Stylolites: A review
by Renaud Toussaint, et al. - arXiv.org
Stylolites are ubiquitous geo-patterns observed in rocks in the upper crust, from geological reservoirs in sedimentary rocks to deformation zones, in folds, faults and shear zones. These rough surfaces play a major role in the dissolution of rocks...
