Abstract

We thank Fernando Marques for his interest in our paper. In essence, we think that there is no disagreement between his view of eye and sheath fold formation and our own. The purpose of our paper was not to challenge existing formation theories, but rather to report eye and sheath folds from a syn-sedimentary deformation setting; one with the potential to be widely confused with tectonic settings. We are happy to clarify points which we seem not to have made clear enough in our paper.
