Shear Zone Mapping

Shear Zone Mapping is a structural geological method that identifies and characterizes localized zones of intense ductile to brittle deformation within the Earth's crust, distinguished by systematic analysis of strain distribution, kinematic indicators, and fabric orientations to reconstruct tectonic displacement histories.
