Most of the plate boundaries are activated obliquely with respect to the direction of far field
stresses, as roughly only 8% of the plate boundaries total length shows a very low obliquity …

Despite its proximity to many research institutions in the country and prevailing
environmental and water security challenges, water resources research in the Central Rift …

Abstract The Main Ethiopian Rift Valley encompasses a number of volcanoes, which are
known to be actively deforming with reoccurring periods of uplift and setting. One of the …

Despite the importance of continental breakup in plate tectonics, precisely how extensional
processes such as brittle faulting, ductile plate stretching, and magma intrusion evolve in …

During the development of continental rifts, strain accommodation shifts from border faults to
intra-rift faults. This transition represents a critical process in the evolution of rift basins in the …

The evolution of the continental intraarc Taupo Rift in the North Island, New Zealand, is
rapid, significantly faster than comparative intracontinental rifts such as the African Rifts …

In this study, we draw on a unique combination of well‐resolved fault‐slip data and
earthquake focal mechanisms to constrain spatial variations in style of faulting in the …

We investigate the along‐axis variations in architecture, segmentation, and evolution of the
Main Ethiopian Rift (MER), East Africa, and relate these characteristics to the regional …

The geological record at rifts and margins worldwide often reveals considerable along‐strike
variations in volumes of extruded and intruded igneous rocks. These variations may be the …

Occurrence of multiple faults populations with contrasting orientations in oblique continental
rifts and passive margins has long sparked debate about relative timing of deformation …
