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 …

Comparison of methods to estimate sediment flux in ancient sediment routing systems
The need to predict accurately the volume, timing and location of sediments that are
transported from an erosional source region into a basin-depocentre sink is important for …

High-resolution seismic record of the Quaternary palaeoenvironments along a Dalmatian-type coast (Lošinj Channel, Adriatic Sea)
Coastal systems have changed considerably in response to Quaternary glacial–interglacial
variability. Here, we offer the first detailed assessment of geomorphic features and late …
