Displacement Partioning in Volcanic Arcs: Attu Island, Aleutians

9506389 AveLallement这项对阿留申火山弧中阿图岛构造活动区的实地研究将收集关于最近活动的脆性断层群的详细数据。目的是确定阿留申弧斜向会聚如何划分为走滑、逆冲和伸展断层。这一研究成果将大大提高我们对斜向碰撞造山带的认识，并有助于了解活动的板块-边界构造过程。

9506389 AveLallement This field-based study of the tectonically active area of Attu island in the Aleutian volcanic arc will collect detailed data on recently active brittle fault populations. The goal is to determine how to known oblique convergence across the Aleutian arc is partitioned into strike slip, thrust and extensional faults. The results of this study will significantly improve our understanding of oblique collisional orogens, and will aid in the understanding of active plate-boundary tectonic processes.
