Journal ArticleDOI
Lithospheric strength variations as a control on new plate boundaries: examples from the northern Red Sea region
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analysis of lithospheric strength variations across the Mediterranean continental margin and predict a characteristic strength profile at continental margins, which consists of a marked increase in strength seaward of the hinge zone and a strength minimum landward of a hinge zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flexural uplift of the Transantarctic Mountains
Tim Stern,Uri S. ten Brink +1 more
TL;DR: The Transantarctic Mountains have formed at the continent-continent boundary between East and West Antarctica as discussed by the authors, and three principal structures have developed at and adjacent to the boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size distribution of submarine landslides and its implication to tsunami hazard in Puerto Rico
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used bathymetry along the northern edge of the carbonate platform to estimate the maximum tsunami runup and the maximum number of potentially damaging tsunamis from landslides to the north shore of Puerto Rico.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multichannel seismic evidence for a subcrustal intrusive complex under Oahu and a model for Hawaiian volcanism
TL;DR: In this article, the authors constructed a model which suggests that the interaction between the upwelling magma and the lithospheric flexural stress field may modulate the characteristic eruption history of Hawaiian volcanoes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Size distribution of submarine landslides along the U.S. Atlantic margin
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the size distribution of submarine landslides along the U.S. Atlantic continental slope and rise using the size of the landslide source regions (landslide failure scars).
