Structural inheritance, segmentation, and rift localization in the Gulf of Aden oblique rift

Bellahsen, Nicolas Leroy, Sylvie Autin, Julia

The structural evolution of the Gulf of Aden passive margins was controlled by its oblique divergence kinematics, inherited structures, and the Afar hot spot. The rifting between Arabia and Somalia started at 35 Ma just before the hot spot paroxysm (at 30Ma) and lasted until 18Ma, when oceanic spreading started. Fieldwork suggests that rift...
