Geodynamics of continental rift initiation and evolution
A continental rift is a nascent plate boundary where the lithosphere is thinned by tectonic
activity. Some continental rifts undergo extension to the point that they generate a new …

Oblique rifting: the rule, not the exception
Movements of tectonic plates often induce oblique deformation at divergent plate
boundaries. This is in striking contrast with traditional conceptual models of rifting and rifted …
