Analog Models of Lithospheric‐Scale Rifting Monitored in an X‐Ray CT Scanner
(Tectonics, 2023-03-01)Rifting and continental break‐up are fundamental tectonic processes, the understanding of which is of prime importance. However, the vast temporal and spatial scales involved pose major limitations to researchers. Analog ... -
Mantle Convection Patterns Reveal the Mechanism of the Red Sea Rifting
(Tectonics, 2020)We present a new model of the stress state and present-day tectonics of the Red Sea Rift (RSR) based on an instantaneous geodynamic mantle flow model. The initial density and viscosity variations in the mantle are derived ... -
Polyphase Magmatism During the Formation of the Northern East Greenland Continental Margin
(Tectonics, 2019)New marine geophysical data acquired across the partly ice-covered northern East Greenland continental margin highlight a complex interaction between tectonic and magmatic events. Breakup-related lava flows are imaged in ... -
The Evolution of Central Volcanoes in Ultraslow Rift Systems: Constraints From D. João de Castro Seamount, Azores
(Tectonics, 2021-06-29)The Dom João de Castro seamount in the Hirondelle Basin (Azores) is a central volcano on the ultraslow diverging Terceira Rift axis. The combination of structural and geochemical data provides insights into the evolution ... -
Volcano‐Tectonic Evolution of the Christiana‐Santorini‐Kolumbo Rift Zone
(Tectonics, 2022-11-22)Located on the Hellenic Arc, the Christiana‐Santorini‐Kolumbo (CSK) rift zone represents one of the most active and hazardous volcano‐tectonic systems in the Mediterranean. Although this rift zone has been intensively ...
