Grooved terrain on Ganymede consists of distinct areas of parallel to subparallel ridges and troughs at a variety of spatial scales. Grooved terrain has been interpreted as the product of tectonism in the form of fault-accommodated distributed lithos

We study the effects of planform dome shape on fault patterns developing with and without concurrent regional extension oriented oblique to the long axis of the dome. The motivation was the need to understand fault and fracture patterns in two adjace

Dry sand and wet clay are the most frequently used materials for physical modeling of brittle deformation. We present a series of experiments that shows when the two materials can be used interchangeably, document the differences in deformation patte

Large normal faults are corrugated. Corrugations appear to form from overlapping or en echelon fault arrays by two breakthrough mechanisms: lateral propagation of curved fault-tips and linkage by connecting faults. Both mechanisms include localized f

Traditional models describe pull-apart basins as graben or half-graben basins with normal or normal-oblique slip master faults, analogous to Death Valley, California. Yet many pull-aparts are characterized by asymmetric basins with strike-slip master

[1] Field investigations of stratified alluvial deposits suggest that they can give rise to a hierarchy of permeability modes across scales, corresponding to a hierarchy of sedimentary unit types and thus may lead to enhanced plume spread in such med

[1] Pit craters are circular to elliptical depressions found in alignments (chains), which in many cases coalesce into linear troughs. They are common on the surface of Mars and similar to features observed on Earth and other terrestrial bodies. Pit

Normal faults commonly develop in two oppositely dipping sets having dihedral angles of around 60o, collectively referred to as conjugate normal faults. Conjugate normal faults form at a range of scales from cm to km. Where conjugate normal faults cr

Pit crater chains that are parallel or collinear with normal faults are common on Mars, but only rarely observed on Earth. We explore the origin of pit crater chains using recent high-resolution imagery from Mars, laboratory simulation of pit chains,
