Fig. 4

Schematic cross-section of the evolution of a wedge with multiple BTH collisions. The red and blue lines represent the active and inactive décollements, respectively. Colored units (gray, brown, green, and blue) represent each BTH collisional unit bounded by the old and new décollements. The yellow strata are the underthrust sediments behind the BTH. Enlarged schematic illustrations of the strata represent the mechanical and hydrological conditions (Fig. 5) in the underthrust sediments
