Abstract: The Alpine Tethys rifted margins were generated by a Mesozoic polyphase magma-poor rifting leading to the opening of the Piedmont-Ligurian “Ocean”. This latter developed through different phases of rifting that terminated with the exhumation of… read more here.

Abstract: The occurrence of km-scale exhumations during syn- and post-rift stages has been documented along Atlantic continental margins, which are also characterised by basins undergoing substantial subsidence. The relationship between the exhuming and subsiding domains is… read more here.

Abstract: During the terminal stages of Wilson cycles, remnants of magma‐poor margins may be incorporated into the orogens, whereas the magma‐rich margins often are lost in subduction due to low buoyancy. The understanding of magma‐rich margins… read more here.
