Coupling Crustal-Scale Rift Architecture With Passive Margin Salt Tectonics: A Geodynamic Modeling Approach
Pichel, Leonardo Muniz; Huismans, Ritske Sipke; Gawthorpe, Rob; Faleide, Jan Inge; Theunissen, Thomas Louis Roger Dominique (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Continental rifted margins are often associated with widespread, thick evaporite (i.e., salt) deposits and pronounced salt tectonics. The majority of salt basins formed during the latest stages of rifting, prior to continental ... -
Halokinetic modulation of sedimentary thickness and architecture: A numerical modelling approach
Cumberpatch, Zoë A.; Finch, Emma; Kane, Ian A.; Pichel, Leonardo Muniz; Jackson, Christopher A.-L.; Kilhams, Ben; Hodgson, David M.; Huuse, Mads (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Subsurface salt flow can deform overlying strata and influence contemporaneous sedimentary systems. Studying salt-sediment interactions is challenging in the subsurface due to poor imaging adjacent to salt, and in the field ... -
How post-salt sediment flux and progradation rate influence salt tectonics on rifted margins: Insights from geodynamic modelling
Pichel, Leonardo Muniz; Huismans, Ritske Sipke; Gawthorpe, Rob; Faleide, Jan Inge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Continental rifted margins can be associated with widespread and thick salt deposits, which are often formed during the final stages of rifting, prior to breakup. These salt-bearing margins are typically characterized by ... -
Late-syn- to post-rift salt tectonics on wide rifted margins—Insights from geodynamic modeling
Pichel, Leonardo Muniz; Huismans, Ritske Sipke; Gawthorpe, Rob; Faleide, Jan Inge; Theunissen, Thomas Louis Roger Dominique (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Rifted margins are often associated with widespread and thick evaporite (salt) deposits and pronounced salt tectonics. The largest salt basins formed during the latest stages of rifting, immediately prior to continental ... -
Physical modelling of the interplay between salt-detached gravity gliding and spreading across complex rift topography, Santos Basin, offshore Brazil
Pichel, Leonardo Muniz; Ferrer, Oriol; Jackson, Christopher A.-L.; Roca, Eduard (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)The Santos Basin, offshore Brazil contains a complex set of salt-tectonic structures, the origins of which are debated, that is, the Albian Gap and the São Paulo Plateau (SPP). The Albian Gap is a ca. 450 km long, 60 km ...
