Many of the world's continents are bounded or traversed by vast fault networks that move laterally, like the well-known San Andreas Fault. As well as being major tectonic features of the Earth's surface, these strike-slip regimes are vitally important to the world's natural resources - petroleum, water, and geothermal energy. This book covers all aspects of these regimes; how they initiate; how they develop; and the natural resources associated with them. Numerous global case studies illustrate structural development, thermal and fluid flow implications, and commercial applicability. No other…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Many of the world's continents are bounded or traversed by vast fault networks that move laterally, like the well-known San Andreas Fault. As well as being major tectonic features of the Earth's surface, these strike-slip regimes are vitally important to the world's natural resources - petroleum, water, and geothermal energy. This book covers all aspects of these regimes; how they initiate; how they develop; and the natural resources associated with them. Numerous global case studies illustrate structural development, thermal and fluid flow implications, and commercial applicability. No other book provides such a comprehensive overview of these settings, and this volume will stand as a critical reference of the state of knowledge of strike-slip terrains and transform margins. It will be invaluable for a broad range of readers, from advanced students of geology and researchers specializing in strike-slip regimes to geoscientists and managers involved in natural resources and energy solutions.
Autorenporträt
Michal Nem¿ok was a research professor at the Energy and Geoscience Institute of the University of Utah, USA for twenty-two years, until 2022. Now he runs his own company, RM Geology, and has a part-time position in the Faculty of Mining and Geology at the Technical University Ostrava, Czech Republic. He is the co-author of Thrustbelts: Structural Architecture, Thermal Regimes and Petroleum Systems (2005, Cambridge University Press) and author of Rifts and Passive Margins: Structural Architecture, Thermal Regimes, and Petroleum Systems (2016, Cambridge University Press).
