DOI: 10.1002/2017tc004498
Abstract: Low-angle detachment fault systems are important elements of oblique-divergent plate boundaries, yet the role detachment faulting plays in development of such boundaries is poorly understood. The west Salton detachment fault (WSDF) is a major low-angle… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.epsl.2020.116374
Abstract: Abstract In clastic detritus derived from the erosion of young active orogens, the geologic interpretation of apatite fission-track (AFT) data is hampered by the occurrence of grains without spontaneous tracks and by contributions from multiple… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.gloplacha.2021.103457
Abstract: Abstract The exhumation mechanism of orogens showing one structural vergence, or single-sided orogens, is still not fully understood due to their common transition from periods of high convergence to slab retreat. The overprinting of inherited… read more here.
