Abstract
An Yin of UCLA was invited to write this chapter as he had a near unique approach to understanding tectonic processes. Unfortunately, he passed away on a field trip just a month or two before manuscripts were due. His work was informed by both field studies and theory, which were then applied to very wide-ranging systems, including the Tibetan Plateau (e.g., Murphy et al. 1997; Kapp et al. 2005), low-angle normal faults of the Basin and Range province (Yin 1989) and, in the planetary realm, the tectonics of Enceladus (Yin et al. 2016) and...
