Oblique rifting triggered by slab tearing: the case of the Alboran rifted margin in the eastern Betics

<p>The tectonic evolution of highly oblique continental margins that result from extension above lithospheric subduction–transform edge propagator (STEP) faults is poorly understood. Here, we investigate the case of the Alboran margin in the eastern Betics characterized by crustal thinning of...
