Apie šią el. knygą

A synthesis of current knowledge on global extensional tectonics

The extension of Earth’s lithosphere occurs at divergent plate boundaries as well as in plate interiors. The geological, geochemical, and sedimentary processes of extension offer insights into topics ranging from the fundamentals of tectonics to the evolution of life.

Extensional Tectonics: Rifting and Continental Extension reviews present-day knowledge of extensional tectonic processes and explores examples from around the world.

Volume highlights include:

Overview of extensional tectonic processes from continental rifting to oceanic basin formation
In-depth examination of extension along rift systems and rift margins
Review of post-collisional continental extension
Examples from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas
Insights from observations, modeling, and 3D seismic data interpretation of extended terrains

This book is one of a set of three in the collection Tectonic Processes: A Global View.
