Finding faults - in layered rocks
Faults are important tectonic structures, yet forecasting their structure in the subsurface is pretty uncertain. Follow Rob as he visits two outcrop sites to investigate how contrasting strata can fault in different ways - and why appreciating this variability is important for geological interpretation. This film is part of a series on tectonic structures and geology, hosted on The Shear Zone Channel. #tectonics #geology #structuralgeology #faults #faulting
