Evolution of the Southwestern Angolan Margin: episodic burial and exhumation is more realistic than long-term denudation
da Silva, Bruno Venancio; Hackspacher, Peter Christian ; Ribeiro, Marli Carina Siqueira ; ; ; Doranti-Tiritan, Carolina ; de Godoy, Daniel Françoso ; Constantino, Renata Regina (International Journal of Earth Sciences, 2018) [Artigo]
There are two main points of view regarding how continental margins evolve. The first one argues that the present-day margins have been developed by long-term denudation since a major exhumation episode, probably driven ... -
