THE STRUCTURAL STYLE OF FOOTWALL SHORTCUTS ALONG THE EASTERN FOOTHILLS OF THE COLOMBIAN EASTERN CORDILLERA. DIFFERENCES WITH OTHER INVERSION RELATED STRUCTURES ESTILO ESTRUCTURAL DE LAS FALLAS DE ATAJO A LO LARGO DEL PIEDEMONTE ORIENTAL DE LA CORDILLERA ORIENTAL COLOMBIANA. DIFERENCIAS CON OTRAS ESTRUCTURAS RELACIONADAS CON INVERSIÓN TECTÓNICA

For the first time we show geological evidence of unambiguosly documented footwall shortcuts adjacent to the trace of inverted master nomal faults, in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia. The Eastern Cordillera is an orogen whose width and location are traced by a Mesozoic graben. However, few struct...
