Morpho-structural evolution of a volcanic island developed inside an active oceanic rift: S. Miguel Island (Terceira Rift, Azores)
The evolution of volcanic islands is generally marked by fast construction phases alternating
with destruction by a variety of mass-wasting processes. More specifically, volcanic islands …
