Scope and Contents
Contents
Structures formed during ancient tectonic events are commonly reactivated during subsequent tectonism. Numerical models point to mechanical anisotropy arising from the inherited orientation of crystals of the mineral olivine in the lithospheric mantle as the cause of this behaviour.
Reactivation of structures inherited from previous collisional...
