Long-term landscape evolution and post-rift reactivation in the southeastern Brazilian passive continental margin: Taubat, basin
(Springer, 2014-03-01)
Zircon (ZFT) and apatite (AFT) fission-track low-temperature thermochronology was applied at the Brazilian passive continental margin in order to understand and reconstruct the post-rift evolution since the breakup of ...
Evolution of a rift basin dominated by subaerial deposits: The Guaritas Rift, Early Cambrian, Southern Brazil
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2009)
Most existing models for the evolution of rift basins predict the development of deep-water depositional systems during the stage of greatest tectonic subsidence, when accommodation generation potentially outpaces ...
The influence of rifting on escarpment migration on high elevation passive continental margins
(AMER GEOPHYSICAL UNIONWASHINGTON, 2012)
Using numerical models that couple surface processes, flexural isostasy, faulting and the thermal effects of rifting, we show that fault-bounded escarpments created at rift flanks by mechanical unloading and flexural rebound ...
Rift to post-rift evolution of a passive continental margin: the Ponta Grossa Arch, SE Brazil
(Springer, 2010-10-01)
Low-temperature thermochronology was applied at the Brazilian passive continental margin in order to understand and reconstruct the post-rift evolution since the break-up of southwestern Gondwana. Thermochronological data ...
Evolução do rifteamento e paleogeografia da margem Atlântica Equatorial do Brasil: Triássico ao Holoceno
(2011-12-01)
The Equatorial Atlantic Margin evolved from three rift systems recorded by a complex set of sedimentary basins developed since Upper Triassic to the Lower Cretaceous (Albian). The first rift system formed Foz do Amazonas ...
Unraveling the origin of the Parnaíba Basin: Testing the rift to sag hypothesis using a multi-proxy provenance analysis
(2020-08-01)
Syneclises are long-lived sedimentary basins characterized by complex subsidence and erosion histories. The premise that these geotectonic units evolve from initial rifting processes following thermal (or flexural) subsidence ...
Caldera events in a rift depocentre: an example from the Jurassic Neuquén basin, Argentina
(Geological Soc Publ House, 2013-05-24)
We analyse the volcanic stratigraphy of the Lower Jurassic synrift sequence of the Sañicó depocentre, which is a sub-basin of one of the most important hydrocarbon basins in South America, the Neuquén rift basin. The Sañicó ...
