Thrust belt curvature: Structural and paleomagnetic analyses in the Catalunyan Pyrenees and Sevier orogen

The question of how curved geologic structures form, from arcuate faults to curvilinear orogenic belts, is one that transcends scale as well as rock properties. Many scale-independent lines of evidence suggest that material within fold-thrust belts is transported in three dimensions. Paleomagnetic a...
