The extension of the lithosphere, controlling the development of rifted basins, is driven by a
combination of plate-boundary forces, frictional forces exerted on the base of the lithosphere …

During the quadrennial term 1979–1982, major advances have been made in our
knowledge of the rheology of the oceanic lithosphere by the skillful combination of …

The study and interpretation of the textures, sedimentary structures, fossils, and lithologic
associations of sedimentary rocks on the scale of an outcrop, well section, or small segment …

The Bouguer gravity anomaly over the Himalayan, Alpine, and Appalachian mountains is
characterized by a generally asymmetric gravity “low”, which spans the mountains and …

Quantitative modelling of the filling of sedimentary basins was begun in earnest in the
1960s. Dozens of themes and variations have been proposed since then, and have yielded …

Seismic reflection profiles and well data are used to determine the Cenozoic stratigraphic
and tectonic development of the northern margin of the South China Sea. In the Taiwan …

We suggest that the uplift of rift flanks results from mechanical unloading of the lithosphere
during extension and consequent isostatic rebound. This mechanism is presented as an …

Sediment-hosted stratiform copper deposits comprise disseminated to veinlet Cu and Cu-Fe
sulfides in sili-ciclastic or dolomitic sedimentary rocks. Sediment-hosted stratiform copper …

Pennsylvanian major marine cyclothems in midcontinent North America comprise the
sequence: thin transgressive limestone, thin offshore gray to black phosphatic shale, and …

The Exxon sequence models of Posamentier and coworkers incorporate two concepts which
I question. They suggest that rivers grade to a" bayline", but evidence from modern major …
