Geodesy, the oldest science, has become an important discipline in the geosciences, in
large part by enhancing Global Positioning System (GPS) capabilities over the last 35 years …

The Main Ethiopian Rift is a key sector of the East African Rift System that connects the Afar
depression, at Red Sea–Gulf of Aden junction, with the Turkana depression and Kenya Rift …

We present a new global model of plate motions and strain rates in plate boundary zones
constrained by horizontal geodetic velocities. This Global Strain Rate Model (GSRM v. 2.1) …

The East African Rift (EAR) is a type locale for investigating the processes that drive
continental rifting and breakup. The current kinematics of this~ 5000 km long divergent plate …

Reconstructions of the relative positions of the India and Eurasia plates, using recently
revised histories of movement between India and Somalia and between North America and …

Abstract East African Rift System plate geometries and surface motions are some of the least
constrained in the context of global plate motion models. In this study, we used GPS data to …

The kinematic models and the associated orientation of extensional stress of the East
African Rift System have been subjected to much debate since a long time. In the past …

Using space geodetic observations from four techniques (GPS, VLBI, SLR and DORIS), we
simultaneously estimate the angular velocities of 11 major plates and the velocity of Earth's …

We present a model for the Jurassic to Present evolution of plate boundaries and oceanic
crust of the African plate based on updated interpretation of magnetic, gravity and other …

We use teleseismic waveform inversion, along with depth phase analysis, to constrain the
centroid depths and source parameters of large African earthquakes. The majority of seismic …
