Example text
The term “upthrown” block gives a false impression: it is “up” only relative to the downthrown block. These conclusions are supported also by field observations because the downthrown block of one growth fault is commonly the upthrown block of another (Fig. 2-3). We can go further. The quantity of sediment on the sea floor in the area of a growth fault was clearly approximately the same on each side of the fault, but more accumulated on one side than the other. Therefore the supply of sediment exceeded the capacity of the upthrown block to accumulate it (because more accumulated in the downthrown block).
GROWTH ANTICLINES Growth anticlines are anticlines in which the thicknesses of rock units are greater on the flanks than on the crest (Fig. 2-6). These thickness changes Fig. 2-6. Diagrammatic cross-section through growth anticline. 35 result in a steepening of the flanks with depth - or, more properly, they result from a steepening of the flanks with depth, but the causes will be considered later in the book. Isopach maps over growth anticlines may be viewed as structural contour maps on the bottom of the isopached interval below the top of the interval as datum.
