Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin (2023)
Journal Article
Ali, M., Koyi, H., Bosworth, W., Ligi, M., Ball, P. J., & Decarlis, A. (2023). Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin. Journal of Structural Geology, 175, Article 104955

The Red Sea basin includes a thick Middle to Late Miocene evaporitic succession that underwent halokinesis and caused intensive reshaping of the seafloor and the development of salt-tectonic structures. However, the geometry and kinematics of these s... Read More about Geometry and kinematics of the Middle to Late Miocene salt tectonics, central Egyptian Red Sea margin.

Red Sea rifting in central Egypt: constraints from the offshore Quseir province (2022)
Journal Article
Ali, M., Decarlis, A., Ligi, M., Ball, P., Bosworth, W., & Ceriani, A. (2022). Red Sea rifting in central Egypt: constraints from the offshore Quseir province. Journal of the Geological Society, 180(2), Article jgs2022-105. https://doi.org/10.1144/jgs2022-105

The formation of oceanic crust in the southern and central Red Sea is generally accepted to have started at c. 5 Ma. However, the nature of the crust in the northern Red Sea is still debated. This paper describes the rift architecture, dynamics and e... Read More about Red Sea rifting in central Egypt: constraints from the offshore Quseir province.
