Testing the Origins of the Blue Ridge Escarpment
… linear, high-relief escarpments mark many of the world's passive margins. These Great Escarpments have been interpreted to be the result of isostatic flexure, parallel slope retreat, and divide migration which accompanies rifting. It is unclear whether all these escarpments share this origin. …

The development and application of microanalytical (U-Th)/He thermochronology
The (U-Th)/He thermochronmeter is the foremost tool available to geoscientists for the purposes of constraining the thermal evolution of the crust below 250°C. However, the potential of the technique is far from fully explored. The existing de facto (U-Th)/He age standard, the fluorapatite of Cerro …

The post-breakup evolution of the western Indian high-elevation passive margin
The tectonic development of the Western Indian high-elevation passive margin is complex. At least two major rifting events (India/Madagascar and India/Seychelles) and a major hotspot (The Reunion plume) are believed to have been instrumental in the formation and development of the margin. However, …
