Volcanism records plate thinning driven rift localization in Afar (Ethiopia) since 2-2.5 million years ago
Abstract Magma-rich continental rifting and breakup commonly show complex distributions of volcanism, potentially due to both plume and rifting controls. As such, interpreting the main controls on the spatial evolution of magmatism is debated, as is the point at which continental rifting transitions...
