Global Evidence for Off‐Axis Flexural Modification of Abyssal Hill Faults at Mid‐Ocean Ridges

Young oceanic lithosphere flexes as axial topography decays across mid‐ocean ridge shoulders, yet this deformation has been quantified at only a few segments, leaving its global expression poorly constrained. We analyzed 50 across‐axis bathymetric profiles from 21 regions spanning slow to fast spreading rates, identifi...

Elevated fluid pressure in compression facilitates flexural reverse faulting

Elastic flexure of tectonic plates shapes large-scale topographic features and can induce notable slip on lithosphere-scale faults. At mid-ocean ridges, recent evidence shows that up to 50% of extensional fault offsets formed within axial valleys can be reversed by compressional slip across valley flanks. While standar...
