oa Control of Thrust Propagation on Turbidite Sedimentation

In foreland basins, the deep and narrow trough which forms adjacent to the thrust front is commonly termed foredeep, and, until the orogenic wedge is not significantly uplifted and emerged, the trough is characteristically filled in with axial turbidites sourced from fluvio-deltaic systems located in emerged areas of adjacent orogens where substantial tectonic uplift has already occurred.
