TS3.4 Understanding salt-related deformation: Seismic, field and physical/numerical modelling case studies |
Convener: Oriol Ferrer | Co-Conveners: Janos Urai , Oskar Vidal-Royo |
This session aims at bringing together multidisciplinary researchers and geoscientists interested on salt tectonics, intra-salt deformation and the tectono-sedimentary relationships associated with salt bodies’ emplacement. We welcome contributions using different approaches and techniques to characterize salt-related deformation, from seismic and field case studies to analogue and numerical modelling methodologies or structural restoration. We would like to invite talks and posters including case studies that allow to identify salt deformation in different geological settings (rift basins with and without inversion, fold-and-thrust belts or salt-bearing passive margins).
