In biogeography, vicariance and long‐distance dispersal are often characterised as
competing scenarios. However, they are related concepts, both relying on collective …

Movements of tectonic plates often induce oblique deformation at divergent plate
boundaries. This is in striking contrast with traditional conceptual models of rifting and rifted …

Brackish marine and brackish continental environments are fundamentally different from a
compositional perspective. Brackish water is often defined as having salinity lower than that …

Carbonate intraplatform basins are documented worldwide as peculiar synsedimentary
tectonic features forming in rifted margins and especially in those cases where the direction …

Pull‐apart basins are structural features linked to the interactions between strike‐slip and
extensional tectonics. Their morphology and structural evolution are determined by factors …

Abstract The Gulf of Elat-Aqaba (GEA), located in the southern part of the Dead Sea
Transform (DST), is one of the most active segments of the Dead Sea fault system. Yet, some …

Mixed carbonate–siliciclastic deposits provide unique insights into hydrodynamic processes
that control sedimentation in tidal systems. This study presents sedimentological and …

Aim To review the histories of the Colorado River and North American monsoon system to
ascertain their effects on the genetic divergence of desert‐adapted animals. Location Lower …

Abstract The Pescadero Basin Complex (PBC) comprises three distinctive rhomb-shaped
pull-apart basins separated by short and highly overlapped transform faults. Multibeam …

The western and eastern zones of the Qiongdongnan Basin (China) show clear contrasts in
sub‐basin distribution, fault orientation, and structural styles. Generally, pre‐existing …
