==Timing of fault movement==
Fault movement timing is critical for trap formation timing. [[Growth fault|Growth-fault]] [http://structuralgeology.50webs.com/pagef21.htm rollover anticlines] develop by [[Dp|updip]] expansion and sediment entrapment on the downthrown side of the fault and consequent [[Dip|downdip]] sediment starvation and continued subsidence within the intraslope basin (see Figure 4-43 for geometries above the ''Trim A'' interval along fault A′). Thus, the updip trap for [[http://cdn.intechopen.com/pdfs-wm/25729.pdf gravity gravity-flow sandstone] is the rollover into the fault, formed during the dynamic phase of fault movement.
