What is East African Rift Border Fault Geometry about?
This document summarizes research on the relationship between border fault geometry in continental rift basins and the thickness of the elastic lithosphere. The researchers compiled data on border fault dimensions within the East African Rift system, which shows significant variability in border fault length and basin width. They find that border faults over 75km in length and basins wider than 25km occur in regions with deep seismicity and thick elastic lithosphere of over 25km. They propose that the elast
