(Sumatran Forearc not behaving as a rigid plate and that rate of slip increases along the right-lateral
Sumatran Fault System from southeast to northwest. Two hypotheses to explain this pattern of decoupling:
(1)arc-parallel stretching;(2) major right-lateral strike slip zone, parallel to Sumatran Fault System (Mentawai
fault zone). Mentawai fault zone S of Nias can be explained as inversion of originally extensional structures
and mud diapirism. Strike-slip motion is of limited importance along 600 km long Mentawai fault zone)

(Three main sub-basins on Nias. Late Paleogene-Neogene sedimentation controlled by r extensional faults. Two
inversion phases: (1) E Miocene, in W, (2 ) initiated in Pliocene, in all sub-basins. Latest Pliocene-Pleistocene
rocks unconformably overlie Miocene. Uplift and deformation controlled by reactivation of extensional faults
and oblique-slip movements on transecting faults. Diapiric melanges developed during inversion. Uplift of subbasins
on Nias inversion of original major extensional faults rather than thrust-slices in accretionary prism.
Nias not part of accretionary complex; accretionary prism SW of Nias)
