Crustal rheology controls the style of rifting and ultimately the architecture of rifted margins.
Here we review the formation of three magma-poor margin pairs, Iberia-Newfoundland, the …

Abstract The North Atlantic, extending from the Charlie Gibbs Fracture Zone to the north
Norway-Greenland-Svalbard margins, is regarded as both a classic case of structural …

The thorough interpretation of the South Atlantic long offset seismic lines provides a new
view of the magmatic and crustal architecture and of the evolution of the conjugate volcanic …

2006 年以来被动大陆边缘盆地已成为全球油气储量的主要增长区. 通过统计分析被动大陆边缘
盆地的勘探趋势, 系统总结了被动大陆边缘盆地的地质进展, 阐述了主要盆地的油气分布基本 …

Abstract The Norwegian-Greenland Sea (NGS) in the NE Atlantic comprises diverse tectonic
regimes and structural features including sub-oceanic basins of different ages …

The Møre and Vøring basins of the mid-Norwegian volcanic passive margin are
characterized by thick accumulations of Cretaceous to Paleocene sedimentary strata. They …

Numerical experiments have been used to relate the range in the distribution and the style of
deformation observed in rifted margins to localizing/delocalizing thermomechanical …

Tectonic inheritance deals with the influence of pre-existing or pre-rift elements on the
geometry, genesis and propagation of rift-related faults. Inheritance strongly controls the …

The idea of a simple linear boundary between continental and oceanic crust at extended
continental margins is widely recognized to be an oversimplification. Despite this, such …

The large‐magnitude faults that control crustal thinning and excision at rifted margins
combine into laterally persistent structural boundaries that separate margin domains of …
