K.R. McClay Department of Geology, Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London, Egham, Surrey, England TW20 OEX. Since the first Thrust and Nappe Tectonics Conference in London in 1979 (McClay & Price 1981), and the Toulouse Meeting on Thrusting and Deformation in 1984 (Platt et al. 1986) there have been considerable advances in the study of thrust systems incorporating new field observations, conceptual models, mechanical models, analogue and numerical simulations, together with geophysical studies of thrust belts. Thrust Tectonics 1990 was an International Conference convened by the editor and held at Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London, Egham Surrey, from April 4th until April 7th 1990. There were one hundred and seventy participants from all continents except South America. The conference was generously sponsored by Brasoil U.K. Limited, BP Exploration, Chevron U.K. Limited, Clyde Petroleum, Enterprise Oil, Esso Exploration and Production UK Limited, and Shell U.K. Exploration and Production. One hundred and five contributions were presented at the meeting, - seventy six oral presentations (together with poster displays) and an additional twenty nine posters without oral presentation (McClay 1990, conference abstract volume).

This dissertation examines three-dimensional kinematics and geometries associated with the development of thrust-related folds. First, the complex relationship between fold geometry and along-strike changes in fault displacement and fault shape was considered by extending equations describing conventional two-dimensional folding models into the third dimension. Graphs of these equations predict relationships between fold axial-surface angles in map view and fault-ramp dip and fault displacement in cross section. Differences in model structure-contour map patterns are sufficient to distinguish between model fold types. Second, the along-strike geometrical changes of a blind duplex in the frontal Ouachita fold-thrust belt, Oklahoma were studied. Subsurface mapping based on interpretations of seismic-reflection and well data indicates that the duplex is substantially larger than previously thought. Changes in three-dimensional geometry of folds associated with this duplex occur due to modification by lateral and oblique fault ramps and a tear fault. The spatial rate of change in displacement based on interpretations from this duplex and other non-metamorphic fold-thrust belts is expressed by ($Psi$), the angle of differential transport. I find that a value of $Psi$ = 32$spcirc$ is the empirical limit of differential transport a non-metamorphic thrust sheet can accommodate before it loses coherency and becomes segmented by tear faults. Third, computerized tomographic (CT) images through sand models were used to investigate strain patterns that form in response to movement over oblique fault ramps. Map-view deflections of initially straight marker lines within sand layers suggest that layers truncated by the right-stepping oblique ramp systematically deflect counter-clockwise, whereas marker lines in overlying layers radially diverge from the model center. These differences in displacement most likely reflect variations in vertical stress and imply that actual thrust sheets may display different displacement trajectories depending on vertical position within the thrust sheet. In support of this concept, a model describing the maximum shear stress vector on an oblique fault ramp illustrates a similar depth dependence.

An examination of ancient and contemporary submarine landslides and their impact Landslides are common in every subaqueous geodynamic context, from passive and active continental margins to oceanic and continental intraplate settings. They pose significant threats to both offshore and coastal areas due to their frequency, dimensions, and terminal velocity, capacity to travel great distances, and ability to generate potentially destructive tsunamis. Submarine Landslides: Subaqueous Mass Transport Deposits from Outcrops to Seismic Profiles examines the mechanisms, characteristics, and impacts of submarine landslides. Volume highlights include: Use of different methodological approaches, from geophysics to field-based geology Data on submarine landslide deposits at various scales Worldwide collection of case studies from on- and off-shore Potential risks to human society and infrastructure Impacts on the hydrosphere, atmosphere, and lithosphere

Fold-and-thrust belts occur worldwide, have formed in all eras of geological time, and are widely recognized as the most common mode in which the crust accommodates shortening. Much current research on the structure of fold-and-thrust belts is focused on structural studies of regions or individual structures and on the geometry and evolution of these regions employing kinematic, mechanical and experimental modelling. In keeping with the main trends of current research, this title is devoted to the kinematic evolution and structural styles of a number of fold-and-thrust belts formed from palaeozoic to recent times. The papers included in this book cover a broad range of different topics, from modelling approaches to predict internal deformation of single structures, 3D reconstructions to decipher the structural evolution of groups of structures, palaeomagnetic studies of portions of fold-and-thrust belts, geometrical and kinematical aspects of Coulomb thrust wedges and structural analyses of fold-and-thrust belts to unravel their sequence of deformations--

This book brings together the key papers from the recent Thrust Tectonics Conference held at Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London, and is grouped into thematic sections. It covers the most recent multidisciplinary research and theories in a clear, concise manner. Topics covered include theory and mechanics of thrust faulting, numerical modelling, analogue modelling, geometrics of thrust systems and thrust related folding, and field based studies of the Pyrenees, the Alps, the Himalayas and the NW American Cordillera.
