Structural comparison of archetypal Atlantic rifted margins: A review of observations and concepts
G Peron-Pinvidic, G Manatschal… - Marine and petroleum …, 2013 - Elsevier
In this study we compare three pairs of conjugate rifted margins that are often referred to as
archetypes of rift systems. Despite numerous differences, a remarkable first-order structural …

Magmatism within the northern margin of the South China Sea during the post-rift stage: An overview, and new insights into the geodynamics
Abstract The South China Sea, which is located to the southeast of Eurasian continent,
developed as the result of intra-continental rifting and seafloor spreading on the South …

From rifting to oceanic spreading in the Gulf of Aden: a synthesis
We present here a synthesis of the evolution of rifted continental margin systems in the Gulf
of Aden. These margins are volcanic to the West of the Gulf of Aden, where they are …
