“…Regardless, extension of the fold limb is considered to have occurred during the early stages of folding by the migration of layers through the fold hinge (Mitra, ), which is consistent with the modeling results. Fourth, our focus on the 3D trishear geometry means that all of the models were based on a fault‐propagation folding style, even though previous studies have reported three end‐members (i.e., fault‐bend folding, fault‐propagation folding, and detachment folding) and note that these folding mechanisms may change over time (e.g., Apotria & Wilkerson, ; Bernard et al, ; Dixon & Liu, ; Mitra, ; Storti & Poblet, ; Watkins et al, ; Yan et al, ). Fifth, many studies have identified that the 3D geometry can vary along strike due to the presence of displacement gradients, as well as differences in the geometry of the fault plane and end‐member models (Apotria & Wilkerson, ; Wilkerson et al, , ).…”
