DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2019.04.002
Abstract: Abstract Layer-bound, polygonal fault systems (PFS) in marine, fine-grained sediments have been documented with seismic data over large areas in over 100 basins. The questions of how, when and how fast these muds broke without… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2017.05.004
Abstract: Abstract Digital outcrop models help to constrain the interactions of stratigraphic and structural heterogeneity on ancient depositional systems. This study uses a stochastic approach that incorporates stratigraphic and structural modeling to interrogate the three-dimensional morphology… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s001675682510023x
Abstract: Abstract Investigating magmatic processes in exhumed lower continental crust is often complicated by metamorphic and tectonic overprints postdating magma emplacement. To decrypt these requires integrated structural and petrological analyses at multiple scales. This study provides… read more here.

DOI: 10.1306/0627171614817020
Abstract: This study describes the sedimentology and stratigraphy of the Devonian–Mississippian Sappington Formation in exceptional outcrop exposures in southwestern Montana. The goal was to assess the extent to which these outcrops could be used to define… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/essd-16-985-2024
Abstract: Abstract. Structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry has become an important tool for the digitalisation of outcrops as digital outcrop models (DOMs). DOMs facilitate the mapping of stratigraphy and discontinuous structures like folds, faults, and fractures from the… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/se-16-1351-2025
Abstract: Abstract. Mesoscale fractures, with lengths between meters and tens of meters, cannot be effectively characterized in the subsurface, due to limitations of borehole and geophysical datasets. On the other hand, large quantitative structural datasets can… read more here.
