During the last four decades, subduction remained one of the most challenging and
captivating geodynamic processes investigated with numerical techniques. While significant …

Abstract The Cenozoic East African rift (EAR), Cameroon Volcanic Line (CVL), and Atlas
Mountains formed on the slow‐moving African continent, which last experienced orogeny …

Presenting a coherent synthesis of lithosphere studies, this book covers a range of
geophysical methods (seismic reflection, refraction, and receiver function methods; elastic …

Among the various university courses I took for my geoscience degree, volcanology and
structural geology motivated me by far the most. Volcanoes and deformed rocks are indeed …

We use teleseismic waveform inversion, along with depth phase analysis, to constrain the
centroid depths and source parameters of large African earthquakes. The majority of seismic …

We present a model for the Jurassic to Present evolution of plate boundaries and oceanic
crust of the African plate based on updated interpretation of magnetic, gravity and other …

Heat provides the energy that drives almost all geological phenomena and sets the
temperature at which these phenomena operate. This book explains the key physical …

Large-scale deformation of continents remains poorly understood more than 40 years after
the plate tectonic revolution. Rock flow strength and mass density variations both contribute …

Recent research in Afar (northern Ethiopia) has largely focused on the formation of the
present‐day ocean‐continent transition at active segments (eg, Manda Hararo). However …
