Seismic structure of the continental margin of French Guiana : implications for the rifting and early spreading of the equatorial Atlantic
Recent studies of passive continental margins suggest that the rifting process produces a variety of structural styles. The along-strike continuity of these rifted margins is punctuated by significant lateral offsets, known as transform margins. Whilst many general features of both rift- and transfo...
