Footwall Geology and Deformation at Flip‐Flop Mid‐Ocean Ridge Detachment Faults: 64°35′E Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR)
Abstract Using bathymetry and ROV dives, we investigate two successive flip‐flop detachment faults (D1 active, D2 older) in the near‐amagmatic 64°35′E region of the SWIR. Kilometer‐sized benches on the upper slopes of D1 footwall form the D1 degraded breakaway. Scarps at the top expose the D2 fault...
