Determination of present-day crustal deformation along the Kenyan rift system using InSAR by Pius Kipng’etich Kirui, Bjorn Riedel, Markus Gerke

“…Long-wavelength, low-amplitude deformation at the Turkana depression aligned well with the current kinematics of the Kenyan rift system. We find that localized deformations, caused by magmatism and human activity, dominate the south segment of the rift, whereas large-scale low-amplitude deformations dominate the north segment. …”

Fold-Related Faults Track Progressive Fold Development from Layer-Parallel Shortening to Subsequent Orthogonal Extension within an Appalachian Buckle Fold System: Bear Valley Mine,... by Arlo Brandon Weil, Mary Beth Gray, Kylie G. Cush, Mattathias D. Needle, Juliet G. Crider

“…Outstanding three-dimensional exposures of adjacent folds in an abandoned coal mine within the Appalachian Valley-and-Ridge tectonic province permit a detailed analysis of macroscopic strain accommodation by minor faulting in the lead up to and during buckle folding. A kinematic analysis of more than 900 outcrop-scale faults coupled with clearly established relative age relationships allows delineation of distinctive fault sets and their roles in accommodating strain within a quartz-dominated sandstone and an overlying silty shale. …”
