map-view trajectory of bedding orientation (Fig. 6 ). A distinctive jointing (Fig. 4 ) is
well developed in these areas of folding, and oriented roughly axial planar to the folds.
In contrast with Dive 1056, Dive 1057 transected the hinge area of a synformal
fold during most of the southern portion of its dive-track, with strata to the east and
west of the track dipping towards one another (Fig. 7 , south of sample sites 1R1
and 2R2). Within the central portion of the dive track containing the overturned,
imbricate thrust sheets discussed above, bedding is oriented in a more east-westerly

the map scale in the north, and at the outcrop scale near sample sites 2R2 and 1R1
