The Marmara region of northwest Turkey is located at the western end of the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), a main strike-slip fault system that has produced remarkable sequences of destructive earthquakes throughout its length of more than 1500 km (Ambraseys and Finkel 1991; Ambraseys and Jackson 2000; Ambraseys 2002a, b) (Fig. 1).
Because positive flower structures typically include thrusts with minor displacement surrounding a main strike-slip fault (e.g., Hornafius et al. 1986; Murphy and Fuis 2010) and because the shallow splay fault was much more active in the past (approximately 2 Ma), only dip-slip features are observed in core samples of the shallow branched mega-splay fault (Ashi et al. 2008).
But it was also the work at the breakdown, where Ireland openside flanker Sean O'Brien dominated and where Australia missed David Pocock, that meant Australia never got the quick ball that is so crucial to a team that has its main strike weapons in the backs.
Israel has been criticised for using the so-called "knock on the roof" method - warning people of impending airstrikes by launching a non-explosive missile before the main strike.
With Israel Folau straining a hamstring 25 minutes in, Australia lost their main strike runner.
Nevertheless, he lost his main strike weapon last week when Shaun Harrad, a stalwart who scored both goals against Middlesbrough, went to Northampton for a salary that could not be matched.
In other words, a 3D polygon has spatial geometry that can be used to identify the main strike direction and dip inclination of each panel.
The Dorniers were supported by a German fighter aircraft that had been sent out in advance of the main strike.
The fact that Chris Soules, an inarticulate bulge of muscle whose main trait was living in a town with no grocery store, became the Bachelor that season suggests that the main strike against Marquel wasn't that the producers were cursed with an abundance of compelling options.
With his main strike bowlers all but bowled out, Clarke had nowhere to go.
