Normal fault relay structures form at all scales as faults interact or step out of their own plane
during growth, and their successive formation and destruction represent the most efficient …

A better understanding of the interplay between rift basin evolution and sediment transport
paths can improve the success rate of locating hydrocarbon reservoirs at passive rift …

Normal faults grow via a sympathetic increase in their displacement and length ('isolated
model') or by rapid establishment of their near-final length prior to significant displacement …

Highlights•In the Lofoten margin, the presence and geometry of early rift faults influenced the
structural style of later rift episodes.•During late stage rifting a single, through-going fault …

The evolution of depositional systems in multiphase rifts is influenced by the selective
reactivation of faults between subsequent rift phases. The Middle Jurassic to Palaeocene …

Deep‐water syn‐rift systems develop in partially‐or transiently‐linked depocentres to form
complicated depositional architectures, which are characterised by short transport distances …

Structurally controlled bathymetry in rifts has a significant influence on sediment routing
pathways and depositional architecture of sediment gravity flow deposits. In contrast to rift …

Sea‐floor topography of deep‐water folds is widely considered to have a major impact on
turbidity currents and their depositional systems, but understanding the flow response to …

Established models indicate that, before being breached, relay zones along rift borders can
evolve either by lengthening and rotating during progressive overlap of growing fault …

The influence exerted by the linkage and growth of fault segments on the sedimentation
pattern in a lacustrine rift subbasin, the northern Bonan Sag in the Jiyang Depression in the …
