| Zhang noted that both sinistral and dextral Pa and Pb elements differed entirely. |
|
| Interlinked systems of predominantly sinistral detachment faults are developed lying parallel to or at low angles to bedding. |
|
| Commonly there is a partitioning of sinistral and dextral criteria on alternate horizons, but horizons occur where both senses coexist. |
|
| It is interesting to speculate why most screw threads are dextral and only a relatively small number are sinistral threads. |
|
| In plan view, several specimens show minor changes in the generally linear orientation with either a sinistral or a dextral turn. |
|
| There are dextral species, sinistral species, and a variable species all within the same genus. |
|
| The latter species has a smooth, valvatiform, dextrally coiled teleoconch and a sinistral, anastrophic protoconch. |
|
| Deposition of the unconformably overlying Red Bay Group was terminated in latest Lochkovian times by renewed sinistral strike-slip faulting. |
|
| The transform fault is represented by the Arakapas fault zone, and would have had a dextral offset and sinistral slip. |
|
| So the spiral of the operculum of a dextral snail is invariably counterclockwise, while that of a sinistral shell is the opposite. |
|
| Limited, but consistent data from mesoscale slip indicators suggest sinistral shear with a minor normal component. |
|
| This paper tentatively identifies two lineaments and a fault that may relate to sinistral strike-slip faulting in the pre-Paradox Formation basement beneath Upheaval Dome. |
|
| Although sinistral individuals are known in many normally dextral species, left-handedness as a characteristic of species is rare in most gastropod clades. |
|
| The temporal distribution of first appearances of sinistral clades as documented by fossils generally differs from that of clades with a labral tooth. |
|
| In conclusion, the geological characteristics of the South China Sea cannot be explained by a pull-apart model involving a releasing bend of a sinistral strike-slip fault. |
|
| This protoconch is discoidal or almost dicoidal and sinistral. |
|
| These gastropods have slender, high-spired, multiwhorled shells bearing a sinistral protoconch and were united by Knight in the family Streptacididae. |
|
| Kinematic indicators for main phase deformation fabrics consistently demonstrate a sinistral sense of displacement with a minor southeasterly component of downthrow. |
|
| Both dextral and sinistral forms occur within a species, dextral males mating with sinistral females and vice versa. |
|
| Asymmetric boudins in the shear zone indicate a sinistral shear sense. |
|
|
|
| In this interpretation, the Troodos ophiolite formed to the east of a ridge-transform ridge intersection, in which the transform had a dextral offset and sinistral slip. |
|
| The unusual change in shell coiling from dextral to sinistral during their ontogeny represents a character which makes their recognition in the fossil record easy. |
|
| Nevertheless, sinistral and dextral Pb elements are virtually mirror images, that is, they are more alike than the corresponding elements in L. variabilis. |
|
| If you want it set up for sinistral use, you can quickly and easily swap the button to the other side. |
|
| But my left hand would still be in plaster, making the writing of this piece an extraordinarily cumbersome affair for a sinistral type such as myself. |
|
| Until then, MDN geologists' are completing a detailed geochemical soil survey to collect new samples light of sinistral displacements and doing compilation and mapping of anomalies in the identified goldbearing structures. |
|
| They attributed this pattern to sinistral rotation along the fault, which juxtaposed the two divergent paleoflow domains. |
|
| Geologists class this as being within the sphere of the sinistral East Anatolian Fault and out of the Levant Fracture System. |
|
| The cause of the predominantly sinistral occurrence of thrombosis of the pelvic veins. |
|
| Published documents have described only the late Carboniferous movement on the fault as either northwest-directed thrusting or sinistral transcurrence. |
|
| The Mundrabilla Fault is readily interpretable as a sinistral transpressional fault formed during Proterozoic north-west directed Australia-wide compression. |
|
| Sinistral clades also did not originate in the less planktonically productive insular Indo-West Pacific and Caribbean. |
