Journal ArticleDOI

New insights into magnetic derivatives for structural mapping

TL;DR: In this article, the combination of the tilt derivative and its total horizontal derivative are used for mapping shallow basement structure and mineral exploration targets and they have distinct advantages over many conventional derivatives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Controls on rifting in Africa and the regional tectonic model for the Nigeria and East Niger rift basins

TL;DR: In this article, gravity modelling of the Nigeria and East Niger rift basins shows the extent and nature of the broad (regional) positive Bouguer anomaly associated with these rifts.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role that plate tectonics, inferred stress changes and stratigraphic unconformities have on the evolution of the West and Central African Rift System and the Atlantic continental margins

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated on a regional scale the tectonic processes that have contributed to the development of the West and Central African rift basins, and proposed that the causative mechanism is change in relative plate motion which leads to an increase or decrease in the tension on the plate and thus controls the strength or effective elastic thickness, Te, of the crust/plate beneath the margins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depth to Curie temperature across the central Red Sea from magnetic data using the de-fractal method

TL;DR: In this article, a modified spectral analysis technique, the de-fractal spectral depth method, is developed and used to estimate the top and bottom boundaries of the magnetised layer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Displacement along the Red River Fault constrained by extension estimates and plate reconstructions

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used 2-D gravity forward models to restore the extended continental crust to its original position prior to extension, and found that substantial amounts of ENE-WSW extension for offshore Vietnam can only be modeled assuming moderate displacements along the Red River Fault compatible with the presence of a southward subducting proto-South China
