EFFECTS OF A TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT RHEOLOGY ON LARGE-SCALE CONTINENTAL EXTENSION
The influence of a temperature-dependent rheology on large-scale continental extension is investigated using a thin viscous sheet model. Numerical calculations of such a thin sheet subjected to an extensional boundary condition show the following results: At short times following the beginning of ex...
