Enceladus_block_rotation

• Tectonic activity at Enceladus’ south pole is consistent with clockwise block rotation tectonics. • Regional right-lateral strike-slip kinematics induces transtensional and transpressional regimes in the south polar region. • Evolutionary tectonic model is proposed for the past, present and future...

Description
Summary:• Tectonic activity at Enceladus’ south pole is consistent with clockwise block rotation tectonics. • Regional right-lateral strike-slip kinematics induces transtensional and transpressional regimes in the south polar region. • Evolutionary tectonic model is proposed for the past, present and future setting of 17 Enceladus south pole structures.
