Talk:Magmatism along strike-slip faults

Peer feedback from Morris
Hi Jasmine,

Nice piece of work and interesting contents! Some comments here:

1.     Good introduction. It may be more relatable to first introduce magmatism then strike-slip faults and give examples, so that readers can follow the contents easily.

2.     Some terms and casual relationships might be easily understood by geologists but not the general readers. More explanations can be provided, e.g. how activation energy can be overstepped in relation to transpression then melting mechanisms.

3.     For better illustration, perhaps one more example other than the Dead Sea Transform Fault can be provided.

Good luck!

Cheers,

Morris

1. May consider putting the paragraph of Activation energy at the beginning of that section, or follow the previous paragraph about compressional melting.

2. "Strain partitioning" may need further explanation for better understanding, maybe add some texts or upgrade the figure in that section. The arrows in that figure can be annotated as well.

3. Figures talking about the global examples look legit. Great effort! For the DSTF figure, is there any implications given by the cross section?

Hi Jasmine,

I really like your wiki page! It's short but informative. Here are some comments for making this page even better:


 * 1) Good use of figures to illustrate transpression and transtension system. It may be better to also add some figures to demonstrate how the magma originated from these systems.
 * 2) Detailed explanation of the stress regimes is given, like the orientation of σ2. But this terminology may not be familiar with general audience, as they may not know the three principal stresses.
 * 3) Good use of the Dead Sea Transform Fault as an example! It might be beneficial to incorporate an additional example which may offer a broader context and further reinforce the concepts being discussed.

Good job!

Cheers,

 * The figures in the page can be larger as people normally won't click to enlarge the picture while reading the page.
 * It's great to see you have added more examples. Perhaps you also add some figures to illustrate the second example which is the The East Pacific Rise and San Andreas.
 * May add a section on the importance of studying Magmatism along strike-slip faults.

Comments from Louis

 * 1) Consider give a definition directly related to your topic (i.e. Magmatism Along Strike-Slip Faults is ...) instead of breaking it into two parts. This may allow you to stress on your topic, rather than bring two concept into one.
 * 2) Try to break down the second paragraph into smaller parts since there are a lot of information. Maybe using sub-heading could help improve the clarity.
 * 3) Perhaps you should clarify some of the technical term like σ2. You may want to include a section to slightly introduce the concept of stress field so that your readers may have better understanding of your topic.

Good effort overall!
 * 1) Maybe you should explain what is strain-partitioned strike-slip faults, an explanation with graphics may help.
 * 2) Perhasp you should add a section briefly explaining the mechanism of partial melting (i.e. flux melting, decompression, etc.) and link it back to the main page (partial melting). This could help readers better understand the association between partial melting and transpressional and transtentional tectonic settings.
 * 3) If possible, you may consider adding figures and graphics to the "types of strike-slip settings" section and each example.

Feedback from Tony
1. Diagrams can be shown to demonstrate transpression.

2. More examples on magmatism of strike slip faults can be added. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngeo21*gnik (talk • contribs) 02:53, 25 October 2023 (UTC)

2nd Feedback

1. The figures can be enlarged in general, especially the one showing the generation of magma at strike-slip faults.

2. Activation energy can be demonstrated better with a diagram. (I mean the energy curve that I may have seen before.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngeo21*gnik (talk • contribs) 17:34, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
