Exercises
9.7.1
SCAT Analysis of the Sequatchie Anticline
Use the data in Table 9.1 to perform a complete SCAT analysis on the dip traverse across
the Sequatchie anticline. Plot the azimuth-distance and the dip-distance diagrams. What
are the
T
and
L
directions? What are the dip components in the
T
and
L
directions?
Plot them on the dip-component diagrams.
9.7.2
SCAT Analysis of Bald Hill Structure
Use the data in Table 9.3 to perform a complete SCAT analysis on the dip traverse across
the Bald Hill structure to see if a fault is present and its location and orientation, given
that the faults in the area are reverse.
9.7.3
SCAT Analysis of Greasy Cove Anticline
Perform a complete SCAT analysis on the Greasy Cove anticline (Table 9.4). Consider both
fold and fault geometry. The anticline is part of the southern Appalachian fold-thrust belt.
