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 …

In this paper, we show with examples that cratons involved in intercontinental collisions in a
lower plate position are often affected by orogenic events, leading to the transformation of …

Closed topographic basins are found beneath contemporary ice masses and within the
footprint of former ice masses in all glaciated regions. We present the first integrated review …

Many studies of elevated, passive continental margins (EPCMs) assume that their
characteristic, large-scale morphology with high-level plateaux and deeply incised valleys …

The continental margin of southeast Brazil is elevated. Onshore Tertiary basins and Late
Cretaceous/Paleogene intrusions are good evidence for post breakup tectono‐magmatic …

The onset of the North Atlantic Deep Water formation is thought to have coincided with
Antarctic ice-sheet growth about 34 million years ago (Ma). However, this timing is debated …

The incompleteness of the stratigraphical record is well documented, and the concept of
“missing time” has attracted renewed attention in recent years. However, the importance of …

The topographic evolution of the “passive” margins of the North Atlantic during the last 65
Myr is the subject of extensive debate due to inherent limitations of the geological …

Low-relief plateaus separated by deeply incised fjords are hallmarks of glaciated, passive
continental margins. Spectacular examples fringe the once ice-covered North Atlantic coasts …

Despite many years of study, the processes involved in the post-breakup development of
passive margins remain poorly understood. Integration of apatite fission track analysis …
