Structural comparison of archetypal Atlantic rifted margins: A review of observations and concepts

G Peron-Pinvidic, G Manatschal… - Marine and petroleum …, 2013‏ - Elsevier
In this study we compare three pairs of conjugate rifted margins that are often referred to as
archetypes of rift systems. Despite numerous differences, a remarkable first-order structural …

Rifted margins: Ductile deformation, boudinage, continentward-dip** normal faults and the role of the weak lower crust

C Clerc, JC Ringenbach, L Jolivet, JF Ballard - Gondwana Research, 2018‏ - Elsevier
The stunningly increased resolution of the deep crustal levels in recent industrial seismic
profiles acquired along most of the world's rifted margins leads to the unraveling of an …

Potential links between continental rifting, CO2 degassing and climate change through time

S Brune, SE Williams, RD Müller - Nature Geoscience, 2017‏ - nature.com
The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is a key influence on Earth's climate. Today,
significant quantities of CO2 are emitted at continental rifts, suggesting that the spatial and …

From rifting to oceanic spreading in the Gulf of Aden: a synthesis

S Leroy, P Razin, J Autin, F Bache… - … and sedimentary basins …, 2013‏ - Springer
We present here a synthesis of the evolution of rifted continental margin systems in the Gulf
of Aden. These margins are volcanic to the West of the Gulf of Aden, where they are …

The role of structural inheritance in oblique rifting: Insights from analogue models and application to the Gulf of Aden

J Autin, N Bellahsen, S Leroy, L Husson, MO Beslier… - Tectonophysics, 2013‏ - Elsevier
The geometry and kinematics of rifts are strongly controlled by pre-existing structures that
may be present in both the crust and the mantle lithosphere. In the Gulf of Aden, the Tertiary …

The continent–ocean transition at the mid-northern margin of the South China Sea

J Gao, S Wu, K McIntosh, L Mi, B Yao, Z Chen, L Jia - Tectonophysics, 2015‏ - Elsevier
The northern margin of the South China Sea (SCS) has particular structural and stratigraphic
characteristics that are somewhat different from those described in typical passive margin …
