Role of Large Igneous Provinces in continental break-up varying from “Shirker” to “Producer”
A Koptev, S Cloetingh - Communications Earth & Environment, 2024 - nature.com
Traditionally, the emplacement of the Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) is considered to have
caused continental break-up. However, this does not always seem to be the case, as …
