Topography and subsidence during rifting.

Thomas will give us updates about his ongoing work. Sedimentary basins result from the interlinked evolution of drainage area and uplift/subsidence of the continental domain (onshore and offshore). In this presentation, we will discuss the different causes that explain the topography evolution from the proximal to the distal domain of rifted margins during rifting with a focus on the role of mantle exhumation.
