Holdsworth, R., Tavarnelli, E., & Clegg, P. (2002). The nature and regional significance of structures in the Gala Group of the Southern Uplands terrane, Berwickshire coast, southeastern Scotland. Geological Magazine, 139(6), 707-717. https://doi.org/10.1017/s0016756802006854

Structures deforming Llandovery turbidites of the Gala Group in the Southern Uplands terrane are spectacularly exposed in the Berwickshire coastal section, southeastern Scotland. The upward-facing, upright to NW-vergent folds and associated structure...

Domainal deformation patterns and strain partitioning during transpression: an example from the Southern Uplands terrane, Scotland (2002)
Journal Article
Holdsworth, R., Tavarnelli, E., Clegg, P., Pinheiro, R., Jones, R., & McCaffrey, K. (2002). Domainal deformation patterns and strain partitioning during transpression: an example from the Southern Uplands terrane, Scotland.

The partitioning of deformation into wrench- and contraction-dominated deformation domains is a widely reported but poorly described phenomenon in ancient transpression zones. This paper documents spectacularly exposed examples of such partitioning f...
