DOI: 10.1016/j.gr.2017.03.007
Abstract: Despite many years of study, the processes involved in the post-breakup development of passive margins remain poorly understood. Integration of apatite fission track analysis (AFTA) and stratigraph ... read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jmarsys.2021.103546
Abstract: Abstract Using the method of process-oriented hydrodynamic modelling, this work investigates the dispersal of particles in stratified fluids on continental margins. The fundamental principle underlying this work is that particles can be upwelled across isopycnal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marpetgeo.2020.104635
Abstract: Abstract The rifting and breakup of continents, and subsequent seafloor spreading, give rise to passive continental margins, many of which are underlain by enormous volumes of igneous rocks and termed volcanic passive margins. The relationships… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.tecto.2017.04.018
Abstract: The causes of continental breakup are still poorly understood. More and more it becomes evident that classical concepts of deep-mantle versus intra-plate forces controlling continental breakup and shaping the subsequent evolution of the bordering passive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1029/2022gl101940
Abstract: The geodynamic response of continental margins to erosion may reveal current and past changes in the location of the continental slope. We model the three‐dimensional isostatic response to erosion along the retreating Beringian Margin to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1130/g46418.1
Abstract: Marine carbonate burial represents the largest long-term carbon sink at Earth’s surface, occurring in both deep-sea (pelagic) environments and shallower waters along continental margins. The distribution of carbonate accumulation has varied over geological history and… read more here.

Marine Gas Hydrate Geohazard Assessment on the European Continental Margins. The Impact of Critical Knowledge Gaps
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Applied Sciences"
DOI: 10.3390/app11062865
Abstract: This paper presents a geohazard assessment along the European continental margins and adjacent areas. This assessment is understood in the framework of the seafloor’s susceptibility to (i.e., likelihood of) being affected by the presence of… read more here.
