Rifting, lithosphere breakup and volcanism: Comparison of magma-poor and volcanic rifted margins
D Franke - Marine and Petroleum geology, 2013 - Elsevier
Traditionally active rifts are thought to evolve in response to thermal upwelling of the
asthenosphere, whereas passive rifts develop in response to lithospheric extension driven …

A global reference model of Curie-point depths based on EMAG2
CF Li, Y Lu, J Wang - Scientific reports, 2017 - nature.com
In this paper, we use a robust inversion algorithm, which we have tested in many regional
studies, to obtain the first global model of Curie-point depth (GCDM) from magnetic anomaly …

Geothermal energy as a means to decarbonize the energy mix of megacities
The global number of megacities is projected to increase from 33 to 43 by 2030. Megacities
are critical for the world's economy; however, their resource management is particularly …

Rifted margins: Ductile deformation, boudinage, continentward-dipping normal faults and the role of the weak lower crust
The stunningly increased resolution of the deep crustal levels in recent industrial seismic
profiles acquired along most of the world's rifted margins leads to the unraveling of an …
