This Special Publication is an outgrowth of a Research Symposium held at the 1984 joint meeting of SEPM and AAPG in San Antonio, Texas. In recent years a significant body of new geological and geophysical data on strike-slip basins had been acquired, and there had been significant progress in understanding the mechanisms by which basins form and deform in strike-slip settings. This volume emphasizes the relations between deformation patterns along strike-slip faults, the mechanisms by which basins form and the configuration of sedimentary facies within such basins.
