What is Lithosphere Flexure and Margin Basins about?
This article discusses how sediments accumulating at continental margins load and flex the lithosphere, causing subsidence. It uses biostratigraphic data from boreholes in the Gulf of Lion and eastern US to determine basement depths over time and quantify the contribution of sediment loading versus other processes to subsidence. The results indicate sediment loading alone does not explain all of the observed subsidence.
