DOI: 10.1002/2017jb014074
Abstract: We present coupled, critical state, geomechanical-fluid flow simulations of the evolution of a fold-and-thrust belt in NW Borneo. Our modelling is the first to include the effects of both syntectonic sedimentation and transient pore pressure… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/2017tc004476
Abstract: Oblique plate convergence is common, but it is not clear how the obliquity is achieved by continental fold-and-thrust belts. We address this problem in the Qilian Shan, northeastern Tibetan Plateau, using fieldwork observations, geomorphic analysis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00531-020-01847-3
Abstract: The outer Fuegian fold and thrust belt is the deformed sector of the Austral-Magallanes Basin, which underwent a contractional phase since the Late Cretaceous and a strike-slip phase during the Neogene. The area hosts two… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11430-017-9175-3
Abstract: The timing of the “Yanshanian Movement” and the tectonic setting that controlled the Yanshan fold-and-thrust belt during Jurassic time in China are still matters of controversy. Sediments that filled the intramontane basins in the Yanshan… read more here.
