Abstract. The formation of continental rift systems is characterised by the interplay of magmatic and tectonic processes. Their evolution involves a wide range of timescales, from centennial scales of...

The seismotectonics of the Northwestern (NW) Ethiopian plateau and the adjacent rift flanks were studied using local earthquake data recorded by broadband se...

In continental rifts, tectonic deformation, magmatic processes, and earthquakes interact dynamically reflecting the crust’s complex response to extensional stress and evolving subsurface and surface c...

"The plume is pulsing," said Earth Science professor Tom Gernon of the University of Southampton.

The mantle upwelling beneath the Afar rift may be influenced by tectonic processes in the overriding lithospheric plates that shape the distribution of both the compositional heterogeneities and abund...

Every beat leaves a different chemical signal in the rocks around the Ethiopian Rift for us to find.

InSAR study of deformation in the magmatically and geothermally active area of Dallol, Danakil, East African rift InSAR time series and velocity maps show three subsiding deformation signals on t...

Abstract. Rifts and rifted margins form when continents break apart and shape the continent-to-ocean transition on much of our planet. The sedimentary basins that result from continental rifting host ...

About Afar Dallol Drilling - ONset of sedimentary processes in an active rift basin The ADD-ON project (Afar Dallol Drilling) aims to explore drilling targets in the Danakil Depression (Afar, Ethiopi...

The Afar Stratoid project is discovering the origin and evolution of the volcanoes and tectonic activity of the Afar rift in East Africa. We do volcanology, seismology, structural geology, stratigraph...
