... Oblique convergence, which is commonly recognized in ancient orogens and modern convergent plate margins, results in the formation of transpressional shear zones characterized by combined pure and simple shear components (e.g., Sanderson and Marchini, 1984;Fossen and Tikoff, 1993;Tikoff and Teyssier, 1994;Jiang et al., 2001;Fernández and Díaz-Azpiroz, 2009;Acocella, 2014;Massey et al., 2017). Oblique convergence and the associated strikeslip deformation are crucial factors in orogenic construction, including the accretion and collision of arcs and continental blocks (fragments), and the lateral extrusion and terrane translation parallel to orogen (Tapponnier et al., 1982;Leloup et al., 1995;Umhoefer and Schiarizza, 1996;Koons et al., 2003;Sarkarinejad et al., 2008;Toy et al., 2012;Massey and Moecher, 2013;Acocella, 2014;Keshavarz and Faghih, 2020;Wang et al., 2023;Allen et al., 2023), and they are key factors to understand in the effort to characterize the geodynamic mechanics of convergent plate boundaries (e.g., Little et al., 2002;Philippon and Corti, 2016;Blatchford et al., 2020). Plate-boundary strike-slip systems, which are commonly localized near or within magmatic arcs in the upper plates of subduction systems, play a fundamental role in accommodating margin-parallel shear and have considerable implications for seismic hazard (e.g., Sumatra Island-McCaffrey, 2009; the northern Andes- Alvarado et al., 2016). ...
