Extension of continental lithosphere in rifted margins: a review of thinning mechanisms by Tugend, Julie, Mohn, Geoffroy, Duretz, Thibault, Petri, Benoit, Le Pourhiet, Laetitia

“…As already known, the activation of narrow or wide modes of lithospheric thinning depends on the rheological behaviour of the lower crust and its efficiency as a decoupling layer. Morphologies generated by narrow lithospheric thinning modes compare well with Atlantic-type rifted margins (e.g., Iberia–Newfoundland) while wide lithospheric thinning modes better apply to marginal seas characterized by higher initial geothermal gradients (e.g., South China Sea). …”
