In the context of rift basin formation, structural inheritance describes the influence of pre-
existing structures on new rift-related structures, including faults. Pre-existing structures in …

Abstract The Lake Malawi (Nyasa) Rift, in the East African Rift System (EARS), is an ideal
modern analogue for the study of extensional tectonic systems in low strain rate settings …

We present new insights on the geometry, initiation and growth of the Thyolo fault, an 85 km
long active border fault in the southern Malawi Rift, from high-resolution topography, field …

Although much is known about the interaction of faulting and sedimentation within the
basins of active segmented continental rift systems, little is known about these processes …

Little is known about rift kinematics and strain distribution during the earliest phase of
extension due to the deep burial of the pre-rift and earliest rift structures beneath younger, rift …

The role of inherited structures during the development of normal faults in continental rifts
and proximal domains of passive margins have been extensively studied. Few studies …

The link between major basement anisotropies and basin evolution is crucial for
understanding the role of tectonic inheritance on continental margins. However, it is still a …

Abstract The High Moulouya Basin (HMB) occupies a key location between the Southern
Middle Atlas and the Central High Atlas. Gravity data from the HMB show the presence of …

The present study is a detailed structural analysis of 3D seismic data in the Selis Ridge in
the western Loppa High in the Norwegian Barents Sea, to which seismic attributes and …

Preexisting crustal heterogeneities are shown to influence rift process at a variety of scales.
However, our understanding of how crustal inheritance influences rift‐scale spatiotemporal …
