Journal ArticleDOI

The role of serpentinization and magmatism in the formation of decoupling interfaces at magma-poor rifted margins

TL;DR: In this article, the authors highlight the occurrence of two major decoupling horizons controlling the structural and magmatic evolution of distal magma-poor rifted margins and suggest that during final rifting the strain distribution is controlled first by hydration and then by magmatic processes in the domain of exhumed mantle.
Journal ArticleDOI

The syn-rift stratigraphic record across a fossil hyper-extended rifted margin: the example of the northwestern Adriatic margin exposed in the Central Alps

TL;DR: In this paper, the Austroalpine and Upper Penninic nappes in the Central Alps were investigated to understand the overall spatial and temporal evolution and resulting sedimentary stacking patterns within an evolving hyper-extended rift system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-lived mega fault-scarps and related breccias at distal rifted margins: insights from present-day and fossil analogues

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the sedimentary system located at their toe across magma-poor rifted margins and show that mega fault-scarps are preferentially located at rift domain boundaries, implying a topographic escarpment that juxtaposes rift domains of different crustal thickness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tectono-sedimentary evolution of a fossil ocean-continent transition: Tasna nappe, central Alps (SE Switzerland)

TL;DR: In this article, sedimentological, structural, and petrographical observations and detrital zircon provenance data were used to document the processes controlling continental hyperextension and mantle exhumation.
