Oceanic detachment faults play a central role in accommodating the plate divergence at
slow-ultraslow spreading mid-ocean ridges. Successive flip-flop detachment faults in a …

Unusually deep earthquakes occur beneath rift segments with and without surface
expressions of magmatism in the East African Rift system. The Tanganyika rift is part of the …

Abstract Taupō volcano, New Zealand, is a large caldera volcano that has been highly
active through the Holocene. It most recently erupted∼ 1,800 years ago but there have been …

Although the deep, wide basins of the Western rift, Africa, have served as analogues for the
evolution of half‐graben basins, the geometry and kinematics of the border, intrabasinal …

Although magmatism may occur during the earliest stages of continental rifting, its role in
strain accommodation remains weakly constrained by largely 2‐D studies. We analyze …

Uturuncu volcano is situated in the Bolivian Andes, directly above the world's largest crustal
body of silicic partial melt, the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body (APMB). Uturuncu last erupted …

Continental rifting is a fundamental component of plate tectonics. Recent studies have
highlighted the importance of magmatic activity in accommodating extension during late …

During continental breakup, the locus of strain shifts from a broad region of border faulting
and ductile plate stretching to a narrow zone of magma intrusion in a young ocean basin …

A large seismic network deployed in the Icelandic highlands recorded> 100,000
earthquakes from 2009 to 2015. We develop a local magnitude scale, appropriate for use in …

We use a dense seismic network on the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland, to image a group of
earthquakes at 10–12 km depth, 2 km north-east of 2021 Fagradalsfjall eruption site. These …
