold

example of ramp flat geometry

niger delta

source of compressional examples

bude/kilve

fault propagation fold:

as cut off angle decreases....

front limb dips increase

fold wavelength increases

fold amplitude decreases

tri shear is a variation of what fold style

fault propagation fold

Trishear example

Tarim basin, China

relative indicator of rate of deformation rate

growth stratigraphy

if one fold in a train amplifies faster what will happen?

strain will be transferred onto that fold, others will fold down/stop
