There are three kinds of strike-slip faults: pure strike-slip, transtensional and transpressional. They have been recognized in all geodynamic environments and are the most common fault type associated with volcanic activity. Many volcanic edifices are built in the vicinity of a fault with strike-slip motion. The impact of strike-slip fault movements on a volcanic cone has been addressed by several studies over the last decade. This study considers a broad range of fault and volcano geometries through three natural examples: the Guadeloupe volcanoes in the Lesser Antilles, Mt Cameroon in West Africa and Maderas volcano in Nicaragua. Detailed field and remote sensing studies are used to establish structural maps of these three little studied...
