This research derives paleostress tensors for deformation affecting late Cretaceous rocks between Amman and Al-Hallabat, northern Jordan reconstructs the region's tectonic history. Three distinct formations are exposed in investigated area: Wadi As Sir (Turonian), Umm Ghudran (Santonin), silicified limestone (Campanian). The stress inversion is derived from data collected on fault-slip at four ...

Abstract Brittle structures identified within the largest karstic cave of Sudetes (the Niedźwiedzia Cave) were studied to reconstruct paleostress driving post-Variscan tectonic activity in NE Bohemian Massif. Individual fault population datasets, including local strike and dip planes, striations, Riedel shear, enabled us discuss orientation principal stresses tensor. The (meso) fault-slip data ...
