Potential temperature and depth-dependent extension control melt volume at Atlantic volcanic margins Breakup volcanism along rifted passive margins is highly variable in time and space. The factors controlling magmatic activity during continental rifting and breakup are not resolved and controversial. …
Topography during Pangea Breakup - Case of the South Atlantic Central Segment - 2-D thermo-mechanical modelling and implications for salt basin formation In this study we use observations from the central South Atlantic conjugate margins to constrain the structural style …
Tracing tectonically active faults with the smallest earthquakes: sensitive detection of the 2021 Bitdalsvatnet earthquake swarm
Form And Fill of A Transtensional Lacustrine Rift Basin: Lower Talangakar Formation, Jatibarang Subbasin, Offshore NW Java, Indonesia
Magmatism at Atlantic volcanic rifted margins: When do we need mantle plumes? Breakup volcanism along rifted passive margins is highly variable in time and space. The factors controlling magmatic activity during continental rifting and breakup are not resolved and controversial. …
Transition from Aegean back-arc extension to Corinth rifting. Miocene to Pleistocene interacting extensional regimes of the Northern Peloponnese.

Hyperpycnal flows: are they sediment-gravity flows? Authors: Flávio N. de Almeida Júnior & Ronald Steel Hyperpycnal flow is a process involving the underflow of denser material through sediment-laden river currents that enter lighter ambient water, e.g., lake or seawater. Relatively …
Limestones: an essential user guide to sediments that dissolve, precipitate and grow Carbonate sedimentary rocks form through the accumulation of organisms and chemically precipitated calcium carbonate, usually on the sea floor. They preserve fragments of marine organisms, which are sensitive …
Preliminary results from apatite thermochronology and U-Pb calcite geochronology – insight into the topographic evolution of Western Norway Hestnes, Å.1, Jacobs, J.1, Drost, K.2, Dunkl, I.3, Gasser, D.4,5, Ksienzyk, A.K.5, Scheiber, T.4, Sømme, T.1,6, Mayer-Ullmann, F.1, Chew, D.2 1 …
Fracturing and force distribution during shearing in bimaterial gouges Fault gouges are amongst the main products of strain accommodation in the brittle upper crust. During shear, fracturing has a direct effect on grain size (and shape) evolution and ultimately grain-grain …
