Vertical axis rotations in fold and thrust belts: comparison of AMS and paleomagnetic data in the Western External Sierras (Southern Pyrenees)

Geometry and kinematics of fold-and-thrust belts can be complex settings when oblique structures and vertical-axis rotations (VAR) take place during thrust emplacement. Many techniques can be used to unravel such complex tectonic histories, from classic ones like strain analysis and changes of paleo...

Many techniques can be used to unravel such complex tectonic histories, from classic ones like strain analysis and changes of paleocurrents, to more modern approaches such as paleomagnetism and calcite twin analysis. In this paper, anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility is compared to vertical axis rotations deduced from paleomagnetic data along three cross-sections in the External Sierras and the Jaca Basin (southwestern Pyrenees).

Therefore, the difference with the paleomagnetic reference is the local VAR.

Deviations in magnetic lineation with respect to the expected local magnetic lineation permit vertical axis rotations to be quantified using the AMS dataset. The combined analysis of paleomagnetic and AMS data enables: 1) a quicker comparison of the kinematic evolution in areas with similar AMS patterns; 2) the identification of anomalous orientations of magnetic lineation linked to VARs; and 3) the use of AMS analysis as a homogeneity test for VARs determined from other techniques. AMS is proposed as a suitable preliminary technique to select further sites for paleomagnetic analysis since paleomagnetic laboratory procedures are much more time-consuming than AMS measurements, AMS does not usually modify sample remanence and hence samples can be used for both types of analysis.Grupo GeoTransfer, Universidad de Zaragoza, EspañaUnidad de Zaragoza, Instituto Geológico y Minero de España, EspañaElsevierUniversidad de ZaragozaMinisterio de Ciencia e Innovación (España)Gobierno de Aragón202220222012info:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501http://hdl.handle.net/10261/276922https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tecto.2012.01.023reponame:DIGITAL.CSIC.
