Abrupt transition from magma-starved to magma-rich rifting in the eastern Black Sea
The amount of magmatism that accompanies the extension and rupture of the continental lithosphere varies dramatically at rifts and margins around the world. Based on widely spaced geophysical transects, some margins are known to preserve a transition from magmatically robust to magmatically starved...
