Tectonic vs. climate controls on the evolution of a miocene intermontane basin, Patagonian Andean foreland, Argentina

Miocene deposits in the amazonian foreland basin.

Tectonic control on coarse-grained foreland-basin sequences: An example from the Cordilleran foreland basin, Utah

Figure 1. A: Map of Charleston-Nebo salient and northernmost Book Cliffs showing rock units, thrust faults (dashed where buried), key seismic coverage (gray lines), measured stratigraphic sections (1–7; 8 is location of additional Blackhawk sandstone samples), and wells. Rock units: KTs—Cretaceous–Tertiary strata (North Horn and younger formations), Kmv—Cretaceous Mesaverde Group (Blackhawk, Ca...

Modeling the evolution of the Guadalquivir foreland basin (southern Spain)

[1] Previous quantitative studies dealing with the origin of foreland basins have focused primarily either on the rheological basis of the lithosphere mechanical response or on the relationship between orogenic loading and sediment geometry. To link the evolution of the Guadalquivir foreland basin (South Iberia) with the thermomechanical stratification of the Iberian lithosphere, we combine qua...

Foreland basin stratigraphic control on thrust belt evolution

The link between orogenic activity and foreland basin stratigraphy is well established; however, potential controls by foreland basin stratigraphy on thrust belt architecture have not been fully evaluated. Mechanical properties of typical foreland basin stratigraphic successions influence the structural development of fold-thrust belts in predictable ways. Fundamental features of foreland basin...
