[BOOK][B] Salt tectonics: Principles and practice

MPA Jackson, MR Hudec - 2017 - books.google.com

Getting over continent ocean boundaries

G Eagles, L Pérez-Díaz, N Scarselli - Earth-Science Reviews, 2015 - Elsevier
The idea of a simple linear boundary between continental and oceanic crust at extended
continental margins is widely recognized to be an oversimplification. Despite this, such …

Passive‐margin salt basins: Hyperextension, evaporite deposition, and salt tectonics

MG Rowan - Basin Research, 2014 - earthdoc.org
Passive‐margin salt basins are classified as prerift, syn‐stretching, syn‐thinning, and syn‐
exhumation. Prerift salt, such as the Triassic Keuper in the Western Pyrenees, undergoes …

South Atlantic salt basins–witnesses of complex passive margin evolution

PA Kukla, F Strozyk, WU Mohriak - Gondwana Research, 2018 - Elsevier
Cretaceous aged salt and salt-free basins along the continental margins of Brazil and
Angola/Namibia exhibit a rather heterogeneous geometry and basin fill which implies a …

Rapid outer marginal collapse at the rift to drift transition of passive margin evolution, with a Gulf of Mexico case study

J Pindell, R Graham, B Horn - Basin Research, 2014 - earthdoc.org
Abstract Interpretation of long‐offset 2D depth‐imaged seismic data suggests that outer
continental margins collapse and tilt basinward rapidly as rifting yields to seafloor spreading …
