Feedbacks between sea-floor spreading, trade winds and precipitation in the Southern Red Sea

Testing feedbacks between climatic and geological processes are challenging. Here, the authors show that geomorphological features of the southern Red Sea margin are best interpreted by a feedback cycle between orographic precipitation, mid-ocean spreading and coastal magmatism, and that the feedbac...
