Late Oligocene–Miocene transgressions along the equatorial and eastern margins of Brazil
The seaboard of Brazil is a highly favorable setting for studying episodes of worldwide sea-
level rise because of its passive nature. Previous studies of the equatorial coast of Brazil …

Neotectonic reactivation of shear zones and implications for faulting style and geometry in the continental margin of NE Brazil
The eastern continental margin of South America comprises a series of rift basins developed
during the breakup of Pangea in the Jurassic–Cretaceous. We integrated high resolution …

Cenozoic uplift and erosion of structural landforms in NE Brazil
We investigate the evolution of uplifted areas in NE Brazil, which have been considered as
residual landforms. The study focuses on the 130km-long, 41km-wide Pereiro Massif (PM) …

Remote sensing analysis of depositional landforms in alluvial settings: Method development and application to the Taquari megafan, Pantanal (Brazil)
Traditional Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) topographic datasets hold limited
value in the geomorphic analysis of low-relief terrains. To address this shortcoming, this …

Review of tectonic inversion of sedimentary basins in NE and N Brazil: Analysis of mechanisms, timing and effects on structures and relief
Most intraplate areas worldwide are under compression characterized by thrust and strike-
slip deformations. The sources of the stresses in these regions are a combination of far-field …

Post-rift geomorphological evolution of a passive continental margin (Paraíba region, northeastern Brazil): insights from river profile and drainage divide analysis
The post-rift erosional history of elevated passive continental margins (EPCMs) has been
considered of low-rate tectonics across many regions worldwide. However, research in the …

Terraces, reefs, and valleys along the Brazil northeast outer shelf: deglacial sea-level archives?
Morphological features on low-latitude continental shelves have recorded past sea level
fluctuations. This study aims to recognize and interrogate, on the Rio Grande do Norte (RN …

Bedrock control on the Assu Incised Valley morphology and sedimentation in the Brazilian Equatorial Shelf
Abstract The Assu Incised Valley (AIV) is a new example of an incised-valley system located
on the Brazilian Equatorial continental shelf. This valley extends over 40 km from the present …
