Abstract: The Rukwa and North Malawi Rift Segments (RNMRS) both define a major riftâoblique segment of the East African Rift System and are often regarded as discrete rifts due to the presence of the uplifted Mbozi… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract. Continental rifts evolve by linkage and interaction of adjacent individual segments. As rift segments propagate, they can cause notable re-orientation of the local stress field so that stress orientations deviate from the regional trend.… read more here.
