This research compiles timing data and thrust characteristics in fold-and-thrust belts, suggesting new models of thrusting activity and dynamics.

Thrusting patterns provide insights into fold-and-thrust belt evolution over time and varied geologies.
The study integrates stratigraphic, thermochronological, and radiometric data from ten distinct fold-and-thrust belts.
The analysis reveals the piggy-back propagation style of thrust activity, indicating complex geological interactions.
Results support a refined model of synchronous thrust activity, contributing to broader geological understanding.

Curzi et al. (2025) studied this question.
