The Complex Vertical Motion of Intraplate Oceanic Islands Assessed in Santiago Island, Cape Verde

Abstract Dated paleosea level markers and eustatic sea level changes are necessary but not sufficient information to calculate vertical motion rates on oceanic islands. Therefore, we use a procedure in which we work progressively back in time to incorporate the more recent vertical motion rates impl...
