South Atlantic continental margins of Africa: a comparison of the tectonic vs climate interplay on the evolution of equatorial west Africa and SW Africa margins

open access: yes, 2005
The comparative review of 2 representative segments of Africa continental margin: the equatorial western Africa and the SW Africa margins, helps in analysing the main controlling factors on their development.

Structural inversion in the northern South China Sea continental margin and its tectonic implications

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2017
The northern South China Sea (SCS) continental margin was proposed to be an active margin during the Mesozoic. However, only a few papers discussed the Mesozoic structural evolution in this region.

Sources and mechanisms for the enrichment of highly reactive iron in euxinic Black Sea sediments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The deep basinal euxinic sediments of the Black Sea are enriched in iron that is highly susceptible to sulfidization compared to oxic/suboxic continental margin sediments in the Black Sea and oxic/dysoxic continental margin and deep-sea sediments ...

Gravimetric determination of the continental oceanic boundary of the Argentine continental margin (from 36°S to 50°S) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This paper presents the gravimetric analysis together with seismic data as an integral application in order to identify the continental?oceanic crust boundary (COB) of the Argentine continental margin from 36◦S to 50◦S in a continuous way.

Morphological structures relate to the location and extent of the seismogenic zone - bathymetric studies of the Sunda margin, Indonesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Earthquake history shows that the Sunda subduction zone of the Indonesian margin produces great earthquakes offshore Sumatra, whereas earthquakes of comparable magnitude are lacking offshore Java and the Lesser Sunda islands.

Structure and evolution of the continental margin off Norway and the Barents Sea

open access: yes, 2008
The Norwegian Margin formed in response to early Cenozoic continental breakup and subsequent opening of the Norwegian-Greenland Sea. There is a welldefined margin segmentation and the various segments are characterized by distinct crustal properties ...

Palaeoenvironment and Its Control on the Formation of Miocene Marine Source Rocks in the Qiongdongnan Basin, Northern South China Sea

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2014
The main factors of the developmental environment of marine source rocks in continental margin basins have their specificality. This realization, in return, has led to the recognition that the developmental environment and pattern of marine source rocks,

Denudation of the Côte d'Ivoire-Ghana transform margin from apatite fission tracks. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Apatite fission track analysis of samples from the shoulder (marginal ridge) of the Côte d'Ivoire-Ghana transform continental margin reveal a cooling of the margin between 85 and 65 Ma for the central and eastern parts of the ridge.
