Neogene tectonic and structural evolution of the Timor Sea region, NW Australia

Neogene tectonic and structural evolution of the Timor Sea region, NW Australia

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: M. Keep, M. Clough & L. Langhi
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2002

 

Abstract:

Neogene deformation styles in the Timor Sea vary from flexure-dominated in the NE to transtension-dominated towards the SW. Neogene fanlts generally preserve overall normal displacement despite sometimes complex reactivation histories. Controls on fa...

The Tectonic Stress Field in Eastern Australia

The Tectonic Stress Field in Eastern Australia

Publication Name: Eastern Australian Basins Symposium 2001
Authors: S. Zhao and R.D. M?ller
Reference Type: Magazine Article
Date Published: November 2001

 

Abstract:

Flexural analysis of geological structures in eastern Australia, based on gravity and topographic data, suggests that the flexural rigidity of the fold belts is about 3.6 - 4.4 x 1022 Nm. This corresponds to an effective elastic thickness of 16 - 17 ...

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: Falih M. Daim and Paul G. Lennox
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 1998

 

Abstract:

Continental-scale lineaments, including the configuration of the sedimentary basins, show that Australia is subdivided by master west-northwesttrending transcurrent faults, which have been active intermittently since the Proterozoic. Differential mob...
