Foreland basin systemsA foreland basin system is defined as: (a) an elongate region of potential sediment accommodation that forms on continental crust between a contractional orogenic belt and the adjacent craton, mainly in response to geodynamic processes related to subduction and the resulting peripheral or retroarc fold‐thrust belt; (b) it consists of four discrete depozones, referred to as the ...

The large‐scale dynamics of grain‐size variation in alluvial basins, 1: TheoryABSTRACT We study the interplay of various factors causing vertical grain‐size changes in alluvial basins using a simple coupled model for sediment transport and downstream partitioning of grain sizes. The sediment‐transport model is based on the linear diffusion equation; by deriving this from first principles we show that the main controls on the diffusivity are w... ...

Tectonostratigraphic units and stratigraphic sequences of the nonmarine Songliao basin, northeast ChinaABSTRACT Through tectonostratigraphic analysis of the nonmarine, intracontinental Songliao basin in northeast China, four episodes of deformation are recognized: mantle upwelling, rift, postrift thermal subsidence and structural inversion. The episodes are related to regional geodynamics and plate motions. Each episode is associated with a specific stratigraphic sig... ...

Stratigraphic record and palaeogeographical context of the Neogene basins in the Betic Cordillera, SpainAbstract The Betic Cordillera (Southern Spain) acquired its present configuration during the Neogene. The formation, evolution and total or partial destruction of Neogene sedimentary basins were highly controlled by the geodynamic situations and the positions of the basins in the Betic Cordillera. It is impossible to reconstruct the geometry of basin... ...

Modern and ancient fluvial megafans in the foreland basin system of the central Andes, southern Bolivia: implications for drainage network evolution in fold‐thrust beltsABSTRACT Fluvial megafans chronicle the evolution of large mountainous drainage networks, providing a record of erosional denudation in adjacent mountain belts. An actualistic investigation of the development of fluvial megafans is presented here by comparing active fluvial megafans in the proximal foreland basin of the central Andes to Tertiary foreland‐basin deposi...

Role of fault interactions in controlling synrift sediment dispersal patterns: Miocene, Abu Alaqa Group, Suez Rift, Sinai, EgyptAlthough fault growth is an important control on drainage development in modern rifts, such links are difficult to establish in ancient basins. To understand how the growth and interaction of normal fault segments controls stratigraphic patterns, we investigate the response of a coarse‐grained delta system to evolution of a fault array in a Miocene half‐graben basin, Suez rift. The early M... ...

Vertical versus horizontal motions in the Alpine orogenic wedge: stratigraphic response in the foreland basinAbstract The long‐term (50 Myr) development of orogenic thrust wedges and their neighbouring foreland basins are inextricably linked. Foreland basins, such as occur nonh of the Alps, flanking the Pyrenees, east of the Apennines and south of the Himalayas, are characterized by an early underfilled (deep‐water) phase, followed by a filled (shallow‐marine) or overfille... ...

Rift basins and supradetachment basins: intracontinental extensional end‐membersAbstract Two end‐members characterize a continuum of continental extensional tectonism: rift settings and highly extended terrains. These different styles result in and are recorded by different extensional basins. Intracontinental rifts (e.g. East Africa, Lake Baikal) usually occur in thermally equilibrated crust of normal thickness. Rift settings commonly display ... ...
