Gravity anomalies and segmentation at the East Coast, USA continental margin
The free-air gravity 'edge effect' anomaly at rifted continental margins has generally been attributed to the transition between thick continental and thin oceanic crust. While crustal thinning is a major contributor, recent studies suggest that sediment loading and magmatism may significa...
