| Abstract | Geometry and post-Oligocene kinematics of the Aix and Moyenne Durance faults (Provence, France). The southern termination of the left-lateral 'Moyenne Durance' Fault (FMD) consists in several segments, some being connected to WSWtrending south-verging reverse faults. To the south, the Aix fault is reactivated in a post-Oligocene strike-slip movement showing that these two faults might belong to the same system. This system seems to transfer, in turn, slip to the east-trending, southverging Trevaresse reverse fault, allowing southward propagation of the Alpine deformation front in western Provence. Fault kinematics analysis shows lateral stress field change between the two faults. Strike-slip stress state is characterized by an average N150 ◦ E trending σ 1 near the FMD termination, whilst strike-slip and reverse faulting stress states show north-trending σ1 to |
