The Saltville thrust: investigation of a regional thrust fault in a foreland fold and thrust belt

Thin-skinned models of deformation are currently accepted for the southern Appalachians. The mechanics of this type of deformation are not well understood. The Saltville thrust, a major overthrust in the southern Appalachians, was investigated with respect to deformation mechanics. Thrust terminatio...
