Rheological, thermal and isostatic constraints on continental lithosphere extension and compression
Thesis
Egan, S. (1988). Rheological, thermal and isostatic constraints on continental lithosphere extension and compression

Deep seismic reflection data has shown the importance of low angle faults and detachments in continental extensional tectonics. A quantitative model of continental lithosphere extension is presented, incorporating geometric, thermal and isostatic com...
