Fig. 7: Different thickness of sediments on both sides of the fault, indicating significant right-lateral strike-slip displacement.
From: Spatial segmentation of Jiali Fault’s Holocene activity in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau
a Variations in the thickness of sedimentary deposits at the edges of debris flow fans, without displacement; b: normal fault, which does not alter the thickness of sediments on either side of the fault plane; c only when right-lateral strike-slip displacement occurs can it lead to a reduction in the thickness of the downwards-thrown unit P while simultaneously increasing the thicknesses of units S and D1. Tp represents the thickness of unit P, Ts represents the thickness of unit S, and TD1 represents the thickness of unit D1.
