Continental Rifts and Passive Margins - Geology, Geophysics, and Geodynamics - 2017
Offered By: AGU via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the geology, geophysics, and geodynamics of continental rifts and passive margins in this comprehensive conference session from the 2017 AGU Fall Meeting. Delve into cutting-edge research presented by experts from prestigious institutions including Stanford Earth Sciences, USGS, University of Southampton, Tulane University, Columbia University, Victoria University of Wellington, University of Michigan, and University of Pisa. Gain insights into the complex processes shaping Earth's crust as speakers discuss their findings on rift formation, crustal evolution, and the transition from active rifting to passive margins. Enhance your understanding of these critical geological structures and their implications for plate tectonics, resource exploration, and global geodynamics.
