Rifted margins classification and forcing parameters
F Sapin, JC Ringenbach, C Clerc - Scientific Reports, 2021 - nature.com

Kinematic evolution of the southern North Atlantic: Implications for the formation of hyperextended rift systems
We focus on the southern North Atlantic rifted margins to investigate the partitioning and
propagation of deformation in hyperextended rift systems using plate kinematic modeling …

Reappraisal of the magma-rich versus magma-poor rifted margin archetypes
Rifted margins are commonly defined as magma-poor or magma-rich archetypes based on
their morphology. We re-examine the prevailing model inferred from this classification that …

Insights into the crustal‐scale dynamics of a doubly vergent orogen from a quantitative analysis of its forelands: A case study of the Eastern Pyrenees
AR Grool, M Ford, J Vergés, RS Huismans… - …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
In natural doubly vergent orogens, the relationship between the pro‐and retro‐wedges is, as
yet, poorly constrained. We present a detailed tectonostratigraphic study of the retro‐wedge …
