DOI: 10.1029/2022tc007670
Abstract: Ephemeral subaerial salt diapirs are gravitationally unstable and vulnerable to climate and tectonic activity due to the rheology and incompressibility of rock salt. Quantifying the kinematics of subaerial salt and clarifying the role of tectonics,… read more here.
