[HTML][HTML] Broken foreland basins and the influence of subduction dynamics, tectonic inheritance, and mechanical triggers
Broken foreland basins are caused by crustal-scale contractional basement structures that
compartmentalize (or break) a contiguous retroarc or collisional foreland basin into smaller …
