“…Many prior studies have examined timing of footwall exhumation in extensional tectonic settings (e.g., Brichau et al, 2006;Singleton et al, 2014;Stockli, 2005;Stockli et al, 2001;Wells et al, 2000). While applications to reverse faults have increased (e.g., Anderson et al, 2018;Carrapa et al, 2011;Fosdick et al, 2015;Herman et al, 2010;Long et al, 2012;Parra et al, 2009;von Hagke et al, 2012), quantifying thermal effects associated with varying fault slip rates and exhumation in structurally complex areas is challenging. Estimates for the onset, duration, and rates of contractional deformation can be improved by integrating systematic sampling with sequential structural restorations and thermal modeling (e.g., Almendral et al, 2015;Lock & Willett, 2008;Mancktelow & Grasemann, 1997;McQuarrie & Ehlers, 2015;Rak et al, 2017).…”
