This review shows how collective analysis of morphotectonic elements on uplifting rift
margins can constrain the mechanical behaviour of continents during early rifting. This is …

The Corinth basin (Greece) is a young continental rift that recorded cyclic basin
paleoenvironment variations (ie, marine to lacustrine) caused by glacio-eustatic sea level …

The destruction of Ancient Helike in 373 BC as reported by ancient Greek and Roman
writers is inconsistent with modern evidence on the geological context. The classical view of …

Abstract The Kingston Peak Formation of the Pahrump Group in the Death Valley region of
the Basin and Range Province, USA, is the thick (over 3 km) mixed siliciclastic–carbonate fill …

Our current understanding on sedimentary deep‐water environments is mainly built of
information obtained from tectonic settings such as passive margins and foreland basins …

Interactions between footwall‐, hangingwall‐and axial‐derived depositional systems make
syn‐rift stratigraphic architecture difficult to predict, and preservation of net‐erosional source …

Traditional sequence stratigraphic models provide limited understanding of the internal
complexity and variability of mixed siliciclastic-carbonate strata accumulated in tectonically …

Sequence architectures along the margins of rift basins are still poorly documented
compared to passive continental margin settings. The Eocene Shahejie Formation on the rift …

Quantification of allogenic controls in rift basin‐fills requires analysis of multiple depositional
systems because of marked along‐strike changes in depositional architecture. Here, we …

The timing and character of coarse siliciclastic sediment delivered to deep-water
environments in active rift basins is governed by the complicated interactions of tectonics …
