| Abstract |
Geometric attributes such as coherence and volumetric curvature are commonly used in delineating faults and folds. While fault patterns seen in coherence, most-positive curvature and most-negative curvature are easily recognized on time slices, they are often laterally shifted from each other. The kind and degree of lateral shift is an indication of the underlying tectonic deformation. In this tutorial, we document some of these relationships when applied to the structurally-complex section within the Chicontepec Basin, Mexico. |
