...Fig. 7. Multichannel seismic section (TWT) across the Nazaré Fault Zone showing the overall geometry of growth strata within the fault zone, associated with a resilient transtensional strike-slip fault. Reverse faulting on the northern flank of the Estremadura Spur is associated with Cenozoic...

..., despite the observation that burial of OC deeper in the sediments is remarkably constant at ∼2%. Although the source of the labile material is unknown, we speculate that it may have consisted of marine OM from the upwelling zone that occurs in summer near the head of Nazaré Canyon ( Vitorino et al., 2002...

... and Estremadura Spur deformation fronts between the deep-rooted Nazaré and distal Tagus fault zones. Mesozoic seismic units do not show significant thickness variations, and the lack of a basal decollement and the near-top basement structure suggests predominant thick-skinned tectonics during the Cz compressional...

... ( Luttrell and Sandwell, 2010 ). Offshore fault activity that triggers large canyon-flushing turbidity currents reaching the Tagus and Horseshoe Basins is unlikely to trigger flushing in Nazaré Canyon ( Allin et al., 2016 ). Earthquakes originating from onshore faults near the head of Nazaré Canyon...

... ), and Jimenez-Munt and Negredo ( 2003 ) showed that the maximum compressive stress expected in the area is NNW-SSE with strike-slip fault kinematics for local structures. The model used Nazaré, Bajo-Tajo (the Lower Tagus Valley fault zone in this study), and Messejana faults for Portugal from Ribeiro et al...

... multicomponent acquisition and processing techniques have led to numerous applications for P-S surveys. Uses that have arisen include structural imaging (e.g., “seeing” through gas-bearing sediments, improved fault definition, enhanced near-surface resolution), lithologic estimation (e.g., sand versus shale...

These data show the width of this zone filters the caliber of sediment delivered into deep water, which has significant implications for understanding sediment budgets...
