Zusammenfassung
Physical (sandbox) simulations of obliquely convergent accretionary subduction margins show that the cyclicity of accretionary processes imposes a strong control on forearc deformation. Strain partitioning, i.e. the spatial separation of margin-normal and margin-parallel strain, is most dominant while new thrusts are forming at the deformation front. Shortening remains focused at the toe of the wedge, but the margin-parallel component reaches far into the forearc. Faults trending parallel to the trench are dominated by strike-slip motion. The results suggest that the forearc deformation pattern alternates with the characteristic time scale on which new thrust-slices are generated in the accretionary wedge (several 100.000 years).
